Caged 2:00

1950, Warner Bros. 96 min. Dir. John Cromwell

The best “women behind bars” movie ever made. Sentenced to Pr*son for her role in a robbery that killed her husband, innocent Marie Allen (Oscar-nominated Eleanor Parker), undergoes a degrading transformation in the “joint.” Writer Virginia Kellogg (T-Men) went undercover as an inmate in several southern prisons to research the groundbreaking and controversial script.

Presented in 35mm.

Tomorrow Is Another Day 4:00

1951, WB. 90 min. Dir. Felix Feist

Ruth Roman has one of her best roles ever as Cay Higgins, a hard-as-nails taxi dancer who becomes the object of infatuation for Bill Clark (Steve Cochran), a recently paroled loner who’s never been with a woman. A hotel room, a dirty cop, a gunshot—the perfect jump-off for a fugitives-on-the-lam love story. Feist’s nervy direction ramps up several spectacular set-pieces.

Presented in 35mm.
