Whidbey Island Film Festival:
Screwball Comedies!

What’s Up Doc? (1972)

In a bustling hotel, a chaotic mix of characters clash over identical plaid cases, setting off a series of mishaps and misunderstandings. Amidst mistaken identities and stolen luggage, music professor Howard Bannister (Ryan O’neal) and spontaneous college student Judy Maxwell (Barbara Streisand) find themselves entangled in a whirlwind adventure across San Francisco. As they navigate a comedy of errors, their paths intertwine in a riotous chase through the city, leading to an unexpected and uproarious courtroom climax. Laughter, chaos, and unexpected connections ensue in this madcap caper through the streets of San Francisco.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts would like to begin by acknowledging that we gather on the ancestral homelands, originally known as Tscha-kole-chy (SHA-KOL-CHI) in Lushootseed (LU-SHOOT-SEED), of the Coastal Salish Peoples, on the lands of the lower Skagit, Tulalip (tuh·lay·luhp), Swinomish (SWIN-ə-mish), Snohomish (snō-hō-mish), Stillaguamish (still-uh-GWAH-mish), and Suquamish (soo-kwah-mish), who have lived in the Salish Sea basin since time immemorial and have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands.

We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and we honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Please join us in expressing our deepest respect and gratitude to the indigenous people of this territory and for their enduring care and protection of the land in which we currently occupy and share through the Treaty of Point Elliott signed by 82 tribes in Múckl-te-óh (Mukilteo) on January 22, 1855.
