date(s)
time
7:00 pm

Join ASHM at the Bryn Mawr Film Insitute for to view the classic 1933 Greta Garbo film, “Queen Christina.”

The gender-bending Queen Christina of Sweden has always resisted marriage, but an encounter with a Spanish envoy forces her to weigh passion against duty to the throne. Packed with queer-coded sequences still possible in the Pre-Code era, this lavish costume drama finds Greta Garbo at her most luminous and iconic. ASHM Curator Brett Peters will participate in a post-screening conversation.

*Please Note: This program takes place at the Bryn Mawr Film Institute, 824 W. Lancaster Avenue, Bryn Mawr, PA 19010. Purchase tickets with the link below.
