Movies & More! Spaghetti Western Night

  • La Stalla and The Newtown Theatre 18 Swamp Road / 120 N State Street Newtown, PA 18940 (map)

This fun, quirky event will feature a full spaghetti dinner at La Stalla followed by a classic “spaghetti western” movie at the theatre.

The night starts at La Stalla at 5:30 p.m. where guests will enjoy a family-style dinner of spaghetti, meatballs, Ceasar salad, bread and dessert. After dinner, guests will move to the theatre for a screening of 1966’s “Django” which will start at 7:30 p.m.

A “spaghetti western” is the nickname for a subgenre of films made by Italian directors in the 1960s and 70s. These often low-budget movies were shot primarily in Almeria and the Tabernas Desert in Spain. The main characters in spaghetti westerns are often anti-heroes with questionable morals and motives. They are frequently rugged, unshaven, and sunburnt, in contrast to the clean-looking heroes of traditional westerns. 

Directed by Sergio Corbucci, “Django” follows a mysterious, gun-slinging drifter named Django (Franco Nero) who drags a coffin behind him as he wanders into a desolate border town torn apart by a gang of racist ex-Confederates and a group of Mexican bandits. Torn between greed and justice, he becomes embroiled in the violent struggle between the two factions.
