Online tickets sales have ended, but tickets are still available for sale at the door!

UK 1983
DIRECTORS: TERRY JONES, TERRY GILLIAM
With something to offend most any sensibility, the comedy troupe of Monty Python offers this comprehensive and nonsensical guide to life—from birth to death. Filled with uproariously funny sketches and songs, the film is a grab bag of outrageous contemplations of the absurdity of life where everything is over the top and nothing is sacred ...well, perhaps one thing. (107 mins.)

Pre-film live music by Ah God, sponsored by PDX Pop Now!

Doors at 7pm; Music at 8pm; Film at dusk.

Entry for advance ticket holders is guaranteed until 8:30 PM. Advance tickets ensure that you will not have to wait in the ticket purchase line but do not guarantee entry after 8:30 PM.

Advance ticket holders who arrive after 8:30 PM but are not admitted to the screening (in the case of a sell-out) may exchange their tickets for another Top Down screening. There are no refunds or exchanges for arrivals after the film begins (c. 9 PM) or for entirely missed screenings. We appreciate your understanding.

A limited number of chairs are available on a first-come, first-serve basis, so feel free to bring a chair, pillow, or blanket, along with a light sweater or jacket. Please, no pets or outside food or drink. Day-of weather updates at nwfilm.org.
