Sunday, October 9 – 7:30 PM SIDNEY LUMET
Double Feature: NETWORK, 1976, MGM Repertory, 120 min. Director Sidney Lumet helmed this vitriolic dissection of network television in which Faye Dunaway (Oscar winner for Best Actress) is the new creative honcho angling to exploit the madness of fired news anchorman Howard Beale.
THE PAWNBROKER, 1965, Paramount, 119 min. Dir. Sidney Lumet. Rod Steiger is the pawnbroker of the title, an emotionally constricted Holocaust survivor whose efforts to cut himself off from others are severely tested.
