one of the summer's best films.

ing the innocent. This film is a won
derful social commentary and spoof
films. Midnight. Rated R.

Deal of the Century: Chevy
Chase tries one more time. He
hasn't scored with a decent comedy
since Foul Play, but with co-stars
Sigourney Weaver and Gregory
Hines he may have a shot. Rated R.
Richard Pryor Here and Now:
More of Pryor, this time in New
Orleans. Expect the usual topics —
sex, drugs and growing up. Rated
R.
Risky Business: A delightful
change of pace as far as teen-age
adventures go. This particular film
has wit and charm despite a few plot
problems. Probably one of the most
underrated films of the summer and
fall. Rated R.
Schulman Six
775-2468

they all had been the non
conformists, but they now have be
come members of the establish
ment. Rated R.
Deadly Force: Probably just
another violent movie. Rated PG.
IVIr. Mom: A new movie with no

thriller starring Rutger Hauer, of
Blade Runner fame. Rated R.
Tender Mercies: Stacy Keach is a

country star, who settles down to
begin a new life with a family. This is
another of the year's better pictures.

ican intrigue, this time with Nicke
Nolte and Gene Hackman. Hopeful
ly it's better than Beyond the Limit.
Rated R.
Skyway Twin
Drive-In
822-3300
East
Caboblanco and Graduation
Day: A double feature with nothing
in common. The latter is one of

West
Final Terror and Ator: Go
just to see Ator, one of the funniest
movies released in a long time, and
it didn't even try to be one. Rated R.
