Movie night at Il Caffé brings the Sundance Official Selection for 2017: “Beatriz at Dinner,” starring Salma Hayek and John Lithgow. Hayek is superb as Beatriz, a holistic medical practitioner who is reluctantly invited to a dinner party after her car breaks down.
What follows is a funny-serious study of class distinctions, stereotypes, and white snobbery in Greater L.A. Also starring John Lithgow and Chloe Sevigny.
“Beatriz at Dinner” has been nominated for six awards at Independent Film Festivals, including Best Actress (Hayek), Best supporting Actor (Lithgow), and Best Director (Miguel Arteta).
Order dinner off the menu by 6 to enjoy the free movie at 7.
