ANN ARBOR THEATER
210 S. 5th; 761-9700
BROADWAY DANNY ROSE
Woody Allen is back with Mia Farrow, New York,
Insecurities, and even some loosely organized
crime; who would ask for more?
TERMS OF ENDEARMENT
A widow (Shirley MacLaine), tries to settle some
of the confusing points of a mother/daughter
relationship with her daughter (Debra Winger).
MOVIES AT BRIARWOOD
Briarwood Mall; 769-8780
AGAINST ALL ODDS
Not nearly so existential as some have said, but
quite intriguing, especially to those with a strong in-
terest.
THE BIG CHILL
Seven University alumni gather together at the
funeral of a friend, the results being humorous and
touching. Are these the best years of our lives?

THE DRESSER
A critically appealing drama turns around a pair
of actors wrestling to interpret Shakespeare. Oc-
casionally very intense.
EDUCATING RITA
No, not nearly as steamy as it sounds. Actually an
entertaining story of a woman in the throws of
education.
FOOTLOOSE
A modern cultural thing viviantly expressing
American youth's predilection for freedom. A
possible successor to Flashdance.
HARRY AND SON
Paul Newman (girls sigh) returns to star in,
direct, co-produce, and co-write this potentially ap-
pealing melodrama. Robby Benson co-stars.
SILK WOOD
Karen Silkwood discovers disturbing things about
her plutonium plant. When she attempts to expose
them, she mysteriously dies in a car accident.
UNFAITHFULLY YOURS
English humorist Natassja Kinski joins the stun-
ning Dudley Moore in this sometimes sultry comedy.
Lots of romance and jealousy,; some love, but not
much death.

FOX-VILLAGE THEATER
Maple Village; 769-1300
ANGEL
High school honor student by day, happy hooker at
night: oh, that ubiquitous angel. Not recommended
role-model material.
GORKY PARK
Can a jaded Russian agent detective save Russia
and the girl he loves from an international smuggling
scheme? '
RETURN OF THE JEDI
Third in a series of space-age flicks that combine
action, amusing scenarios and charismatic charac-
ters in an enjoyable, albeit mindless, movie.
THE RIGHT STUFF
To quote Davey Marlin Jones, "The Right Stuff
just doesn't have it." A good amount of public
patronage, however, has proved that contemporary
astronauts are still appealing.

Holden, Jack Webb, Buster Keaton and more.
(Mediatrics; MLB 4,9:00)
DATON (Andrzej Wajda, 1983)
Ann Arbor Premiere No. 2. Gerard Depardieu
stars in an acclaimed look at the French Revolution
by a Polish Director who uses the turmoil then as an
analogy for Poland today. French with subtitles.
Dolby Stereo. (Cinema Guild; Lorch Hall, 7:00, 9:30)
CASABLANCA (Michael Curtiz, 1943)
Humphrey Bogart supervises the roulette wheel of
love and intrigue at Rick's cafe in Casablanca. One
of the classic Hollywood films that just about
everyone likes. Who can blame them? Ingrid
Bergman also stars. (Ann Arbor Film Coop; MLB 4,
7:00, 9:00)
BETRAYAL (David Jones, 1983)
Probably one of the worst films of 1983, especially
because it seems to believe its own pretentiousness.
Ben Kingsley stars in a tale of adultery which has
some of the worst dialogue ever. Many thought it to be
great, though. Between my writing this and its ap-
pearance here, it will probably get some Oscar
nominations. (Alternative Action; Nat. Sci. Aud.,
7:00,9:00)
WAR GAMES (John Badham, 1983)
A rousing entertainment in which Matthew
Broderick plays a computer whiz kid who hooks into
a Defense Department computer and starts to set
WW III into action. The end drowns in heavyhanded
moralizing, but everything else is so much fun it can
be forgiven. (Cinema 2; Aud. A, 7:00,9:15)

GRASS (Merian Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack,
1925)
One of the earliest and ethnographic films deals
with theBakhtiari tribe of Persia, which has to make
a mass migration two times every year to find grass
for their flocks. Like most films from 1925, this one is
silent. (Cinema Guild, Lorch Hall, 7:00, FREE)
CASTLE OF PURITY (Arturo Ripstein, 1972)
Some people have the most unusual habits, and
this film looks at one of them. The subject is a
Mexican man who keeps his family locked inside the
house while he goes on selling his homemade rat
poison. Based on a true story. (Ann Arbor Film
Coop; MLB 1, 8:00, FREE)

The FUGITIVE KIND (Sidney Lumet, 1960)
Tennessee Williams scripts, and Marlon Brando
stars. He plays a bum who finds employement as a
shoe salesman in a Southern town and seems to serve
as a catalyst for trouble. (Cinema Guild; Lorch Hall,
7:00)
ON THE WATERFRONT (Elia Kazan, 1954)
Marlon Brando stars in this one, too, but I bet you
knew that already. He won an Oscar for his role as a
boxer mixed up in a corrupt union. Leonard Ber-
nstein provides the music. A short, What's Cookin'
Doc? will also be provided. (Cinema Guild; torch
Hall, 9:10)
CIAO MANHATTAN (David Weisman, 1970)
A look at the sixties lifestyle by an Andy Warhol
protege gets a belated Ann Arbor Premiere. The
movie was five years in the making. (Cinema 2; Aud.
A, 7:00, 9:00)
PSYCHO (Alfred Hitchcock, 1960)
Janet Leigh and Anthony Perkins star. Perkins
plays a slightly deranged young man with a mother
fixation who gives Leigh a room for the night at the
Bates Motel, and then tries to keep her from enjoying
the facilities. The masterpiece by Hitchcock is very
funny and very scary. See it. (Ann Arbor Film Coop;
Nat. Sci. Aud., 7:00)
CARRIE (Brian de Palma, 1976)
Sissy Spacek stars as a psychicly gifted young
girl who just cannot stand the treatment given by her
schoolmates, and decides to take revenge. It's a win-
ner. By the director of Scarface. From the novel by
Stephen King. (Ann Arbor Film Coop; nat. Sci.
Aud., 9:00)
ANNIE HALL (Woody Allen, 1978)
A semi-autobiographical work about Allen's
relationship with Diane Keaton which also stars Dian
Keaton. Its a funny and touching film depicting the
loss of a love to Hollywood. I would tell you to see this
but then you couldn't see the horror movies.
Decisions, decisions. (Alternative Action; MLB 4,
7:00,9:00)

A STAR IS BORN (George Cukor, 1954)

sion, not the recently restored one. (Hill Street

MAN OF IRON (Andrzej Wajda, 1981)
A mixture of fact about Lech Walesa and fiction
