Attention Los Angeles film lovers! ShowtimeSpot has teamed up with Searchlight Pictures and The Alex Theatre to offer an unforgettable cinematic experience. We're giving away a limited number of free tickets to early 35mm screenings of Wild Horse Nine, the latest from Academy Award-winning filmmaker Martin McDonagh. Starring John Malkovich and Sam Rockwell, this film has already earned praise as "another stellar entry in McDonagh's repertoire."
If you're in the L.A. area, this is your chance to see the film in the glorious 35mm format—a rarity these days. Plus, attendees will have access to exclusive merchandise and, on one night, a Q&A with the talent. These screenings are among the only opportunities to experience Wild Horse Nine on celluloid in Los Angeles, so don't miss out.
Screenings and How to Enter
The special screenings take place on Thursday, November 5, and Thursday, November 12, at The Alex Theatre in Glendale. On November 5, shows begin at 6:30 PM and 9:00 PM. On November 12, the screening and Q&A start at 7:20 PM. To win free tickets, simply click the appropriate link to provide your email address—one for the November 5 screening and another for the November 12 event. Be sure to indicate if you'd like to bring a guest, and RSVP early to secure your spot. Confirmed guests will receive an email confirmation.
Given the limited number of tickets, we recommend acting fast. If you'd rather guarantee your seat, you can purchase tickets directly through The Alex's website.
Why You Can't Miss This Event
Wild Horse Nine is set just before the 1973 Chilean coup. CIA partners and longtime friends Chris (Malkovich) and Lee (Rockwell) are sent to Easter Island—a place Chris has always wanted to visit. But their business trip takes a dark turn when they're confronted by their pasts, and Chris's age complicates matters when he befriends two rebellious students (Mariana di Girolamo and Ailín Salas), putting their mission at risk.
The Alex Theatre, a historic venue built in 1925, is a beloved arthouse that recently installed a 70mm booth to accommodate Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. Now, it's offering one of the few chances to see McDonagh's latest in a traditional film format. In an era where the moviegoing experience is evolving, this is a nostalgic and intimate way to enjoy cinema.
