Purple Rain, late night at Glasgow Film Theatre
Friday 1 July, 2022 at 11 p.m.
Special Late Night screening of Prince’s iconic rock musical drama. GFT will be serving themed cocktails and playing tunes from his back catalogue – don’t miss this chance to see Prince on the big screen and pay tribute to one of the most influential musicians of all time.
The 1984 cult classic Purple Rain catches a youthful Prince Rogers Nelson at the top of his game. The Kid (Prince) is the arrogant young frontman for The Revolution, who are locked in battle with another band (The Time, fronted by Morris Day) for a regular gig at their local nightclub. Adding to The Kid’s torments are troubles at home and a burgeoning romance with an aspiring singer.
A timeless classic with what has to be one of the greatest soundtracks in movie history.
GFT, 12 Rose Street, Glasgow G3 6RN
