About Top Down:

"Join us on the panoramic parking rooftop at the Hotel deLuxe, SW 15th at Yamhill, for some warm starry nights filled with entertaining films, culinary treats, a little live music, and spectacular city views. The evenings begin at 8 p.m. with live music and refreshments. Gracie's Restaurant will offer easy-to-juggle meals, snacks, and cocktails, and additional beverages will be available from TAZO and BridgePort Brewing. The screenings start at dusk—8:45-9:15 p.m. depending on the light. Bring your favorite portable chair or blanket, but please, no pets or outside food and drink."

DUCK SOUP
DIRECTOR: LEO MCCAREY
US, 1933
The verbal and physical comedy roils at a relentless pace in this Marx Brothers masterwork. Wealthy Mrs. Teasdale (Margaret Dumont) personally offers to bail out the failing government of Fredonia—but only if Rufus T. Firefly (Groucho) is appointed President. His opening song—"If you think this country's bad off now, just wait until I get through with it!" —sets the tone for this delightfully absurd madcap farce.
