Midnight at the Tivoli - Planes, Trains and Automobiles Midnight at the Tivoli - Planes, Trains and Automobiles . Please Note --> This is a Past Event!! . Date: 12/28/2012 Time: 12:00 AM 5021 Highland Avenue Downers Grove, IL 60515 Phone: 630-968-0219 Event Description: The Tivoli Theatre is excited to announce its upcoming feature as part of its midnight movie series: the hilarious holiday-travel comedy “Planes, Trains & Automobiles,” starring Steve Martin as businessman Neal Page and John Candy as Del Griffith. Sympathize with and laugh at the mismatched pair’s unfortunate journey to Chicago from New York on Friday, December 28th! The film will be presented on Tivoli’s new 4K digital projection and sound system. Tickets are priced at only $5 and are available for purchase at the Tivoli Theatre box office, located at 5021 Highland Avenue in Downers Grove. “Planes, Trains & Automobiles” [R] was based on an actual trip taken by legendary producer, writer and director John Hughes. This film marked a move away from his wildly famous teen angst films and was a success. In the film, Page boards a plane from New York to Chicago two days before Thanksgiving and unfortunately ends up sitting next to overly talkative but good-hearted traveling shower ring salesman, Griffith. After their plane ends up in Wichita because of a blizzard, the two men end up sharing a sketchy motel room in which they are robbed and accidentally set fire to their rental car during their 3-day trek to Chicago. Despite the numerous mishaps, they bond and form a friendship that reminds viewers of what the holidays are really about. Be sure not to miss out on Steve Martin’s and John Candy’s comedic squabbling with this special Tivoli Theatre presentation! Before the midnight film, head over to the Tivoli Bowl for $2 bowling!
