Salvatore Di Vita (played by multiple actors) is a famous director who\, as a child\, formed a tight bond with local film projectionist Alfredo (Philippe Noiret). Upon hearing news of Alfredo’s death\, Salvatore reflects on those formative years as he prepares to return home for his friend’s funeral. \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay has been showing Cinema Paradiso annually for most of its nine-plus years of operation. Shady Ave Magazine recently declared that “Cinema Paradiso has become something of a signature film for The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center.” \n\n\n\n“It’s really exciting to watch people watch that film for the first time\,” Lindsay CEO Carolina Pais-Barreto Thor told Shady Ave Magazine. “It’s just a fantastic film\, and it became a perennial.” URL:https://thelindsaytheater.org/event/cinema-paradiso-at-the-lindsay/ CATEGORIES:Classics ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://thelindsaytheater.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Cinema-Paradiso-2025-Slider.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260711T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260711T123000 DTSTAMP:20260713T173527 CREATED:20260623T145551Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260623T145657Z UID:10000187-1783767600-1783773000@thelindsaytheater.org SUMMARY:'Minions & Monsters' Sensory Friendly Screening DESCRIPTION:Enjoy the minions’ latest animated shenanigans in an unhurried environment.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets Here!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe minions are back on the big screen for more kid-friendly hijinks.

The three Minions spinoffs take place before the original Despicable Me and showcase centuries of the Minions’ lighthearted brand of chaos before meeting Gru. \n\n\n\nMinions & Monsters reveals the story of how the Minions conquered 1920s Hollywood\, became movie stars\, lost everything\, unleashed monsters onto the world\, and then banded together to try and save the planet from the mayhem they had just created. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay has been proudly holding sensory friendly screenings since 2017. These screenings provide an option for families\, children\, and adults impacted by autism and other special needs to watch films together in a low-stress environment. \n\n\n\nWe lower the film’s volume\, keep on dim house lights\, and have a door open to restrooms and the lobby throughout the film. Trailers are eliminated to reduce the necessary “sit time.” Staffing levels are also increased to allow a personal\, unhurried cinematic experience for everyone.  \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay usually offers sensory friendly screenings of every family-friendly film we play. Recent examples include sensory friendly screenings of Zootopia 2\, Hoppers\, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie\, The Mandalorian & Grogu and Toy Story 5.

Tickets are free\, but RSVPing via the sign-up form on this page is recommended due to space limitations. \n\n\n\n“These aren’t just films\, they’re conversations\,” says Dr. Dykes. “These stories reflect real issues affecting families\, children and communities every day. By supporting this showcase\, audiences are also supporting local youth\, local artists\, and a nonprofit organization committed to using the arts as a vehicle for education\, advocacy and change.” \n\n\n\nDr. Dykes is a Penn State University alumnus with a Master of Fine Arts degree and Doctorate of Education in Leadership and Administration from Point Park University. She established Dee Annette in 2017 and has since made sure that the youths they serve are are involved in every step of the creative process. Some act alongside her and other adults\, while others remain behind the camera. \n\n\n\n“Regardless of their role\, they are active participants in bringing these stories to life and finding their own voices through the arts\,” says she says. \n\n\n\nThe four shorts screening during this showcase explore difficult subject matter and contain messages designed to educate\, inspire and encourage healing. They are: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n• Shadowed Lies (14min): An unfaithful husband’s plan to eliminate his family takes an unexpected turn. Dr. Dykes says this film was designed to remind young people who “struggle to identify safe and trustworthy relationships” that “there are also people who genuinely care and want to help.” \n\n\n\n• Tinsel and Terror (8min): A mother is attacked by her boyfriend\, forcing her children into a desperate race against time to save her. This film “addresses domestic violence and the impact it has on children\,” says Dr. Dykes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n• Echoes of Maybe (TBD): Dovie’s single day of celebration unravels into emotional chaos\, forcing her to confront betrayal\, grief and fractured relationships. “The film encourages viewers to cherish their relationships and not take time for granted\,” says Dr. Dykes. \n\n\n\n• HIM (2min): A young girl is confined to a room where unimaginable trauma occurs—until one day\, an unexpected guest changes everything. HIM was created during the Me Too movement “to give young girls a voice\,” says Dr. Dykes. \n\n\n \n\n \n \n Emerging Filmmakers Showcase with Dee Annette Domination Theater Co.

Productions presents: Diversity in Film Vol. 2 DESCRIPTION:The Lindsay’s next Emerging Filmmakers Showcase features 10 locally made shorts and a panel of film industry professionals discussing the importance of telling stories from many different perspectives. \n\n\n\nPittsburgh-based 3.B.T. Productions is returning to The Lindsay for its second Diversity in Film talk and screening. 3.B.T was founded by local filmmakers Xayne Allen\, Delaney Hathaway and Charlie Grey in 2021. Their first Diversity in Film event took place at The Lindsay in April 2025. \n\n\n\nDiversity in Film Vol. 2 is set for Thursday\, July 23\, at 7 p.m. The evening will kick off with the panel discussion in The Lindsay’s Community Room and move to our Large Screening Room for the shorts showcase. Tickets are free\, and we recommend RSVPing in advance via the sign-up form on this page due to space limitations. \n\n\n\n“The first Diversity in Film event proved that there’s a real hunger for stories and conversations that reflect the full spectrum of our communities\,” says Allen. “This year\, we’re taking everything that worked and making it even bigger. Diversity in Film Vol. 2 is designed to create meaningful conversations alongside unforgettable screenings.” \n\n\n\n3.B.T.’s presenting sponsor for this event is Unity Concord Real Estate. They are also being supported by Valentour’s Family Restaurant\, the Association of Latino Professionals for America Pittsburgh Chapter\, and The Urban League Young Professionals of Greater Pittsburgh. \n\n\n\nThis year’s panelists are: \n\n\n\n• Adam Snook\, founder of 7to8 Production & Distribution. Snook works closely with this region’s independent film ecosystem. Wire\, a 7to8-produced film\, screened at The Lindsay earlier this year as an Emerging Filmmakers Showcase. \n\n\n\n• Lee Davis\, a film producer\, community advocate and founder of Lee Davis & Associates Consulting LLC. \n\n\n\n• Chanell Jones\, an actor\, music supervisor\, and founder of Streamline Asset Consulting. \n\n\n\n• Dr. Cathryn Calhoun\, the August Wilson African American Cultural Center’s director of education and community engagement. \n\n\n\n• Morgan McHenry\, a Pittsburgh-based special effects makeup artist. Her work on the 2026 Pittsburgh 48 Hour Film Project short The Ballad of the Bard earned a Best Make Up and Hair award and contributed to her team’s Best Film victory. \n\n\n\nAllen is confident that their conversation\, plus this opportunity to watch 10 fantastic shorts on the big screen\, will bolster 3.B.T.’s ongoing efforts toward “building a stronger creative community in Pittsburgh.” \n\n\n\n“We don’t want diversity to be a once-a-year conversation\,” he says. “We want it to be woven into the fabric of our local film community.” \n\n\n\n \n \n 3BT presents Diversity in Film Volume 2 Reservation Sign up\n \n \n LinkedInThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Number of Tickets(Required)Phone Number(Required)Email(Required)\n \n Any Special Accommodations (Seating Accessibility\, etc.)?

Would you jump at an opportunity to have that experience before the film’s July 31 release date? \n\n\n\nThen you should definitely get your tickets asap for The Lindsay’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day preview screening on Thursday\, July 30\, at 7:30 p.m.! Tickets to this event and other Brand New Day showings are currently on sale. \n\n\n\nThis early screening will be introduced by Dave Bishop\, co-owner of Sewickley’s Big Bang Comics and Collectibles; and Phillip Thompson (aka DJ Big Phil)\, a multi-hyphenate artist and director of Collections in Black\, a documentary about Black comic book culture and contributions throughout history. \n\n\n\nSpider-Man: Brand New Day is the fourth Spider-Man standalone film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
