The Life and Times of
Judge Roy Bean (Cinema;

Directed by John Huston with
Paul Newman as the Judge and
Ava Gardner as Lili Langtry.
Based on the life of the
Wild-West Judge who once
acquitted a white man who
killed a Chinese because "I
can't find any law in my books
against killing a Chinese."
Contempt (Wilson Hall;
4:30,7, and 9 p.m.; series pass).
Directed by Jean-Luc Godard
vaguely from Moravia's Ghost
at Noon. Ostensibly about the
effects of lack of vision and
commerce on art, Godard's
film becomes less an
exploration of these issues in
the marriage of Michel Piccoli
and Brigitte Bardot than of the
confrontation of mere man
with myth and power. Fritz
Lang's performance as the
legendary director groping
after vision dominates the film.
M, (Gilmer Hall; 7:30 p.m.;
German Club). Fritz Lang's
first sound film, made in
Germany in 1932, is also one
of his greatest. Peter Lorre's
great performance as a
terrified, suffering sexual
psychopath who murders little
girls is one great unforgettable
cry of anguish. Lang
concentrates on the ironies and
terrors of Lorre's situation as
the underworld tracks down
the man who has disturbed the
business of crime.
THURSDAY
A Fistful of Dollars (Wilson
Hall; 5:30 8, and 10:30 p.m.;
$0.75 or season ticket)' 1964.
Directed by Sergio Leone and
starring Clint Eastwood.
