The Majestic Theater was honored to welcome Gettysburg College Trustee Gordie Beittenmiller, along with Jake Boritt and Gettysburg History, for the premiere of their documentary "The Gettysburg Book: A Father, Son & The Killer Angels,” on July 3. Gordie and Jake were joined by Gettysburg College Prof. Ian Isherwood and author Jeff Shaara after the screening for a panel discussion, sharing how this project came to life. The Majestic experienced firsthand the impact of Gordie’s own entrepreneurship, bringing together a sold-out crowd for this premiere screening, and we thank him for his support of Gettysburg College students through his commitment.

Can you believe we only have four more weeks of Summer Classic movies?!

Join us in the Main Hall on July 29 at 7:30 PM for Somewhere in Time (1980). Starring Christopher Reeve, Jane Seymour, and Christopher Plummer, this classic film tells the story of a Chicago playwright who uses self-hypnosis to travel back in time and meet the actress whose vintage portrait hangs in a grand hotel. We wish we could go back in time and experience this year’s Summer Classic series all over again!

Looking to add some extra fun to this week’s visit? Richard Collier travels back to 1912 to meet Elise McKenna, so we want you to dress in your period attire to help this film come to life at the Majestic!

The Odyssey is back on the big screen, but how closely does Christopher Nolan’s blockbuster capture the complexity of Homer’s epic?

Associate Professor of Ancient Greek & Roman Studies Rachel Lesser reviews the new film, examining its ambitious scope, its reimagining of Odysseus, and the diminished roles of women in the story.

Spoilers ahead, and plenty to discuss! 🎬🏛️
