The film noir classic The Killers is a special screening next week at the Landmark Century Cinema.
The picture is based on the classic Ernest Hemingway short story.
Making his film debut, Burt Lancaster portrays Swede, a broken-down ex-fighter waiting in a sleazy room to be assassinated without resistance.
Soon after, it becomes the job of insurance investigator Edmond O'Brien to discover why Swede had given up. He pieces together an elaborate look at a man who became the fall guy for gangsters and a seductive, unscrupulous woman played by Ava Gardner.
A taut Miklos Rozsa score (with a theme later used in the TV series Dragnet), an Anthony Veiller screenplay (with, uncredited, John Huston), and the brilliant artistry of director Robert Siodmak make this a stunning tale of cross and double-cross.
Showtime is 7:15 pm. Let's meet at 6:15 pm just inside the main entrance to the mall to congregate and then grab a bite nearby before the show.
Hope to see you there.
