“Every man dreams of having the perfect wife. The men of
Stepford have done something about it.”
Two newcomers to the community of Stepford (Katherine Ross
& Paula Prentiss) search for the reason the wives of Stepford are
mysteriously becoming sexy, robot women. This movie glues you
to your seat and makes you ask if this can really happen. The supreme

Have you ever thought about joining the navy and seeing the
world? See this great comedy-drama of life aboard a World War II
cargo ship, and you might change your mind. Henry Fonda stars as
“Mr. Roberts”, restless officer wishing for combat duty. James Cag
ney is the captain, and he fias an ulterior motive for denying Roberts’
transfer — he wants Roberts to stay and run the ship for him while
he attends to “other things ”. The irresponsible ensign is played
by Jack Lemon. Come laugh and cry with this classic crew.
Arts
If you have 108 minutes to spare, come see "The Conformist,”
the sixth and final film in a series brought to you by the Arts Com
mittee. It is a story of a rising young Fascist assassin in the ’30’s,
his various loves, and his desires for normalcy and security. The
director Bernardo Bertolucci received best director recognition by
the National Society of Film Critics for this film and has since be
come well known for his direction of “Last Tango in Paris.”

each time. They have performed commercials and their original
material qualified for the quarterfinals in a national song writing
contest. Besides original songs, the group plays Cat Stevens, Brewer
and Shipley, Loggins and Messina, and more. Morning has been
playing the clubs in Austin and is originally from San Antonio, where
the group got its start. Morning will be at the Basement on Friday,
April 23, from 8-12 p.m. Come hear some fresh, original music.
