SOME CAME RUNNING (1958)

A mid-century melodrama in which Frank Sinatra plays a soldier returning to a small town. It has some interesting shots but never really rises above its potboiler status.

DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESS (1995)

A very well-done neo-noir that deals with issues the original film noirs mostly ignored. Denzel Washington plays the detective in over his head.

AIRPLANE! (1980)

This genesis of many, many other very silly movies was the subject of our “Emergency Election Night Watch Party” last night.

GHOSTBUSTERS (1984)

Deadpan responses to bizarro, otherwordly threats lead to an all-timer of a comedy.
