AMC White Marsh Showing 'Purple Rain' to Honor Prince

Fans of Prince will be able to get a big-screen glimpse at the late music icon this week, when his seminal film "Purple Rain" is screened at the AMC White Marsh.

Officials with AMC Theatres said the company began working with Warner Bros. shortly after Prince's death on Thursday to bring the 1984 film—which has been airing as a tribute on some cable stations—back to the silver screen.

After Prince's sudden death Thursday at 57, tributes have popped up across the globe, including all-night dance raves and radio and TV stations playing his hits on a constant loop.

Movie theaters are joining the tribute, with AMC announcing it will screen "Purple Rain" from April 23-28.

AMC White Marsh 16 is showing the film at 2:10 and 10:25 p.m. on Sunday, April 24; 2:10 and 10:25 p.m. on Monday, April 25; 2:10 and 10:25 p.m. on Tuesday, April 26; 2:10 and 10:25 p.m. on Wednesday, April 27.
