ACROSS 110TH STREET
Directed by Barry Shear
Starring Tony Franciosa and Anthony Quinn
(1972) “Somebody f*** with my balls, I’d talk, too!” philosophizes a hood on the run from ambitious Mafioso Tony Franciosa. Old-style cop Anthony Quinn and Buppie detective Yaphet Kotto are also on the trail, in Hollywood’s first all-hand-held shot feature, filmed entirely in Harlem.
35mm. Approx. 102 min.
12:30, 4:20, 8:10
“A GUTSY AFFAIR.”
– Geoff Andrew, Time Out
“Extremely seedy and violent, Across 110th Street makes extraordinary use of Harlem locations”
– Don Druker, Chicago Reader
COPS AND ROBBERS
Directed by Aram Avakian
(1973) Underpaid, burnt out, and fed up cops Cliff Gorman and Joseph Bologna decide to go for a big heist during the Apollo 11 ticker tape parade, but need backup and payoff from the Mafia — and to get out alive. Scripted by crime icon Donald E. Westlake. Thriller? Spoof? Not exactly.
35mm. Approx. 89 min.
2:30, 6:20, 10:10
“The first movie in a long time to understand, rather than merely to exploit, its New York City locales.”
– Roger Greenspun, The New York Times
“The film wrings both excitement and humor.”
– Rob Nixon, TCM
