Paper Moon
(1973)
Directed by Peter Bogdanovich
March 15 - Saturday - 6:30 p.m.
Ryan O'Neal teams up with daughter Tatum, who
became the youngest actress ever to win an Oscar
®
in her first film role. Ryan plays the smooth-talking
con man Moses Pray, driving through Depression-
era Kansas with a car-load of deluxe Bibles for
sale. Addie is a cigarette-smoking, nine-year-old
orphan who manages to show the master con man
a trick or two. Madeline Kahn gives a beguiling
performance as Trixie Delight, who goes along for
the ride. Bogdanovich's father-daughter road movie
remains irresistible, and the ghosts of John Ford
and Howard Hawks haunt the composition. (35mm.
102 min. Rated PG.)
Targets
(1968)
Directed by Peter Bogdanovich
March 15 - Saturday - 9:30 p.m.
In Peter Bogdanovich's first feature (and Boris
Karloff's last American film), an aging horror film
star named Byron Orlock (Karloff) is confronted
with a real-life murderer in a terrifying tale of real-
ity versus illusion. As Orlock is preparing to retire,
his life intersects that of a seemingly all-American
young man who has `snapped' and is meticulously
planning his killing spree. The film ingeniously uses
footage from Roger Corman's 1963 film The Terror,
and creates a cinematic homage to Hollywood's
golden age, while presenting the most damning, vis-
ceral account of gun violence imaginable. (35mm.
90 min. Rated PG.)
