For those in Southern California, paranoia, conspiracy and political corruption take center stage at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica, February 6 through 10. We live in interesting and politically fraught times, no doubt, so what better way to count down until January 20, 2009, than to take in some classic cinema, including All the President’s Men, The Parallax View, The Manchurian Candidate, Executive Action and 1979’s under-regarded satire Winter Kills, directed by William Richert. Three Days of the Condor, helmed by Sydney Pollack and starring Robert Redford and Faye Dunaway, kicks off the series on February 6.

The Aero Theatre
is located at 1328 Montana Avenue in Santa Monica. Tickets for all the films in the series, as well as other special events, are available through Fandango, but for 24-hour recorded
