Join us at the Rio Theatre for a 40th Anniversary screening of one of the most beloved rom-coms of the 1980s, Ron Howard's SPLASH. The success of the unlikely "fish out of water" fantasy fable lies somewhere between Howard's deft hand for smart, modern comedy and its pitch-perfect cast, especially Tom Hanks (whose utter charm and endearing 'everyman' turn would become his career's defining attribute) as a normal guy who happens to fall in love with a mermaid (Daryl Hannah). With John Candy, Eugene Levy.

"The movie that really showed Tom Hanks' promise as a deliverer of great comedy and heart-warming pathos." (Empire Magazine)

"'Splash,' an aquacade of myth and laughter, glimmers like moonlit tide. It's an enrapturing underwater romance pairing dry-lander Tom Hanks with mermaid Daryl Hannah." (Washington Post)
