LSC Weekly Schedule

LSC Events for Wednesday, February 12 through Tuesday, February 18

Friday, February 14
The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996) Geena Davis plays an amnesiac who has begun a new life. When she regains some of her memory in a car accident, and a private eye (Samuel Jackson) stumbles on to a clue of her past, she begins to find out who she is and what dangers her old life holds.
7 & 10pm in 26-100, 120 min, rated R, with Dolby Spectral Recording sound

Friday, February 14
Fahrenheit 451 (1966) Directed by Francois Truffaut. Starring Oskar Werner, Julie Christie. Truffaut's only film in English, Fahrenheit 451 is his vision of Ray Bradbury's cynically prophetic story about a society where books are outlawed and firemen start fires. Oskar Werner's performance as Guy Montag superbly captures his sense of alienation as he realizes that he no longer believes in the society whose ideals he once embraced as his own.
7:30pm in 10-250, 111 min, rated NR

Saturday, February 15
Ransom (1996) Mel Gibson stars as Tom Mullen, a wealthy executive whose young son is kidnapped and held for a two million dollar ransom. When an FBI rescue effort fails, Mullen offers the ransom money as bounty for the kidnappers, against the advice of his wife (Rene Russo) and the FBI.
7 & 10pm in 26-100, 121 min, rated R, with Dolby Spectral Recording sound

Sunday, February 16
Delicatessen (1991) The end of the world came and went, and you're still around. Unfortunately, cows, chickens, vegetables, fruits, and grain aren't. So if your landlord starts cutting up other tenants and selling them for food, do you object? Or do you just try to keep on his good side? And what happens when his daughter falls in love with you? Possibly the nicest cannibalism movie ever made. In French, with English Subtitles.
7 & 10pm in 26-100, 99 min, rated R
