Thursday, June 14 – 7:30 PM
Double Feature: DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER, 1971, MGM/Park Circus, 120 min. Dir. Guy Hamilton. James Bond (Sean Connery returning to the role after a one-film hiatus) goes from Amsterdam to Las Vegas on the trail of missing diamonds and encounters his arch-nemesis, Ernst Stavros Blofeld (Charles Gray) along the way. Ken Adam’s sleek, spacious and beautifully angular production design was as much responsible for the success of the early Bond films as star Connery or producers Broccoli & Saltzman, and he continues the tradition here. Many times nominated, Adam won the Oscar for his work on BARRY LYNDON (1975) and THE MADNESS OF KING GEORGE (1994). With Jill St. John as Tiffany Case and Lana Wood as Plenty O’Toole. [35mm]

LIVE AND LET DIE, 1973, MGM/Park Circus, 121 min. Dir. Guy Hamilton. In his first outing as James Bond, Roger Moore takes on heroin magnate Yaphet Kotto and romances the gorgeous Jane Seymour. Blaxploitation meets elegant spy thriller in this chase-filled roller-coaster ride, which places Bond in a world of Caribbean gangsters and voodoo. The classic title song is by Paul McCartney. [35mm]
