Double Thriller Feature presentation
Man Hunt 1941 directed by Fritz Lang with Walter Pidgeon, Joan Bennett
Captain Thorndike has Hitler in his gunsight. He fires. What follows is one of the tensest thriller on film, as he escapes to England only to be stalked by the Gestapo. The hunter becomes the hunted.
Secret People 1952 directed by Thorold Dickinson with Valentina Cortez, Audrey Hephburn
The gripping and persuasive tale of a family caught up in an anarchist's plot to assassinate a dictator. At what point do you stray from the idealism of a noble cause into the terrifying act of cold, pure terrorism and depravity? Certain to invoke discussion.
Free film notes as well as a mystery short.
