Purple Rain - Classic Film Screening

The jaw dropping dance moves, passionate and provocative lyrics and intoxicating magnetism of PRINCE is what it’s all about when Mendocino Film Festival presents Purple Rain, the next film in the Classic Film Series at Coast Cinemas. While some may chuckle at occasional over the top performances there is absolutely no denying Prince’s overwhelming power and magnificence. Neither can you deny that this is a truly classic, incredible bad/good film that deserves to be seen on the big screen to appreciate.

Regarding the film, Rolling Stone said it best: “Purple Rain is, and remains, both one of his greatest works and the greatest opportunity that his fans will likely ever have to know him. Its success, and its longevity, may only have intensified the mystery surrounding who he was and what made him tick, but if you pay close enough attention, he tells us all that we need to know. It fills the space between the man and the legend: Do you want him? Or do you want me? ‘Cause I want you.”
