LSC Movies for the week of Nov 18 to Nov 21
LSC's Drop Date Eve Movie -- Free!
Thu. Nov 18 Top Secret! [PG] 26-100 8pm
From the creators of Airplane!, this is a ridiculous spoof of spies,
love at first sight, the French Resistance and skeet-surfing. Val Kilmer
is the Elvis impersonator invited to tour the craziest Germany ever.
Fri. Nov 19 The Inspector General (1949) [???] 10-250 7:30
The incomparable Danny Kaye stars as an elixir salesman who is mistaken
for one of Napoleon's officials. A hilarious musical trip based on the
Nicholas Gogol play; also featuring Walter Slezak and Elsa Lanchester.
Fri. Nov 19 In the Line of Fire [R] 26-100 6,9 & 12
Frank Horrigan (Clint Eastwood) is the only active Secret Service agent
ever to have lost a president. Assassin Mitch Leary (John Malkovich)
knows it, and Frank, all too well. When Leary teases Horrigan with
insinuating phone threats, Horrigan overreacts and is banished from
presidential protection unit, just as Leary plans his final lethal move.
[Please note the special screening times for this feature.]
Sat. Nov 20 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs [G] 26-100 3, 7 & 10
Disney's classic film is an adaptation of the Grimms' fairy tale about a
young princess forced to hide in the woods from a jealous, evil queen.
There she meets seven of the most unforgettable characters of all time:
Grumpy, Dopey, Sleepy, Sneezy, Happy, Bashful and Doc. Now digitally
re-mastered, Snow White is still "the fairest of them all."
[Please note the special matinee screening.]
Sun. Nov 21 Amadeus [PG] 26-100 8
Winner of 8 Academy Awards in 1984, Amadeus portrays the career of
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart through the eyes of a vindictive rival, Antonio
Salieri. Salieri, awed by the magnificence of Mozart's work (and
horrified at his antics), plots to destroy the genius who has
overshadowed him, tortured at every turn by the knowledge that Mozart's
gift is greater than his.

Corpulent generals safe behind lines
History's lessons drowned in red wine
Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
All of those young lives betrayed
All of those young lives betrayed
All for a children's crusade

@color(gold)@c(Our Program who art in Memory
Hello be thy Name.
Thy Operating System come.
Thy Commands be done at the Printer as it is on the Screen.
Give us this day our daily Data,
And forgive us our I/O errors
As we forgive those whose logic circuits are faulty.
Lead us not into frustration, and deliver us from Power Surges.
For Thine is the Algorithm,
The Application,
And the Solution
Looping forever and ever.
Return.
