BEDROOM WINDOW Steve Guttenberg takes a ten - tative step towards seriousness playing a cop out to stop a psychotic who's killed two women already. Supposedly lots of good plot twists. At the State Theater. BLACK WIDOW When a beautiful woman's husbands get offed at an unnatural rate, Debrah Winger begins to suspect that this is one femme who's quite literally fatale. A taunt thriller. At the Movies at Briarwood. CHILDREN OF A LESSER GOD William Hurt is a teacher for the deaf who falls in love with a hearing- impaired girl in this technically perfect adaptation of the Broadway play. At the Movies At Briarwood. CROCODILE DUNDEE An Australian adventurer tries to make it on the mean streets of New York, attracting the interest of a smart, independant female who is - what else? - a journalist. At the Movies At Briarwood. DEAD OF WINTER Mary Steenburgen is a hopeful actress who signs on to play a most unusual part, but she gets more than she bargained for when the script calls for... murder!!! With Roddy McDowell. At the State Theater. FROM THE HIP Judd Nelson plays an amoral young lawyer who gets a partnership by fixing a case, and then gets handed an unwinnable murder trial. Screwball comedy from the director of Porky's. At the State Theater. THE GOLDEN CHILD Eddie Murphy is a hip private investigator who must journey to Tibet and face down evil monsters when he discovers he's the only one who can fulfill an ancient, mystical legacy. At the Movies At Briarwood. HANNAH AND HER SISTERS Woody Allen's superb comedy! drama about three sisters and the men in their lives. Definitely kicks butt over Radio Days. At the State Theater. LIGHT OF DAY - Michael J. Fox and Joan Jett are siblings whose only escape from blue-collar hell is rock and roll. At the Fox Village Theater. LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS So-so musical comedy about a meek flower shop handyman who finds a way to fame and fortune when a man-eating plant becomes his ticket to ride. Bill Murray, Steve Martin, James Belushi. At theAnn ArborTheaters 1 & 2. MANNEQUIN Andrew McCarthy is a lonely window-dresser who falls in love with a dummy. Through the magic of Hollywood, she comes to life (but only for him), and mass zaniness is the result. At the State Theater. MEATBALLS III It doesn't have Bill Murray, or even Pee Wee Herman, but the third installment of the Meatball trilogy is sure to be plenty nutty. At the State Theater. THE MOSQUITO COAST Harrison Ford is a scary individualist who takes his family to a deserted coast, away from the trappings of civilization. Trouble is, he starts to go a bit wacky, and pretty soon no one is safe. At the Movies At Briarwood. OUTRAGEOUS FORTUNE Bette Midler and Shelley Long are an unlikely duo who team up to find the man who was cheating on both of them, and get caught up in a plot of damn-near apocolyptic proportions. Peter Coyote and George Carlin round out this screwball comedy. At the Fox Village Theater. OVER THE TOP This time, Sly Stallone is an underdog in an arm wrestling tournament, fighting to keep his pride and his son. At the Movies At Briarwood. PLATOON Oliver Stone's explosive, gripping Vietnam action epic is every bit as good as you've heard it is. An idealistic young man finds his illusions shattered when he volunteers for duty in the 'Nam. At the Movies At Briarwood. RADIO DAYS Woody Allen's latest is a biteless, disjointed reverie about his childhood in the Bronx right around WWII. A fantastic cast barely stands a chance. At the Movies At Briarwood. ROUND MIDNIGHT Jazz legend Dexter Gordon pretty much plays himself in this tale of ex-patriate musicians in France. At the Ann Arbor Theaters 1 & 2. STAR TREK IV: THE VOYAGE- HOME All your favorites are back, as the crew of the Enterprise lands in America circa 1986 in order to save some whales from extinction. "Everybody remember where we parked," quips Kirk, as they set off into yet another strange, old world. At the Fox Village Theater.
