The San Luis Obispo International Film Festival hosts a fundraiser screening of Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid on Nov. 17 at the Fremont Theater. Award-winning actress Katherine Ross, who portrayed Etta Place in Butch Cassidy, will introduce the film and perform a spoken short story with the accompaniment of the Malibu Coast Silent Film Orchestra.

Ross, also known for her roles in The Graduate, The Stepford Wives, and Donnie Darko, will stay for a discussion following the screening. There will also be an opportunity to meet Ross during a private reception before the screening at Luis Wine Bar from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Tickets are available now for the fundraiser, which directly supports the 25th annual SLO Film Fest in March. Sponsorship opportunities are still available for the event. Visit slofilmfest.org for more information. Δ
