The Michigan Daily-Friday, November 3, 1978-Page 5 *1 IFor the week of HoPPe s. November 3-9r La Raza Law Students and Speak presents Ricardo Ron ers committee zero the Chicano- TpirC. Tho G~randrv aiand; 1 FRIDAY CINEMA Adam's Rib (Old A&D, 7 and 9:05) - Husband-wife lawyer team takes op- posing sides in trial of accused would- be husband-slayer. 1949 battle of the sexes comedy is prized by some as the quintessential Tracy-Hepburn vehicle, but three decades removed, it comes across laborious, unsophisticated and creaky, creaky, creaky. Joe Hill & Sacco and Vanzetti (Angell Hall Aud. A, Joe Hill at 7, Sacco at 9) - A pair of foreign-produced entries, each focusing on American political mar- tyrs. Both films have remained under circulated° since' their release and, reportedly, are rather underwhelming as well. The Devil is a Woman (MLB 3, 8:40 only) - Early Josef von Sternberg- Marlene Dietrich collaboration. Alice in the Cities (Nat. Sci. Aud., 7 & 9) - Much-acclaimed film by German director Wim Wenders about the European wanderings of a, photographer and his child companion. A Clockwork Orange (MLB 4, 7 & 9:30) -Kubrick's distortion of the Burgess novel suggests violence is not only fun, it's also moral and necessary. Memorably directed, brilliantly acted, but nonetheless one of the few truly ob- scene films of our time. SATURDAY November 4 CINEMA The Seven Year Itch (Angel, Aud. A, 7 & 9) - Happily-married man finds himself succumbing to the lures of a blonde bombshell. Billy Wilder's famous 50's comedy is a bit shopworn today, but still good for a large share of laughs. With Marilyn Monroe and the much underrated, now-forgotten Tom Ewell. 13th International Tourney of Animation (MLB 3, 7, 8:40, 10:20) - Annual collection of prize-winning animated films. Seduction of Mimi (Old A&D, 7 & 9:05) - Marxist factory worker runs afoul of Sicilian Mafia on one hand, his estranged wife on the other. Over- praised, leeringly unfunny comedy by Lina Wertmuller, with its hero grotesquely overplayed by the usually excellent Giancarlo Giannini. The Shoot Horses, Don't They? (Nat. Sci. Aud, 7 & 9:15) - Apocalyptic 1930's dance marathon serves as a metaphor for an interminable, high- budget exercise in dime-store existen- tialism. Ruinously overblown, Sidney Pollack's stodgy production claustrophobically smothers fine per- formances by Jane Fonda, Susannah York and Gig Young, yet strangely ac- centuates a perfectly ghastly one by Michael Sarazin. MONDAY November 6 CINEMA Mad Love (Angell Aud. A, 7 only) - Profoundly obscure 1930's horror flick' starring Peter Lorre in purportedly "One of his greatest roles" as a mad doctor. Have they forgotten M so quickly?t Of Mice and Men (Angell Aud. A, 8:15 only) - Fine adaptation of the Stein- beck novel. Burgess Meredith and Lon Chaney Jr. hone the George-Lenny relationship to a comi-tragic fineness, and the'film in general remains remarkably faithful' to the book - a Hollywood rarity. EVENTS Chuck Mangione, Hill Auditorium, 8 p.m. TUESDAY November 7 cinema The Human Condition, Pt. III: The Soldier's Prayer (Old A&D, 7:30 only, admission FREE) - Japanese film about a prisoner of war during the Russo-Japan conflict of tie early 20th century. Straight Time - (Angell Aud. A, 7 & 9) - Quite recent Dustin Hoffman film about a professional criminal whose trail through life leads only down, down, down. The film vigorously eschews the standard crime film good- man-gone-wrong sentimentality, yet in pursuit of that goal the picture becomes as arid, sparse and uninvolving as any film in recent memory. Hoffman brings all his talent to bear in creating his ex- con protagonist, but succeeds only in producing a hero one not only can't sympathize with, but ultimately can't care about one way or the other. I WEDNESDAY November 8 CINEMA A Separate Peace (Nat. Sci. Aud., 7 & 9) - Film adaptation of John Knowles' soupy but best-selling novel about love, hate, sex and coming of age at a boys' prep school. Possibly well-done. but definitely genre - proceed with caution. Bonnie and Clyde (Old A&D, 7 & 9:15) Not only a brilliant film but also one of the most historically pivotal works in the annals of cinema, effectively tor-, pedoing Hollywood's tyrannical con- cept of "the wellmade film" perhaps forever. Artistic and archival bravos to, all involved. I Want a Solution and The Mummy (Angel Aud. A, Solution at 7, The Mummy at 9) - A pair of Egyptian films, products rarely seen anywhere in the Western world, much less Ann Ar- bor. The latter film sounds like it might provide a fascinating contrast to the multifold American camp-horror films on the same subject. Admission to these showings is FREE. THURSDAY November 9 CINEMA The Cruel Sea and The Law (Angell Aud. A, Cruel Sea at 7, The Law at 9) - The Middle East film series continues with these entries from Kuwait and Iran. FREE admission. Battle of Algiers (Old A&D, 7 & 9:15) - Gillo Pontecorvo's enthralling, epic re-creation of Algeria's struggle for in- dependence from the French. Forget the fact that the Algerians are probably worse off economically and politically now than they were then; It's still fun to bask in the sheer good-vs.-evil roman- ticism of it all.. Commercial Cinema The Big Fix (Campus) - Richard Dreyfuss stars as an ex-Berkeley radical working as a detective who fin- ds himself drawn into murder and political intrigue in the seventies. Goin' South (State) - Jack Nicholson starred in and directed this amiable but very lightweight western-comedy about an ex-criminal hooked up with a pretty but frigid young wife. John Belushi has an amusing (if small) role, and the movie rates slightly higher than most television fare. Comes a Horseman (Michigan) - Starring Jane Fonda and James Caan, this is one of the new wave of "up- dated" westerns that try to undercut -the Old Romanticism with the New Reality. A fair effort. Carnal Knowledge (Fifth Forum) - Mike Nichols' interesting but ultimately sterile examination of changing sexual mores in the last 20 years. Focusing on the divergent lives of two college buddies in the fifties (Jack Nicholson and Art Garfunkel), the picture offers more heavy moralizing than it can support. Who Is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? (Briarwood) - We heard it was Ray Kroc, but you'll have to see for yourself. With Robert Morley, George Segal, and Jacqueline Bisset. Midnight Express (Bria1~wood) - A brilliant adaptation of the true story of Billy Hayes (Brad Davis), a 22-year-old American arrested for possession of hashish in Turkey and put through the hellish rituals of the Turkish penal system. The Boys From Brazil (Briarwood) - A Marathon Man-type story with many clones of Hitler and a notable ab- sence of supra-thriller.ideas. The Nazis are the bad guys. With Lawrence Olivier. Animal House (Briarwood) - National Lampoon's fun but unscathing look at college life in the early sixties. A lot of the jokes aren't that hysterical, but the movie's message - "Be Crazy!" - seems apt for our time. death on the Nile (Fox Village) - An Agatha Christie thriller. Up In Smoke (Fox Village) - If marijuana doesn't damage your brain, ' then how come so many junior high kids think Cheech and Chong are funny? Niteries v . II=y J1% .,....

The resulting film about the lives and loves of 19th century theater people is one of thewmost vibrant, ecstatic tributes to the human spirit ever put on film. Unquestionably one of the half- dozen or so best movies ever made, and almost certainly the most enjoyable. Don't miss this one. Far From the Madding Crowd (Angell Aud. A, 7 & 9:30) - Julie Christie, Alan Bates, and Peter Finch star in John Schlesinger's adaptation of the Hardy novel. Seldom-seen and reportedly about as slow-going as its literary counterpart.
