Back to the Future

This year marks the Los Angeles Conservancy‘s 28th Annual “Last Remaining Seats” Event in Los Angeles and is expected to draw in crowds of over 10,000 people to their downtown LA screenings. With a handful of historic theaters in the downtown Los Angeles area playing host to such films as Citizen Kane, West Side Story, The Lady Eve and fan-favorite, 1985’s “Back to the Future”.

Special guests from the film; Christopher Lloyd (Doc Brown), Lea Thompson (Lorraine Baines McFly), Claudia Wells (Jennifer Parker) and Don Fullilove (Goldie Wilson) will be on hand for the 8pm screening that will be hosted by film critic/historian; Leonard Maltin at the The Theatre at Ace Hotel. The Cast will answer questions from the audience and talk about their experiences working on the movie. [Note: Thanks to the powerful promotional efforts of our friends over at backtothefuture.com  who reached out to over 14,000 fans via email about the screening, the 8pm showing of Back to the Future completely SOLD OUT in less than a day!]
