Hungry for an old-fashioned Spaghetti Western?

 

Spaghetti Western Wednesdays

We're excited to announce the return of Spaghetti Western Wednesdays! Every Wednesday night through March, come and enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet featuring spaghetti, salad, bread/butter and our choice of an old western to watch. Doors & food at 6:00 pm / Film at 6:30 pm.

Spaghetti-Western Wednesday presents some of the more obscure films from Hollywood's most cherished genre: The Western.

Film has always been “A reflection of our society, and its views and values at the time.”

Therefore, we present these films not as an endorsement of their content, which do not accurately represent Native peoples and oftentimes include outright racist depictions of these characters, but as an opportunity to dialogue about the ways in which the same films might be viewed today.

We welcome you to the Tin Pan for this series of an American staple of cinema. These classic films hold an indelible importance in our cinema and our history, they also have the potential to do damage if not viewed within the understanding of the tapestry of our ever evolving country.

We welcome you to watch, perhaps laugh and to think, to be entertained and we invite you to honor the original Peoples of this land.

Tin Pan Theater in downtown Bend is where you need to be each Wednesday night, from now until March. $25 gets you a spaghetti buffet meal and a low-budget Western film shot in Italy! How fun!
