FR ID AYwhohelps a lawyer capture a crime
FRIDAYboss. Made before the Code, and

THE COCOANUTS (Robert
Florey, 1929) Aud A 7:00
The first of the Marx Brothers
films takes place at a Florida resort.
It may seem a bit stilted due to the
fact that the Brothers and sound
were both new to film, but the
jokes are funny anyway as the
siblings run a hotel, solve a
mystery, and sell swampland.
PENTHOUSE (W.S. Van Dyke,
1933) Aud A 8:45
Van Dyke was the director of The
Thin Man. .Again he works with
Myrna Loy in a fast-paced comedy
romp about a sophisticated call-girl

thus has lots of innuendo.
INTERNATIONAL HOUSE
(Edward Sutherland, 1933) Aud A
10:20.
Made in 1933, this film deals
with a group of people who meet at
an Asian hotel in order to be part of
a television broadcast. The group
includes W.C. Fields, Cab
Calloway, Bela Lugosi, and the
immortal George Burns.
THE LAST DETAIL (Hal
Ashby,1973) MLB 3 7:00
Early Jack. Here he is a career
sailor who is escorting Randy

Quaid to military prison. Jack and
fellow escort Otis Young decide to
help Quaid enjoy his last few days
of freedom and show him a good
time.
FIVE EASY PIECES (Bob
Rafelson, 1970) MLB 3 9:00
One of Jack's first lead roles and
still one of his best performances.
He returns home to visit his father
who recently fell ill after having
rebelled against his family and his
natural talent for the piano. The
film captures the despair felt so
strongly at the end of the sixties.
ALICE (Jan Svankmajer, 1988)
MLB 4 7:00, 8:40, & 10:20
Wonderland comes to Ann Arbor.
This is said to be a surreal version,

which is great because so was
Lewis Carroll's. Done by one of
the leading animators in the world,
this combines stop motion
animation with real people.
SATURDAY
REBECCA (Alfred Hitchcock,
1940) 1429 HillISt. 7:15 & 9:30
This was Hitchcock's first
American film, and surprisingly
enough, the only one of his works
to win the Best Film Oscar. You
all know who Hitchcock is, but
does anyone really know who
Rebecca is? Joan Fontaine seeks to
find out since it is part of her
husband's, Laurence Olivier's, past.

SPELLBOUND (Alfred
Hitchcock, 1945) Aud A 7:00
This film takes on new
importance this week with the
passing of Salvidor Dali. Hitchcock
hired him to do a dream sequence
that shall persist in your memory
for a long time. Onscreen, Ingrid
Bergman and Gregory Peck are the
psychoanalyst and her disturbed
patient, repectively.
STRANGERS ON A TRAIN
(Alfred Hitchcock, 1951) Aud A
9:00
Hitchcock had a slump in the late
forties but this is the film that
reinstated him as the master of
suspense. Two men meet on a
train, and decide to each commit a
murder for the other. Problem is
