NOW IN THEATERS...
* Blue is the Warmest Color, the controversial Cannes champion is an emotional, erotic epic.
* First Comes Love, a self-absorbed documentary about late-in-life single motherhood.
* The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. An improved sequel in what is becoming my favorite franchise. Great blockbuster entertainment!
* The Seven Samurai vs. The Magnificent Seven: the NW Film Center is playing both Kurosawa's original and the John Sturges remake.
* Terror on the Beach, an obscure creeper made for TV in 1973, starring Dennis Weaver and Susan Dey.
WATCH IT AT HOME...
* Miss Sadie Thompson and Salome, two 1953 vehicles showing a very different Rita Hayworth.
Not an actual Hunger Games image, but I like the idea of Finnick and Johanna hanging out on Carnaby Street.
Current Soundtrack: Nicky's Family
