Arthur Murray

South Africans, where do you go dancing?

Arthur Murray? The neighbour´s garage?

Me and the wife joined Arthur Murry’s school of dance just before we got married. I could not put one foot in front of the other. It were the best money spent and we have learned the Tango, Mambo, Rumba, Samba, Cha Cha, Foxtrot, Swing, and the Waltz. We have danced for at least 12 years. Have stopped a few years ago however, the great thing is that you can dance anything with anyone. We now join with a few friends and go dance at the dance palace not too far from us regularly. Great exercise and relaxation as well.

Champion $7.19 Powerful drama based on a story by Ring Lardner and set amid the world of pro boxing. In a breakthrough performance, Kirk Douglas plays a young man who reluctantly enters the ring and quickly rises to the top, while using the people who help him and falling under the Mob’s influence. With Marilyn Maxwell, Arthur Kennedy. 100 min. Standard; Soundtracks: English mono; production notes; scene access….

Sonic Nurse $6.95 If all Sonic Youth albums pretty much sound alike, as skeptics grumble, some Sonic Youth albums definitely sound more alike than others. And Sonic Nurse is one of those. Practically Sonic Youth concentrate, the disc manages to sound like a distillation of the band’s career and a promise that they can keep doing this forever. Sonic Youth has trimmed away its more direct hooks, while also curbing it…

The Quiet Man [VHS] $5.61 Blarney and bliss, mixed in equal proportions. John Wayne plays an American boxer who returns to the Emerald Isle, his native land. What he finds there is a fiery prospective spouse (Maureen O’Hara) and a country greener than any Ireland seen before or since–it’s no surprise The Quiet Man won an Oscar for cinematography. It also won an Oscar for John Ford’s direction, his fourth such award. The f…

Maltese Falcon / Movie [VHS] $2.99 Still the tightest, sharpest, and most cynical of Hollywood’s official deathless classics, bracingly tough even by post-Tarantino standards. Humphrey Bogart is Dashiell Hammett’s definitive private eye, Sam Spade, struggling to keep his hard-boiled cool as the double-crosses pile up around his ankles. The plot, which dances all around the stolen Middle Eastern statuette of the title, is too baroqu…

Barry Lyndon [VHS] $2.05 In 1975 the world was at Stanley Kubrick’s feet. His films Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and A Clockwork Orange, released in the previous dozen years, had provoked rapture and consternation–not merely in the film community, but in the culture at large. On the basis of that smashing hat trick, Kubrick was almost certainly the most famous film director of his generation, and absolutely th…

The Way We Were (Special Edition) $3.87 One of the finest screen romances ever teams Robert Redford and Barbra Streisand as two philosophically different types whose love affair stretches from their ’30s college days to marriage and the turmoil of ’50s Hollywood. Bradford Dillman, Viveca Lindfors co-star; fine Marvin Hamlisch score. 118 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital stereo Surround; Su…

Anatomy of a Murder $6.85 Otto Preminger turned this 1959 courtroom drama, based on the popular novel, into terrific adult drama. James Stewart stars as a small-town lawyer who defends an army officer (Ben Gazzara) accused of murdering a bartender who assaulted his wife (Lee Remick). The taut script, large performance by Stewart, and then-daring elements of the story (words like “panties” are spoken in the context of discu…

The Razor’s Edge $6.97 The Somerset Maugham novel should be read by everybody at a certain age (say, early twenties), and this 1946 movie adaptation of The Razor’s Edge stays faithful to the book’s questing spirit. Despite its apparently uncommercial storyline, it was a pet project of Fox honcho Darryl F. Zanuck, who saw the spiritual journey of Larry Darrell (Tyrone Power) as an “adventure” movie. Power, who was newly …
