After getting separated on Mount Katahdin, Donn faced terrifying isolation, navigating 80 miles of rugged terrain alone. His survival captivated the nation, earning him a medal from President Roosevelt.

Two shows only! Thursday, Nov. 14 at 2 p.m. and Saturday, Nov. 16 at 2 p.m.
“It’s not just writing and direction that ultimately cement the film’s status as a classic text, though; it’s the performance by Stanwyck as the sexy, manipulative, cold-blooded femme fatale.” - Joe Lipsett, Bloody Disgusting
