This season of Cocktail Cinema will explore four incredible films that shed light on the dark side of suburban living, revealing the hidden struggles and tribulations behind the facade of the perfectly manicured lawns and white picket fences. Join the Palm Springs Art Museum as they uncover the unsettling truths lurking behind the idyllic facade of suburbia.
June 13: The Stepford Wives
The secret to a Stepford wife lies behind the doors of the Men’s Association.
June 27: Get Out
A young African-American visits his white girlfriend’s parents for the weekend, where his simmering uneasiness about their reception of him eventually reaches a boiling point.
July 11: Edward Scissorhands
The solitary life of an artificial man – who was incompletely constructed and has scissors for hands – is upended when he is taken in by a suburban family.
July 25: Parasite
Greed and class discrimination threaten the newly-formed symbiotic relationship between the wealthy Park family and the destitute Kim clan.
