Special Invitation from Marbletown Democrats and UlsterProgress

Join fellow progressives, 7:15pm Friday, Feb. 6th at the Rosendale Theatre for a screening of “Frost/Nixon”, a film which draws startling similarities between American democracy in the 70s and the present day.

The night will also include special guests Larry Beinhart, local author of “Wag The Dog” and “Salvation Boulevard”, Chronogram contributor, and Fulbright Fellow, as well as Art Richter, host of Radio Free Kingston on 1490 AM WKNY. Beinhart and Richter will welcome guests to a cocktail reception from 6:30pm to 7:15pm and will lead a discussion on “The News Media and Accountability: From Bush to Obama” immediately following the film.

“Frost/Nixon”, a Ron Howard film that has received five Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, is a dramatic retelling of the post-Watergate television interviews between British talk-show host David Frost and former president Richard Nixon. The movie stars Frank Langella, nominated for Best Actor, Michael Sheen, Sam Rockwell, and Kevin Bacon.

Tickets are $15. Proceeds to benefit the Marbletown Democratic Committee. The Rosendale Theatre is located at 401 Main Street in the heart of Rosendale. For more information, call 845-399-9300, or email ulsterprogress@gmail.com
