tho oxanllnor Friday Fob 23 1010 First operation Francois Truffaut the French film director the retrosp tlon movies THE BRINKS JOB Peter Falk and Peter Boyle star In film based on $2 million Brinks robbery carried out by gang of smalltime crooks in 1950 Director William Friedkin interprets the story as comedy of errors Palk and his gang are so incompetent its hrd to believe they could pull off one of the biggest cash hold ups of the century Were sup posed to see the robbers as lovable crooks who have sense of honor and accomplish ment in their work With the police and the FBI portrayed as stupid or sadistic or both The film gives comic twist to one of the mainstays of American mythologythe criminal as folk hero Continues at the Bayficld Mall inema INVASION OI THE SNATCHERS spooky tale about planHIke aliens who invade San Fran cisco turning people into emor tionless zombies Donald Sutheland plays health department inspector who fights back his fear and paranoia are so convincing you forget how silly the plot really is The first half of the film is much better than the second hall director Philip Kaufman is better at creating suspense than he is at maintaining it but the ending Is such shock that you forget the dead spots Also stars Brooke Adams and Leonard Nimoy Moves to the Imperial starting tonight LORI OF THIC RINGS As an exercise in creative animation Ralph Bakshis film version of the Tolkien trilogy is tremendous but theres simp ly too much material for film to do justice to the story The best thing about the film is the way the evil characters are brought to life on the screen the worst thing is the Disney like cuteness of the good characters Moves to the Im perial starting tonight BODY SAME TIME NEXT YEAR Bernard Slades Broadway hit becomes starring vehicle to Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn who act out six episodes of 26 year extramarital affair The film tries to hard to milk the humor from an improbable plot strangely enough the most effective scenes are the dramatic ones not the humorous ones As Aida and Burster grew older we get glimpse of the changes in American society from 1951 to 1977 Despite slow and shaky beginning Same Time Next Year does offer more than says active of his films at the American Film Institute reminds him of his first surgical opera quick oneliners Continues at the Imperial Backstage SUPERMAN Disappointing The film is splintered by different at titudes towards Superman and even mammoth budget cant make up for an uneven script The makers of the film cant decide whether the Man of Steel should be treated like God like hero or an anachronistic comic book character so it tries to present him as both But Christopher Reeve is perfect Superman and Margot Kidders LOis Lane is delight Continues at the Imperial THE WARRIORS night in the life of New York street gang The plot is simple enough for tenyear old to follow the Warriors are oney Island gang trying to ride the subways back to home territory after being blamed for the murder of Bronx gang leader Among the way theres plenty of Violence baseball bats fists and knives are the preferred weapons and enough bad dialogue to fill three Jacquiling Susann novels The film tries so hard to be hip that you cant take it serioust and the Violence doesnt have any shock effect because its so meaningless ontinues at the Bayficld Mall inenia nightscene
