Seeing Red Film Series: Top Secret!

Top Secret! is a 1984 action comedy film that parodies various film styles such as musicals starring Elvis Presley, spy films of the Cold War era, and World War II films. Val Kilmer, in his film debut, stars as an American rock star sent behind the Iron Curtain to East Germany. Produced by the same team behind Airplane, the film was considered a box office bomb at the time of its release but has gone on to become a cult classic.

Seeing Red: Cold War Blockbusters of the 1980s is a series of free, outdoor film screenings that explore and examine the heightened anxiety and fear that marked the last decade of the Cold War.
