Harkins Theatres is running $6 tribute screenings of two Dolly Parton films this weekend at select Valley locations, with all proceeds going to Parton's Imagination Library, the free book-gifting program she founded for children from birth to age 5.
The two titles are "Steel Magnolias" (1989) and "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" (1982). In "Steel Magnolias," Parton played Truvy Jones, the owner of a Louisiana beauty salon, alongside Sally Field, Shirley MacLaine, Olympia Dukakis, Daryl Hannah and Julia Roberts. In "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas," she starred opposite Burt Reynolds in a musical comedy based on the Broadway show, playing the owner of a Texas establishment fighting to keep her doors open.
Parton died Tuesday after a brief battle with cancer, according to Arizona's Family, leaving behind a career that spanned music, film, television and philanthropy.
Tickets are on sale now at Harkins.com, through the Harkins mobile app, or at participating box offices.
