Posted by: Readers of South Florida on the Cheap have a chance to attend a free advance screening of “Saturday Night,” which opens in theaters October 11, 2024.
“Saturday Night” is a reimagining of the 90 minutes before the first episode of the TV classic “Saturday Night Live,” entering its 50th year.
Here is the description of the film:
At 11:30 p.m. on October 11, 1975, a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers changed television – and culture – forever. Directed by Jason Reitman and written by Gil Kenan & Reitman, Saturday Night is based on the true story of what happened behind the scenes in the 90 minutes leading up to the first broadcast of “Saturday Night Live.” Full of humor, chaos, and the magic of a revolution that almost wasn’t, we count down the minutes in real time until we hear those famous words…
The film is rated R.
Free advance screening is:
- Monday, October 7, at AMC Aventura, at 7:30 p.m.
Here's the trailer, if you'd like to know more about the film.
Here is how to get free passes to “Saturday Night”:
- Monday, October 7, at AMC Aventura, at 7:30 p.m. Download passes here.
You will need to create a Sony account to download the passes if you don't have one already.
The number of passes are limited. Getting a pass doesn't guarantee seating.
It's smart to arrive early. Sneak previews are often overbooked to ensure a full house, so you must arrive early and prepared to wait in line. Seating is not guaranteed, just because you have a pass in hand. (By the way, movie studios also reserve seats for the press and VIPs. That’s why you see all of those seats with tape across them at every screening.)
