Anyone here from Pittsburgh? Any screenings of 'It's A Wonderful Life'?

I just moved to Pittsburgh and am wondering if any theaters in the city show 'Its a Wonderful Life' at any point during the holidays? I have seen it in the theaters every year for the last 5 years in Boston and would like to continue the tradition.

Fellow Pittsburgher here. I'm not aware of any screenings of the film, but the public theater here is doing a one-man adaptation of the movie, if you're interested in that:

Assuming you're willing to travel an hour or so, I'm sure they probably have theatrical screenings in nearby Indiana, PA...since it's Jimmy Stewart's hometown.

Yes, that crossed my mind. I just moved here a few months ago and have always wanted to visit the Jimmy Stewart museum. That's a good idea I think I'll call them on Monday. It's really too bad, back in Boston Showcase Cinemas showed it one day on one screen at one time, and admission was simply a donation of a non perishable food item for a local shelter. It was a great idea and gave people the opportunity to see it on the big screen.

While not in the same city, it's in the Pennsylvania. State College (middle of PA) is showing it the 21/22 of December.
