What's happening in
Ann Arbor this weekend

THE ABYSS
E.T. under the sea? Whatever it
is, it's big. Special effects galore
and an Alien-like theme combine in
this expensive rescue of a
submarine over five miles below
the deep blue sea. Rated PG-13. At
Showcase Cinemas, 1:15, 7:15,
9:55, 12:25.
BLACK RAIN
Michael Douglas, who went
from the Streets of San Francisco
to the top of Wall Street, is now on
his way to the rough Tokyo
underworld to track down an escaped
killer. Kate Capshaw co-stars in the
latest film from director Ridley
Scott. Rated R. At Briarwood (all
week - 12:00, 1:00, 2:30, 3:30,
5:00, 6:00, 7:30, 8:30, 10:00,
11:30). At Showcase (all week -
1:00, 1:30, 7:10, 7:30, 9:40,
10:00, 12:05 a.m., 12:20 a.m.).
DEAD POETS SOCIETY
Robin Williams returns from
Vietnam to an Ivy league,
conservative prep school to teach
his way. The old stiff collared

administration hate him, but the
kids eat him up. Rated PG. At
Showcase Cinemas (all week -
7:35, 10:05, 12:20).
DO THE RIGHT THING
Spike Lee, the controversial,
low budget loving director returns
for another film that speaks of
racial attitudes and tensions. At Ann
Aror I & II- F, M, T, W , Th-
5:00, 7:15, 9:30; S, Su- 12:30,
2:45, 5:00, 7:15, 9:30.
HONEY, I SHRUNK THE
KIDS
What else would you expect to
happen when you make Rick
Moranis a wacky scientist working
on a new revolutionary invention.
I guess it looks better to the people
at Disney than Honey, I murdered
the Kids. At Showcase Cinemas,
all week - 12:15.
IN COUNTRY
Director Norman Jewison's long
awaited family drama stars Bruce
Willis as a father trying to bring
his family together in the wake of

the Vietnam War. Must be easier
than killing terrorists in a
skyscraper. At Briarwood all
week-12:15, 2:30, 4:40, 7:15,
9:40, 11:50 FriSat. At

11:55)
INDIANA JONES AND THE
LAST CRUSADE
The third film in Steven
Spielberg's adventure saga of
Indiana Jones, the brash archa-
eologist in the 1930s, has a
pleasant twist-Sean Connery, as
Jones' dad. Loads of fun and stunts
here, but nothing more than a good
carbon copy of Raiders. At Fox
Village Theater. (F- 7:00, 9:30;
S, Su- 12:00, 2:30, 4:40, 7:00,

Th- 7:15, 9:30; At Showcase-
12:45, 7:35, 9:35, 11:45)
KICKBOXER
Jean-Claude Van Damme is a
man on his way to being compared
with Chuck Norris, though it may
be several movies off. The
Bloodsport star is now a kickboxer
and I hear he's pretty good at it.
Rated R. At Showcase, 12:40,
7:45, 9:50, 12:00 a.m.
LAWRENCE OF ARABIA
David Lean's epic masterpiece
returns to the silver screen, bigger
and better than ever. A multi
acadamy award winner, the reissue
of Lawrence has had the film world
giddy for the past year, but bring
lot's of popcorn, it's a long ride. At

to waste criminals. Rated R with

a.m.
ROCKY HORROR PICTURE
SHOW
You've seen it a few dozen
times. You've been showered with
rice. You know all the lines and
scream them out with everyone
else. It's that old cult favorite,
nearly 15 years old, but still going
strong. At Briarwood, F & S-
11:15.
SEA OF LOVE
Flash, dash, and the return of Al
Pacino. He's on the trail of a serial

SEX, LIES, AND VIDEO-
TAPE
. An all new, totally innovative
film, it won top honors at Caanes
Film Festival. James Spader and
Andie MacDowell star in this
"conversation" film, low budget,
but high on controversy and
interest. At Showcase Cinemas (all
week -12:10, 7:20, 9:45, 12:00
a.m.; and at Briarwood (all week -
12:15, 2:15, 4:30, 7:15, 9:20,

mouth more than any dog in movie
history. Co-stars Micheal Keaton as
the cop whose house is redecorated
by Hooch. Rated PG. At Showcase
Cinemas (all week - 12:30, 7:20,
