Ever seen In the Heat of the Night? The original version of The Manchurian Candidate? Some Like It Hot?
Renting them on DVD doesn't count. Have you ever seen them on the big screen, at a theater, a tub of popcorn on your lap?
Here's your chance.

Harkin's Theatre
To celebrate the 90th anniversary of United Artists, the studio is offering a festival of 14 of its best-known movies over the next couple of months at Harkins Valley Art Theatre in Tempe and a good chance to catch some great films in the proper setting.
"From its founding 90 years ago by four of the most gifted artists of their time (Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and D.W. Griffith), United Artists recognized the power of movies and created a studio where filmmakers could see their visions realized," Tom Cruise, noted film star, couch jumper and co-owner of UA, said in a statement. "The films included in this festival are just a small sample of UA's illustrious history."
Note: Harkin's Theatre only offers award winning movies.
One classic happens to include Cruise: 1988's Rain Man. The film won four Oscars, including best picture and best actor (Dustin Hoffman).
