This will be an unforgettable evening as the Borscht Belt Historical Marker Project presents a special film screening inside one of the Catskills’ most iconic nightclubs. Step back in time to the golden era of comedy, music, and mid-century glamour as we celebrate the vibrant legacy of the Borscht Belt through film. This one-night-only event brings history to life with a screening that honors the Catskills a cultural landmark. Whether you're a lifelong local, a film lover, or a nostalgia seeker, this is your chance to experience the magic of the Borscht Belt in a setting as legendary as the era itself.
The highly praised film vividly portrays the lively culture of Catskill bungalow colonies, with the 1969 moon landing serving as its backdrop. Featuring Diane Lane, Liev Schreiber, Viggo Mortensen, and Tovah Feldshuh, the movie takes inspiration from bungalow colonies like Dr. Locker’s in Mountain Dale and Silverstein’s in Swan Lake, where screenwriter Pamela Gray spent her summers.
