The Michigan Daily-Weekend etc.- Best of A B EST' WRTS Not a bad year for film, all things considered. We had the good, the bad, and the Briarwood ugly.

Worst theater popcorn: Briarwood (the extra clump of butter is for dipping). Best theater: Michigan Theater (obviously). Worst theater: Briarwood. Best line from a film: (tie) "Reser- voir Dogs": "Two words: Learn to fucking type"and"SimpleMen":"Why, do women exist?" Most comfortable seats: Show- case. Best lineup: Michigan Theater for bringing us "Simple Men," "My New Gun," "Reservoir Dogs" and all the films no one else would show. Most disappointing lineup: Ann.

Best film: (tie) "Reservoir Dogs" and "Unforgiven." The most annoying viewing oc- currence: People shouting out the "se- cret" of "The Crying Game."'

Slowest concession stand: Show- case. Best date film: (tie) "Nowhere to Run" and "Under Siege." Best cannibalism scene: The butt- steak scene in "Alive." Best love scene: (tie, LeGros and Diane Lane in "My New Gun"' (it Most overworked theater staff: Ann Arbor 1 & 2: they sell you your ticket, getyourpopcorn, take your ticket stub, run the projector and give you a full-body massage -- all for $3.00. Annual Gary Cooper "Pride of the Yankees" miscasting award: Aladdin as Aladdin. Best Cast: (tie) "Glengarry Glen Ross" and "Reservoir Dogs.", Best lobby for purchasing art: Showcase (even better than the starving artists' sale at the Holiday Inn. Plenty of velvet Elvises).
