This Is Spinal Tap
Saturday, February 7 at 7 PM
Strand Theatre
Actor and Director Rob Reiner passed away a few weeks ago, and Bill Justice wanted to sponsor one of Reiner's many great films. We chose his first as a director: This Is Spinal Tap.
Reiner appears in the film along with Harry Shearer, Michael McKean, and Christopher Guest as the most unforgettable rock legends who never existed.
Hilarious, but all too accurate, at the same time.
