Get ready for an unforgettable evening of adventure, music, and mischief at Calhoun’s Gem Theatre!
📅 Saturday, April 25
🕖 7:00 PM
📍 The Gem Theatre – Downtown Calhoun
Join us for a special showing of a wildly entertaining Southern classic, loosely inspired by Homer’s Odyssey. Follow the fast-talking Ulysses Everett McGill as he escapes a chain gang with his unlikely companions, Delmar and Pete, on a journey across 1930s Mississippi.
What starts as a mission to recover buried bank loot quickly turns into a series of unforgettable encounters — from mesmerizing sirens and a one-eyed cyclops to the infamous (and very touchy about his nickname) George “Baby Face” Nelson. Along the way, they cross paths with a campaigning governor, a KKK mob, and a mysterious blind prophet who delivers a haunting warning:
“The treasure you seek shall not be the treasure you find.”
Packed with humor, heart, and a toe-tapping soundtrack, this is a film adventure you won’t want to miss! 🎶🚂
Grab your friends, bring your family, and make plans to join us at The Gem for a night at the movies! 🍿🎥
