Plitt Cinema
I&II
Breathless:
Richard Gere and and French
hewcomer Valerie Kaprisky
Star in this well-done remake
of the Jean-Luc Godard 1959
minor classic. Rated R.
E.T. The Extraterrest
rial:
Rated PG.
Chained Heat:
Rated R.
Manor East
Return of the Jedi:
Starts today. Has it already
been three years since the last
one? How time flies when
you’re waiting for the latest se-
luel in the “Star Wars” saga.
■ his is the final installment in
George Lucas’ trilogy, and it
should answer a lot of ques
tions left unanswered in the
first segments. According to
some leaked information, we
will learn the identity of
Luke’s father and will find out
that Luke has a long lost sister.
In addition, a whole new race
of beings, called Ewoks, are
introduced. This one boasts
more than 940 special effects
(Empire had 763). That’s
more than a video game has.
Rated PG.
Man From Snowy
River:
See this one before it leaves.
Even if you don’t like West
erns or the usual “boy grows
to manhood” stories, this is
still an entertaining movie.
Rated PG.
Cheech and Chong’s
Still Smokin’:
Cheech and Chong’s latest
cinematic effort. Rated R.
Post Oak
Blue Thunder:
Roy Scheider stars as a police
helicopter pilot assigned to
test an ultra-sophisticated sur
veillance and attack helicopter
in this fast-paced adventure.
Rated R.
Doctor Detroit:
Dan Aykroyd stars as a mild-
mannered professor who gets
mixed up in Detroit’s under
world. Rated R.
Flashdance:
Being hailed as the next
“Saturday Night Fever,” this
movie has lots of flash, lots of
dancing, but not much plot.
Sort of like MTV on the silver
screen. Jennifer Beals stars as
the welder-by-day, dancer-at-
night. Rated R.
Schulman Six
Spacehunter: Adven
tures in the Forbid
den Zone:
/
Peter Strauss stars as a star-
ship captain who responds to
the distress signal of a ship
wrecked spacecraft and goes
in search of its survivors, three
lovely space maidens. In
3-D. Rated PG.
Tootsie:
Dustin Hoffman stars in Syd
ney Pollack’s hilarious com
edy about a down-and-out
actor who dresses up as a
woman to get a job on a soap
opera. Rated PG.
Lone Wolf McQuade:
The macho, martial arts films
at its worst (or is that best?).
Chuck Norris and David Car-
radine star as two men who
must have some good reason
for beating up on each other.
Rated PG.
Space Raiders
The latest of the “Star Wars”
clones. Something about a 10-
year-old boy taken 10 million
miles into space. The real one
is here at last, so skip the
clones. Rated PG.
Something Wicked
This Way Comes:
Walt Disney is responsible for
this version of Ray Bradbury’s
sci-fi classic. But don’t let that
fool you, it’s scary when Mr.
Dark visits Green Town. Stars
Jason Robards. Rated PG.
My Tutor:
A clone of the “Private Les
sons” vein about a high school
student who falls in love with
his French tutor. Rated R.

Summer movies: sci-fi,
sequels and screwball
by Gary Barker
Battalion Staff
This year, true to form, the
summer movie line-up is
bright, splashy and, well,
many of the movies have this
strange number hanging at
the end of their titles.
It’s sequel time. At least
seven of this summer’s biggest
films are sequels or continua
tions.
Leading the pack of the
summer stampede is “Return
of the Jedi,” which starts today
at Manor East III in Bryan.
The movie completes and
should wrap up all the untidy
situations left in “The Empire
Strikes Back.” Produced at a
cost of $32.5 million, this one
has more scary monsters,
more battle scenes and some
940 special effects (compared
to 763 for “Empire").
Here’s a list of some of the
other coming attractions:
Twilight Zone — The Movie.
With segments directed by
John Landis, Steven Speil-
berg, Joe Dante and George
Miller, this movie promises to
be like four separate episodes
of Rod Serling’s classic show.
The movie stars Dan Ayk
royd, Albert Brooks, Scatman
Crothers, John Lithgow, Vic
Morrow (who was killed in an
accident during filming) and
Kathleen Quinlan.
Superman III. Christopher
Reeve, Margot Kidder, Jackie
Cooper and director Richard
Lester return along with a cast
of new villians, including
Richard Pryor as a computer
genius.
Jaws 3-D. Just when you
thought it was safe to eat your
popcorn. The great white
toothy fellow returns. Stars
Dennis Quaid as the son of the
original Amity Island sheriff,
Roy Scheider.
Smokey is the Bandit Part
III. Buckle your seatbelts.
This one stars Jackie Gleason
as Sheriff Buford T. Justice
and as Burt Reynolds, the out
law'. That’s right, no Burt.
Lots of chase scenes, though.
War Games. Stars Matthew
Broderick as a teenage com
puter whiz who stumbles into
the Pentagon’s defense com
puter and almost starts a nuc
lear war.
The Man with Two Brains.
A Steve Martin/Carl Reiner
collaboration about a surgeon
who falls in love with Kathleen
Turner’s (“Body Heat“) body
but has another brain in mind.
Psycho II. Anthony Per
kins returns as Hitchcock’s
classic schizo, Norman Bates.
Twenty-two years later, he re
turns to Bates Motel. Norman
is not happy when he finds
that the old Bates Motel has
been turned into an “adult
motel.”
Octopussy. The usual
James Bond stuff. Roger
Moore (not the real thing)
stars as 007 and Maud Adams
stars as his latest love.
Never Say Never Again.
The usual James Bond stuff.
Sean Connery (the real thing)
stars as 007 and Barbara Car
rera stars as his latest love.
Staying Alive. Sylvester
“Rocky” Stallone directs John
Travolta in the sequel to
“Saturday Night Fever.” Tra
volta dances his way onto a
Broadway chorus line and the
Bee Gees’s voices haven’t
changed yet.
Brainstorm. Stars Natalie
Wood (the film was delayed
because it was unfinished
when she died) and Christ
opher Walken as a scientist in
a laboratory that develops re
volutionary sensory tech
nology.
Trading Places. Dan Ayk
royd and Eddie Murphy star
in this update of the old
“Prince and the Pauper”
story.
National Lampoon’s Vaca
tion. Chevy Chase stars in the
last Lampoon venture about a
family on a rather comical
cross-country trip. With
Christie Brinkley as Chase’s
libido.
