For this Sunday Kino Night, we’re starting with In Cold Blood (1967), the highly-acclaimed film adaptation of Truman Capote’s novel of the same name, which was pretty much the launchpad for the entire genre we now know as “true crime”. A pair of thieves botch a house robbery and end up committing murder; they then go on the run and must come to terms with what they have done. Will they get away with their crimes? No, no they won’t. This is generally considered the best film of director Richard Brooks, who is otherwise best-known for Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958).
After that is Welcome Back, Mr. McDonald (1997), a Japanese screwball comedy about a housewife who manages to get her radio play performed on a national station; everything looks like it’s going great, until the star demands to change the name of her character, at which point everyone else starts altering their parts, too. Chaos and hilarity ensue. Will they still manage to perform the play successfully? I guess we’ll find out. This is the best-known and best-regarded work of director Koki Mitani, and was nominated for a bunch of awards in Japan at the time. Looks cool; let’s watch.
We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:
