IT'S
A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD
starring "everyone who's ever been funny!"
After a long prison sentence Smiler Grogan (Jimmy Durante) is
heading at high speed to a California park where he hid $350,000
from a job 15 years previously. He accidentally careens over a cliff
in view of four cars whose occupants go down to help. The dying
Grogan gives details of where the money is buried and when the
witnesses fail to agree on sharing the cash, a crazy chase develops
across the state.

In honor of John Wayne's
Birthday we will be showing a movie from his illustrious career.
The
Searchers Ethan
Edwards, returned from the Civil War to the Texas ranch of his
brother, hopes to find a home with his family and to be near the
woman he obviously but secretly loves. But a Comanche raid destroys
these plans, and Ethan sets out, along with his 1/8 Indian nephew
Martin, on a years-long journey to find the niece kidnapped by the
Indians under Chief Scar. But as the quest goes on, Martin begins to
realize that his uncle's hatred for the Indians is beginning to
spill over onto his now-assimilated niece. Martin becomes uncertain
whether Ethan plans to rescue Debbie...or kill her.
