5/3 Film Society: The Empire Strikes Back

Join us at Jekyll Hyde Park Speakeasy for a special screening of Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back, widely regarded as one of the greatest films in the Star Wars universe.

Darker, deeper, and filled with unforgettable moments (yes, that revelation), The Empire Strikes Back delivers epic battles, emotional twists, and legendary storytelling that changed cinema forever. Experience the Force in the moody, hidden atmosphere of Jekyll Hyde Park Speakeasy—where craft cocktails meet cult classics. Whether you’re loyal to the light side or tempted by the dark, this is the perfect setting to relive one of film’s most beloved adventures.
