The Exorcist
The Movies, Brlarwood
Director William Friedkin
(French Connection) has said
that this movie was intended to
scare people. It is the story of
how a little girl (Linda Blair)
becomes possessed by the Devil.
The little girl masturbates
with a crucifix, turns her head
all the way around, and swears
a la Jack Nicholson.

Dumbo
New World, Nat. Sci. Aud.
Sat., 7:30, 9:30
Walt Disney made Dumbo
(1941) right after Fantasia and
just before Bambi. Along with
Snow White, Dumbo is one of
the nicest feature-length Disney
"irnation films.
Dumbo is an elephant who
runs away because his ears are
too big. (This may sound ridi-
culous, but imagine how whack-
ed out the writers must h a v e
been to come up with a color
motion picture about this kind of
thing.)
The film is a lot of fun, and
at times is pretty funny as well.
If you have kids - or even
plan to have any - don't miss
it. Refreshing changes are al-
ways a barrel of laughs.

Rebel Without
A Cause
Cinema Guild, Arch. Aud.
Sat., 7:30, 9:30
-In Rebel Without A Cause
(1955), it's easy to see the
James Dean magic at work -
without him, this picture would
have gone absolutely nowhere.
With him, from the very first
minute he appears on screen as
the misunderstood new-boy-in-
town'with-the-trouibled-past, the
movie shoots to the moon and
back in a matter of seconds as
the Dean mystique makes its
way through even the most mun-
dane screenwriting.
It's an old story - the high
school knife fights, the c a r
races, the girlfriend of the
gang leader who loves him, but
James Dean puts in a new ele-
ment: reality. When the troub-
led Dean approaches his father,
embracing him, trying only to
communicate - it's as if we are
viewing a privileged moment,
something out of "real life".

James Dean was simply one
of the finest actors Hollywood
ever produced, though his ca-
reer was short-lived due to a
tragic automobile accident that
took his life in September of
1955. Dean's very first picture
was East of Eden (1954), but
