A special screening of the classic comedy from Elaine May. Charles Grodin delivers one of his best performances as Lenny Cantrow, a man certain that something better is just around the corner. Days after marrying his naïve, doting wife Lila (Jeannie Berlin), Lenny meets Kelly Corcoran (the legendary Cybill Shepherd), the sophisticated blond bombshell he believes is his true love. The Heartbreak Kid is a razor-sharp comedy of self-delusion and romantic opportunism, satirizing the American pursuit of perfection with biting humour and one of cinema’s most brilliantly awkward breakups.
