Join us for a special evening with Academy Award-nominated, Golden Globe winning actress Carroll Baker,
featuring a rare screening of one of the most controversial and brilliant films of the 50s
When released, Time Magazine called director Elia Kazan's Baby Doll "possibly the
dirtiest American-made motion picture that has been legally exhibited," while
Cardinal Spellman condemned it from the pulpit of St Patrick's Cathedral. Making his
Hollywood debut, Sicilian interloper Eli Wallach, steamed when his new cotton gin goes up in smoke, decides to revenge
himself on suspect Karl Malden by seducing his thumb-sucking child bride Carroll Bakerwho's "not ready for marriage."
Incandescently directed and acted, this black comedy was expanded by Tennessee
Williams from two of his own one-act plays. USA, 1956, 114 min
