Description

The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to partner with Theatrikos Theatre Company to bring movies to Downtown Flagstaff!


This series continues on Wednesday, Dec. 4 with the Flagstaff premiere of “The Last Rifleman” at 7:00 p.m. at Theatrikos Theatre Company.


Inspired by a true story, Pierce Brosnan plays Artie Crawford, a World War II veteran living in a care home in Northern Ireland who has just lost his wife. On the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings, he decides to escape his care home and embarks on a journey to France to pay his final respects to his best friend.


He embarks on an arduous but inspirational journey from Northern Ireland to France to find the courage to face the ghosts of his past.


“The Last Rifleman” is loosely based on the true story of British D-Day veteran Bernard Jordan, who left his care home in England to travel to France.



Theatrikos Theatre Company is located at 11 W. Cherry Ave. in Downtown Flagstaff.



This partnership and collaboration is made possible by a generous grant from Arizona Community Foundation of Flagstaff
