strong. At Briarwood, F & S-
11:00 p.m.
aging silent film star out of her
prime. The catch is that she was
one of the greatest silent film stars
of all time. An inside Hollywood
black comedy also starring

credible moment

FRIDA
SISTER CARRIE (William
Wyler, 1952) MLB 4 7:00
Lawrence Olivier stars with Jen-
nifer Jones in this Wyler drama
which is much different from

portrays a businessman who throws
it all away for a young actress.

9:05
An Olivier double feature. This
time he stars with fellow beautiful
person Vivien Leigh as the famous
Lord Admiral Nelson and Lady
Emma Hamilton ill-fated romance.
The film was meant to bring about
pro-British feelings as the war was
getting underway. By the way, it
was Winston Churchill's favorite.
(THIS IS) SPINAL TAP (Rob
Reiner, 1983) MLB 3 7, 8:40,
10:15
The immortal "Rockumentary"
which gave us the unforgettable
line, "But these go to 11." Reiner
follows the mythical band on the
road as he looks at their past and
present achievements with albums
like Shark Sandwich and Smell the
Glove and those driving tunes like
"Sex Farm," and "Big Bottoms."

or else you'll probably miss some-
thing hilarious.

man, 1983) Aud A 8 &10
Joel, sometimes you gotta say
'What the f---.' Joel's parents are
out of town so he converts his lush
suburban Chicago home into the
neighborhood brothel, just so he

Rebecca DeMornay plays the
hooker with a heart of gold who
lures the naive Tom Cruise into her
world of ill-repute.
