Le Million (1931) Directed by René Clair
Saturday - January 26 - 3:00 p.m. An exuberant journey across Paris, Le Million is a musical full of cinematic magic. The film, one of René Clair’s first forays into sound technology, mixes joyous songs with madcap comedy and lively choreography. It tells the tale of poor artist Michel Bouflette (René Lefèvre) as he rushes to recover his lost lottery ticket. Along the way, he encounters hilarious characters, elaborate obstacles, and a rival who wants to claim the one million florins. Representing a significant but often overlooked turning point in French film history, Le Million is a jewel whose pleasures deserve rediscovery. (16mm. 81 min. Not rated.)
Out of the Past (1948) Directed by Jacques Tourneur
Saturday - February 2 - 3:00 p.m. Setting nearly every standard of the film noir genre, Jacques Tourneur’s thriller brims with danger and deceit. Robert Mitchum plays Jeff Bailey, a former private eye living a quiet life in a small town. When his past catches up with him, Bailey is pulled back into a world of blackmail, double-crossing and coldblooded murder ruled by gangster boss Sterling (Kirk Douglas) and his moll Kathie (Jane Greer, in an unforgettable take on the femme fatale). Over six decades later, the plot twists and stark visual style now typical to the genre still keep audiences riveted until the last frame. (16mm. 97 min. Not rated.)
