With Andy Devine, providing Ford's beloved sideshow slapstick.   Director: John Ford. 109 min. 1961. 35mm. tag:flavorpill.com,2005:EventListing/66081 2012-02-11T02:30:00Z 2012-02-11T02:30:00Z Today An Army captain and former P.O.W. is court martialed back home for treasonously embracing Commie brainwashing in this little-screened Korean War film from a “bombshell” of a Broadway play.   Hiring Karl Malden to direct, Richard Widmark stars as the prosecuting Governor’s Island colonel who smells a rat, opposite Rip Torn as a lieutenant and fellow ex-P.O.W. who’s feeling the heat. Flashbacks thrust us back to the cold, cold camp (overseen by the brainwasher from The Manchurian Candidate), from Widmark's claustrophobic Army offices. With Richard Basehart parroting cant as the troubled red, to the bewilderment of his wife June Lockhart.    Director: Karl Malden. 97 min. 1957. 35mm. tag:flavorpill.com,2005:EventListing/66084 2012-02-12T01:00:00Z 2012-02-12T01:00:00Z Discussion Tomorrow Leading up to our 20th anniversary screenings of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, Meet The Lady presents this special show.   Was there ever a coterie of female talent as diverse as the one David Lynch assembled for Twin Peaks? Join host Tom Blunt and an army of performers, presenters and special guests as they obsess over the lives and careers of actresses whose paths intersected in this sleepy (yet over-caffeinated) town.   Damn fine coffee will be available for all attendees, courtesy of David Lynch Signature Cup!!   *Reception to follow in the 92YTribeca cafe* Part of the series Meet The Lady and this months' Twin Peaks Celebration. tag:flavorpill.com,2005:EventListing/66085 2012-02-16T00:30:00Z 2012-02-16T00:30:00Z Wednesday 2/15 Kyle MacLachlan’s first collaboration with David Lynch was also his very first big screen role.   In adapting Frank Herbert's beloved, complex scifi novel, Lynch had his work cut out for him. The year is 10,191 and a war is on to gain control of the planet Dune – desirable for Spice, which makes time travel possible. Declared a disaster upon release, Dune nevertheless found its audience, attracted to its hypnotic imagery, or even just fans of Sting.   Director: David Lynch. 137 min. 1984. 35mm.
