(R, 1985, 112 min)
After witnessing a brutal murder, young Amish boy Samuel (Lukas Haas) and his mother Rachel (Kelly McGillis) seek protection from police officer John Book (Harrison Ford in his only Oscar-nominated performance). When Book uncovers evidence of police corruption involving narcotics lieutenant James McFee (Danny Glover), Book must take Rachel and Samuel, and flee to the Amish countryside where Rachel grew up. There, immersed in Amish culture and tradition, Book and Rachel begin a cautious romance.

Bob Swaim’s MASQUERADE
(R, 1988, 91 min)
A hugely underappreciated and unpredictable late-80s mystery-thriller from the producer of “Law and Order”! Olivia (Meg Tilly) seems to have it all: good looks, good breeding and a two-hundred-million-dollar fortune. Enter Tim (Rob Lowe), the sexy sailing instructor who's not ashamed of social climbing for sport. And when he sets his sights on Olivia, she falls under the seductive spell of this handsome stranger, but does he genuinely love her, or does he have something unimaginable on his mind?
