June 1

Indianapolis Museum of Art

But you won’t find many braver than that of Bette Davis who, at a point when her career was in the dumps, plays a former child star in a way that redefined “over the top.” For extra fun on the IMA terrace, serve your picnic on a tray with covered dishes. You’ll understand why when you see the film. Details here.
