King Kong
When: November 19th 7:00pm to 10:00pm
Where: Warnors Theatre 1400 Fulton Street
King Kong is the father of all modern monster movies. It first thrilled audiences in 1933, and its special effects are quite impressive considering the time period in which it was made.
The film tells of a gigantic, prehistoric, island-dwelling ape called Kong. It is especially noted for its stop-motion animation by Willis O’Brien and a groundbreaking musical score by Max Steiner.
Doors open at 6:00 PM followed by a pipe organ concert at 6:30 PM
Film starts at 7:00 PM
$5 per person
Children 12 and under are FREE!
Typically those who dress in film get in free, but this month anyone who brings a NEW blanket gets in FREE! We’re helping Fresno’s MEAL to collect blankets to be distributed to Fresno’s homeless this holiday season, as part of the 2nd annual #KeepFresnoWarm blanket drive.
*For those who are interested in an adult beverage, Frank’s Place will be open before, during, and after the film.

I love where I live, and I also love what I do. I'm lucky to be able to work in a profession in which I get to build relationships; one that has me meeting new people each and every day and helping them to build new lives in my beloved city. I'm lucky enough to work in a profession in which I can marry cutting-edge technologies and marketing techniques to good, old-fashioned, nose-to-the-grindstone work. I am lucky enough to work in a profession that allows me to work as an advocate for my clients; to use every tool at my disposal to get a job done well for them, and with as little stress and expense as possible.
I love my city. I love my job. One inspires my excellence for the other.
Fresno? I say FresYES
