Young and in love, newlyweds Helene (Mary Johnson) and Sommer (William Dieterle, who also directed) endure an enforced separation when the accidental death of a nightclub owner--who was harassing Helene and incurred her husband's wrath--lands Sommer in jail. There his sexual longing finds other outlets in the absence of women, namely with a handsome young cellmate. Meanwhile, Helene aches for the comfort of her husband's embrace, and she finds solace in the arms of her kind employer. Exemplary of the creative freedom and unfettered cultural mores of Germany's Weimar period, this gem of the silent period was later banned under Nazi law. Dieterle's treatment of his subject matter is remarkable both for its lack of inhibition and its mixture of melodrama and eroticism with genuine tenderness. The stunning photography, craft, and restrained, subtle performances make this film an enduring masterpiece.

A powerfully graphic film (even though no violence is ever shown on the screen itself) about an Austrian family who goes on a country vacation and become the victims of two cold-blooded psychopaths who are out to torture them with their "funny games." Haneke's point, that fictional violence is as real as the real world's, is presented chillingly in this extremely well-acted, yet potentially offensive effort. Weak of stomach, beware.

GRAN CASINO: A classic of the Golden Age of Mexican cinema, GRAN CASINO was directed by legendary Spanish filmmaker Luis Bunuel, in one of his rare excursions into purely mainstream film. In the early 1900s, Gerardo (Jorge Negrete) and Demetrio convince an Argentinean oil magnate to hire them, despite being escaped convicts. However, their attempt to blend in and lead new lives is complicated when their employer disappears, only to be replaced by his beautiful sister Mercedes. Mercedes suspects Gerardo and Demetrio of wrongdoing, perhaps even murder, in connection to her brother's vanishing, but is distressed by her growing attraction to the handsome Gerardo. GRAN CASINO is romantic melodrama as only the Mexican classical cinema could do it. THE YOUNG ONE: A black New Orleans jazz musician flees to a remote coastal island in order to escape the wrath of a lynch mob. While hiding out on the island, he befriends a young white girl, much to the distrust of the island's sherriff, who is secretly involved with the girl. Once a search party from the mainland arrives to escort the musician back, the delicate veneer of trust which existed between the musician and the sherriff is shattered, and the sherriff must confront the truths about his crime, and more importantly, his own depraved nature.
