July 19 - Funny Face
Musical Guest: Gerry Finney
Food Truck: Yippie Trippie & The Porkstars
“A timeless musical treat and the most fun you can have with really elegant clothes on.”
David Parkinson, Empire Magazine
This film version of the 1927 George Gershwin Broadway musical Funny Face utilizes the play's original star, Fred Astaire, as well as several of the original tunes, and then goes merrily off on its own. Astaire is cast as a fashion photographer, Dick Avery, who is sent out to find a "new face." It doesn't take Dick long to discover Jo (Audrey Hepburn), an owlish Greenwich Village bookstore clerk. Acting as Pygmalion to Jo's Galatea, Dick whisks the wide-eyed girl off to Paris and transforms her into the fashion world's hottest model, and, along the way, he falls in love.
