"One of the best known and best loved Westerns of all time. A fine ensemble cast and one of the most memorable musical scores ever add to the classic story to make for a wonderful viewing experience." - DVD VERDICT REVIEW

“The inmates are taking over the asylum,” sneered a crusty studio head when Hollywood titans Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin and D.W. Griffith formed United Artists in 1918. Evolving into the first “studio without a studio,” thus eschewing crushing overhead expenses, UA would eventually forge partnerships with such independently-minded filmmakers as Buster Keaton, Billy Wilder, Stanley Kubrick, Woody Allen, Robert Altman, John Huston, Richard Lester, John Schlesinger, Martin Scorsese, etc. – while cleaning up at the box-office with its hugely successful James Bond and Pink Panther franchises - resulting in some of the most entertaining, adventurous, and Oscar-laden American (and foreign) movies of the last nine decades.
All through the month of August, The Loft celebrates the studio’s 90th Anniversary with some of the amazing United Artist films that have helped stoke the world’s love affair with the movies.

August 29th – September 4th:
THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN (1960)
“We deal in lead, friend.” Bum, bump-a-bump… Elmer Bernstein's iconic, Oscar-nominated theme underscores one of the screen's greatest Western adventures, as cinema's coolest gang of gunslingers led by Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, Robert Vaughn, Charles Bronson, James Coburn, et al., team up to protect a Mexican village from Eli Wallach's bandit horde. This intense action flick, full of colorful characters and breathtaking cinematography, was adapted from Akira Kurosawa's Japanese masterpiece Seven Samurai, but remains a genuine classic in its own right.
"They were seven ... they fought like seven hundred!"
