FRIDAY
Dick Tracy
(Warren Beatty, 1990)
Mich 7pm MTF
A true testament to the potential of
advertising. If you don't know what
this comic book extravaganza's about
by now, who can help you?
My Geisha

Shirley MacLaine and Yves Montand
play a movie actress and her director
husband who fight over whether or
not she should star in his next film.
Sweet Movie
(Dusan Makejav, 1975)
AudC 7pm, 8:45 & 10:30 AAFC
This powerful X-rated X-ploration of
sex, rebellion and liberation will
shock some viewers and titillate
others. Its star sued the director for
making her do "degrading" things
(like bathing in chocolate - sounds
OK to me).
The Ladykillers
(Alexander Mackendrick, 1955)
AudA 7pmIDBL CG
A comic gem. This droll black
comedy revolves around a gang of
dunderhead crooks, led by the
inimitable Alec Guinness, who meet
their match in a sly, seemingly
harmless little old lady.
e"f g".*.*.*
Arsenic and Old Lace
(Frank Capra, 1944)
AudA 8:45/DBL CG
Poor Cary Grant. He's a somewhat
sane drama critic with a wild family in
this madcap, hilarious adaptation of
Joseph Kesselring's hit play.
" " ."*"*"
Stand by Me
(Rob Reiner, 1986)
MLB3 8:00 & 10:00 Med
Adapted from the Stephen King short
story "The Body," Stand By Me is the
usual American coming of age story
with a psychological twist and
mystery.
The Unbelievable Truth
(Hal Hartley, 1990)
Mich 9:05 MTF
Audrey is not your average dismal
teenager. She's obsessed with nuclear
disaster, positive the world will
explode any minute. Her nihilistic
vision changes with the arrival of
Josh, a mysterious ex-con.
" " " " " "
Stop Making Sense
(Jonathon Demme, 1984)
Mich 11pm MTF
One of the only movies that's perfect
for midnight viewing without a
following of fad-grabbers, Satan
worshippers, or people who dance in
black bras, Stop MakingSense is
infused with the peculiarbut
contagious energy of David Byrne
and The Talking Heads.

The Elephant Man
(David Lynch, 1980)
MLB4 7:30 & 9:45 AAFC
One of Lynch's two ventures into
films that weren't his own unique
vision (the other was Dune), The
E/ephant Man is actually deeply
moving without being quite as weird
as you'd expect of the Lynch-man.
Play it Again, Sam
(Herbert Ross, 1972)
MLB3 7:30/DBL Med
Woody Allen'saliale obsessed with
Humphrey Bogart. So obsessed his
wife leaves him, after which Woody
seeks solace in the arms of his best
friend's wife (Diane Keaton).
Luckily, the ghost of Bogey pops up
now and again to offer advice.

The first time Allen plays director,
writer, and star, he succeeds in a
madcap story of a wimp wio'liapens
