“Baby Doll” Screening With Academy Award Nominee Carroll Baker

“Possibly the dirtiest American-made motion picture that has been legally exhibited,” wrote TIME in 1956 of Baby Doll (Elia Kazan).

Sicilian interloper Eli Wallach, steamed when his new cotton gin goes up in smoke, decides to revenge himself on suspect Karl Malden by seducing his thumb-sucking child bride Carroll Baker.

Join us for an Oscar worthy evening of film and conversation. Actress Carroll Baker and film historian Foster Hirsch will be joined by The National Arts Club’s curator Robert Yahner to discuss behind-the-scenes stories in the making of the film, Baker’s career, and other jewels of the great eras in filmmaking.
