(FAME)  You
wanna
talk
about
obscure
cinema,
how
about
an
entire
cast
of
kids,
(led
by
Scott
Baio
and
Jodie
Foster!)
that
re-imagines
the
early
1920s
gangster
story
of
Bugsy
Malone
as
a down-right
musical!?
Each
and
every
authentic
roaring-twenties
costume
was
specially
cut-down
for
the
child
actors,
while
the
tommy
guns
shot
custard
pies
(aka
Splurge
guns”).
If
that's
not
bizarre
enuff,
all
of
the
musical
numbers
were
written
and
performed
by
kooky-eyed
musician
Paul
Williams
(PHANTOM
OF
THE
PARADISE).
As
the
tagline
said
in
1976, “"Quite
simply,
there's
never
ever
been
a movie
like
it."” Music
by
Paul
Williams. 93min.
A Super
rare
35mm
print. $10 FOR ONE OR ALL THREE FILMS!

We
kick off
our Jodie
Foster night
with a nostalgic
time about
tomboys growing
up too fast
and when
Disney films
were actually
funny. One
morning,
Annabel wakes
up to find
her-self
switched
into her
mother’s
body and
vice-versa.
As the two
experience
what it’s
like to be
in the other’s
shoes, Foster
proves that
she truly
was the greatest
child actor
of our time.
(She made
this wacky
romp in the
same year
as playing
the under-age
prostitute
in Martin
Scorsese's
Taxi Driver.)
Be prepared
for some
amazing trailers
from your
childhood
preceeding
the movie.
95min. 35mm.
This
portrait
of four
teenage
girls
growing
up in
the late-70s
is as
poignant
and powerful
as it
was over
25 years
ago.
The film
captures
that
disenchanting
moment
as you
start
drifting
away
from
your
best
friends.
For Jeanie
(Foster)
the drugs,
sluffing
school,
rocking
out to
your
favorite
band,
even
the cute
skater
boy (Baio),
it's
all secondary
when
it comes
to friendships.
Problem
is, things
don't
always
work
out the
way they're
suppose
to. This
really
does
rank
up there
with
the most
important
teen
films.
Don't
miss
this
special
screening! Music
by
Giorgio
Morodor,
Donna
Summer.
