Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Cheech & Chong’s Last Movie” showing May 23-28 at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.
“Cheech & Chong’s Last Movie” is an unlikely story of friendship, fame, turmoil, and — ultimately — redemption.
Cheech and Chong’s enduring partnership begins like the start of a classic joke set-up: “a Chicano kid from South Central LA and a half-Chinese Motown musician meet at a strip club in Canada” and ends with one of the most iconic duos in entertainment history.
In the 1970s, Cheech & Chong — Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong — redefined stand-up comedy, blending drugs, sex, rock’n’roll, and improvisation into a genre-shaping act. Their multicultural, irreverent humor turned them into icons, counterculture rock stars, and Hollywood legends. Raucous, accessible, and explosively funny, their groundbreaking stoner humor has translated into sold-out concerts, platinum-selling records, and box-office-smashing films.
The two have reached professional and personal heights well beyond their wildest dreams, while suffering their share of fallouts and stumbles, becoming a comedy rite of passage for multiple generations.
How did Cheech and Chong ignite imaginations and stay relevant over 50 years? Join them for one last ride to find out.
“Cheech & Chong’s Last Movie” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre May 23-28. Showtimes will be Friday, Saturday and Sunday, May 23, 24 and 25 at 6:30 p.m.; and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, May 26, 27 and 28 at 3:30 p.m.
