Chez Classics at GV: The Apartment

The first of two holiday films presented by the Chez Artiste folks, now at Greenwood Village, the first, Billy Wilder's The Apartment. Professor John Anzalone will provide a brief introduction to the film and a host a lively presentation and Q&A after the film! There is a melancholy gulf over the holidays between those who have someplace to go, and those who do not. “The Apartment” is so affecting partly because of that buried reason: It takes place on the shortest days of the year, when dusk falls swiftly and the streets are cold, when after the office party some people go home to their families and others go home to apartments where they haven’t even bothered to put up a tree. On Christmas Eve, more than any other night of the year, the lonely person feels robbed of something that was there in childhood and isn’t there anymore.
