Yale, Yale Arts and Yale Library film screening. “Die Hard”

Film at Yale, Yale Arts and Yale Library present s film screening. 

“Die Hard” (John McTiernan, 1988, 35mm, 132 mins). 

Yippee-ki-yay! NYPD’s John McClane (Bruce Willis) battles Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) and his terrorist gang when they take the staff of the Nakatomi Corporation hostage in an LA skyscraper at an office party gone bad. It’s a Christmas movie. This explosion-happy blockbuster is “the very pinnacle of the ‘80s action movie, and if it’s not the greatest action movie ever made, then it’s damn close” (Andrew Collins).
