From the slums of Paris to the limelight of New York, legendary French singer Edith Piaf's life is explored in this biopic. Raised in poverty, Edith's magical voice and her passionate romances and friendships with the biggest stars of the period made her a star all around the world known as the Little Sparrow. But her attempts to tame her tragic destiny resulted in her untimely death. In French and English with English subtitles.

"Hurtling and impassioned, driven by some of the greatest popular music ever recorded, this wildly overripe and unkempt biopic is a true experience."

Bonfire, Jazz, and a Film

You are invited to stop by the Opera House before each Ouray Movie Club screening and socialize from 6 to 6:30 p.m.

On 12/21 we'll feature a classy DJ mix of european style jazz (including the music of Edith Piaf). And, before you head over to the Opera House, be sure to attend the annual Community Bonfire on Sixth Ave, starting at 5 pm, featuring chili, pizza, and good cheer. Its part of a Ouray Holiday. What a night!

Movie Club Clarification

There has been much confusion on the streets of Ouray, the Ouray Movie Club is not the same as the Friday Night Movie Club. The Friday Night Club is being run by the Ouray Entertainment Company and is not affiliated with us. We will continue to show the best in film festival, independent, and award winning movies at the Opera House, twice a month, starting on or about January 2008.
