6:30pm Network (1976, Sidney Lumet)
6pm Bicentennial pre-show by Deserted Films
We’re excited as hell, and you don’t have to wait anymore!
Network was the first film we programmed when we teamed up with the Palm Springs Public Library to plan our Summer Semiquincentennial film series back in January. But the studio held it back for a big restoration, so now it’ll be the last in the series!
Come see Sidney Lumet’s Network on the Camelot’s BIG screen, just in time for the 2026 election season!
Aside from its darkly satirical tone (you will laugh and despair simultaneously!), everyone and everything in Sidney Lumet’s landmark film is so finely tuned, so pressurized, so tapped into the nation’s increasing and destabilizing anxiety, that you’ll leave the Palm Springs Cultural Center feeling a little exhausted (but in a good way!). That was kind of Lumet’s thing! And believe us, the effect is more profound on the BIG SCREEN!!! We programmed 12 Angry Men a couple of summers ago and realized with the crowd that Lumet's worlds become something else entirely when viewed theatrically. Of course the message here is even more relevant in 2026. Paddy Chayefsky’s award winning screenplay is perfect. Epic performances by Faye Dunaway, Peter Finch, William Holden, Ned Beatty, and Robert Duvall don’t hurt!
It’s a special Fall add-on to our Summer series and we hope to see you there.
And thanks for your support!
