THE DARK KNIGHT GALA
A NIGHT HONORING FILMMAKER CHRISTOPHER NOLANWednesday, July 16, 2008
IMAX Theatre | 600 E. Grand AvenueYou are cordially invited to a once-in-a-lifetime Gala evening honoring filmmaker Christopher Nolan!
Cinema/Chicago, the 44th Chicago International Film Festival and Warner Bros. Pictures proudly present the first Chicago showing of THE DARK KNIGHT, the follow-up to the action hit Batman Begins.

A dinner reception will follow the tribute and screening in the stunning Crystal Gardens at Navy Pier, lit up by a spectacular fireworks display. The Gala will benefit Cinema/Chicago, its year-round educational programs, and the 44th Chicago International Film Festival.
