A Great Idea

In celebration of the upcoming Oscars®, AMC Theatres will host an “AMC Best Picture Showcase” event Saturday, Feb. 24, at 78 select AMC theatres nationwide* (check local listings for availability and show times). The day-long event will showcase the five films nominated by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for “Best Picture.” Guests are invited to attend the event through an exclusive offer of an AMC Best Picture Showcase All-Day Pass, which allows moviegoers to see all five films for one ticket, priced at $30. AMC Best Picture Showcase All-Day Pass holders will also receive a large popcorn and a large drink, with unlimited free refills on both concession items for the entire day. The five films, “Babel,” “The Departed,” “Letters from Iwo Jima,” “Little Miss Sunshine” and “The Queen,” will play back-to-back throughout the day in one dedicated auditorium. Guests who purchase an All-Day Pass will also receive a keepsake lanyard with a hanging collectible pass, which features the five nominated films and allows guests to come and go as they please. The AMC Best Picture Showcase is valued at more than $55. Guests can find a theatre in their area hosting the AMC Best Picture Showcase by visiting www.amctheatres.com. AMC Best Picture Showcase advance ticket sales began earlier this month, on a first-come, first-served basis online at amctheatres.com or by visiting the box office or Guest Services area at any theatre hosting the event. AMC Best Picture Showcase schedule (all times local; schedule is the same nationwide): “Babel” 11:00 a.m. “The Queen” 1:45 p.m. “The Departed” 3:45 p.m. “Letters From Iwo Jima” 7:00 p.m. “Little Miss Sunshine” 9:45 p.m.
