Redd Kross, Devo, David Cassidy, Leif Garrett, and a cavalcade of stars bring America’s relatably bleak future and romantically bizarre past to lava lamp-colored and cleverly-soundtracked life in Lucas Reiner’s Spirit of 76. Co-written by Roman Coppola with costumes by Sofia Coppola, don’t miss a rare 35th anniversary screening of this long out-of-print charming comedy.

In 2176, magnetic storms have ravaged the country, leaving it without a history or a future. Three time travelers are sent on an emergency mission to 1776 and accidentally land in 1976 where they are shepherded through the trends and trials of the day by two hilariously dippy teens in show-stopping performances by Redd Kross’s Jeff and Steve McDonald. In a just world these performances would have catapulted the brothers into movie stardom but we’re grateful to see them hold their own in a film that also features all-stars like Carl Reiner, Julie Brown, the Kipper Kids, Tommy Chong, Don Novello, Moon Unit Zappa, Olivia D’Abo, Geoff Hoyle, Barbara Bain, and so many more.
