FRIDAY
DEAR AMERICA: LET-
TERS HOME FROM VIET-
NAM (Bill Couterie, 1988)
Michigan Theater 7:00
A new twist on last year's trend
of Vietnam films: this one isn't
fictionalized. Well known stars read
letters written by soldiers involved
in the police action as actual news
footage is shown.
CASABLANCA (Michael Cur-
tiz, 1943) Michigan Theater 8:45
Play it, Sam. And playsit again.
This film deserves to be shown as
often as it is, but must be seen on
the big screen. Bogart and Bergman
epitomize true love. Time goes by,
but Casablanca lasts forever.
PLAY IT AGAIN SAM
(Herbert Ross, 1972) Michigan
Theater 10:40
Woody Allen is a film buff who
wants to live in Bogart's world and
is taking lessons from the master
himself. Wonderful recreations of
scenes from Casablanca, and a
bunch of laughs too.
REAR WINDOW (Alfred
Hitchcock, 1954) MLB 3 7:00
A voyeur's delight, and Hitch-
cock's directing is so powerful that
you won't be able to take your eyes
from the screen. Jimmy Stewart is
laid up in his apartment and knows
a murder was committed across the
courtyard. Grace Kelly is his girl-
friend who comes to believe him
and help him prove that he is right.
You are a peeping-tom.
WAIT UNTIL DARK
(Terence Young, 1957) MLB 3
9:15
A blind woman, played by Au-
drey Hepburn, is accosted by some
men who have come to retrieve
some contraband belonging to her
husband. She learns to make an ad-
vantage out of her disadvantage and
use it against the thugs. Hepburn
was nominated for Best Actress.
PAPILLON (Franklin Schaffner,
1973) MLB 4 7:00 & 9:30
Devil's Island is a penal colony
off the coast of France. Steve Mc-
Queen is Henri "Papillon" Chari-
erre, a daring man who repeatedly
tries to escape from the horror and
brutality of this prison. Dustin
Hoffman has a strong supporting
role.
LATE AUTUMN (Yasujiro
Ozu, 1960) Nat Sci 7:00 & 9:30
One of Ozu's main themes has
always been the breakdown of
traditional family values. This time
a mother must encourage her reluc-
tant daughter to marry. -
SATURDAY
THE EMERALD FOREST
(John Boorman, 1985) 1429 Hill
St. 7:15
Powers Booth is an American
who is working in the Amazon
Jungle when his son is kidnapped.
Ten years later he returns to find his
lost child. Lush photography high-
light this film.
AGUIRRE, THE WRATH
OF GOD (Werner Herzog, 1973)
1429 Hill St. 9:15
Director Herzog and his favorite
actor Klaus Kinski fight like wild-
men off the set, but what shows up
on the screen seems to be a
collaboration between men who
think exactly alike. Maybe that's
the problem. Kinski plays a con-
quistador who will stop at nothing
to find El Dorado, the lost city of
gold, although he may lose his
mind first.
FREAKS (Tod Browning, 1932)
