A forgotten gem
29 April 2011
In the spring of 1972, I worked as the assistant manager at the Westgate, an old movie theater in Edina, Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis. We began screening what would become the longest running regular feature in Minneapolis history, "Harold and Maude". It ran for a total of 115 weeks, over 2 years. What most people forget when talking nostalgically about this incredible run is that "De Duva" was screened before every performance. People would leave the theater and say it was like watching a double feature even though "De Duva" was only 15 minutes. You don't have to know a thing about Ingmar Bergman's films to appreciate the satire and the pure silliness of the film. It was the perfect lead-in to "Harold and Maude".
