chance.
Fri. Oct 15 The Taming of the Shrew (1967) [???] 10-250 7:30
The battle of the sexes done by Shakespeare and Franco Zeffirelli could
only merit performances by Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor as
Petruchio and Kate. Watch this infamous real-life couple face off on
screen in medieval Padua.
Fri. Oct 15 Howards End [PG] 26-100 7 & 10:30
This lavishly produced, gorgeous film from Merchant and Ivory (A Room
with a View) is about the class structure of Edwardian London. In some
of their best acting efforts, Anthony Hopkins, Helena Bonham Carter,
Vanessa Redgrave, and Emma Thompson show how people within the same
class can lead totally different lives. A seamless entertainment which
builds to a powerful revelation of character and failure.
Sat. Oct 16 The Last Action Hero [PG-13] 26-100 7 & 10:30
Danny, a boy with more than enough problems in real life, is catapulted
into the middle of the latest "Jack Slater" shoot-em-up in this reversal
of The Purple Rose of Cairo. Arnold Schwarzenegger beats the satirists
to the punch by poking fun at his entire career in this visually
spectacular action thriller. Replete with inside jokes, the film takes a
look at the life of a movie hero in a way only a visitor from the real
world could appreciate.
Sun. Oct 17 Casablanca [???] 10-250 7 & 10
The title's Moroccan city and a bar called Rick's during WWII are the
setting for the decision Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) must make between the man
she loves (Humphrey Bogart) and her war-hero husband. Perhaps the most
famous of all cinematic romances, this classic proves that "The world
will always welcome lovers/As time goes by."
