Along with Hanson, Franklin and Gus, the boys plan a daring raid on the Riviera Hotel Casino in Las Vegas during International Elvis Week. Decked out in high collars, glittering belted jumpsuits and sideburns for miles, the gang hits the strip in search of their jackpot. But, blinded by the dollar signs in their eyes, they fail to see that their main obstacle will not be security, but each other's greed, not to mention the unexpected meddling of the scheming Cybil and her larcenous son Jesse, who get caught up in the middle of the feuding felons as their grand scheme begins to go bankrupt. Kevin Costner; Kurt Russell 11/19/2019 043396563629 3,000 Miles to Graceland [Blu-ray] 1999 First, I guess you need to know something about them: "The beautiful ones. The flawless four. Everyone wanted to be them. You know them. They went to your school, too. First there's Courtney "Satan-in-Heels" Shayne (Rose McGowan) and her pawn, the dense but dangerous Marcie Fox (Julie Benz), a legend in her own little mind. Then there's angelic Julie Freedman (Rebecca Gayheart), doomed to be popular because of her pretty face. And lastly, the teen dream herself, Elizabeth Purr. When an ordinary kidnapping prank leaves the future prom queen dead (accidentally gagged with a jawbreaker), a deadly sweet prank leads to cover-up makeover in this edgy and unpredictable comedy. But there will be no mercy as prom night arrives, bringing this spirited tale to its cruel tiara-dropping conclusion.

Paul Scofield;Wendy Hiller;Robert Shaw 10/18/2019 043396560130 David Crosby: Remember My Name [Blu-ray] 2019 A revealing and deeply personal documentary exploring the life and creative renaissance of music icon David Crosby. A cultural force for over fifty years, Crosby faced an uncertain future after the 2015 dissolution of Crosby, Stills and Nash. Racked with health issues and personal obstacles, Crosby forged a new path at the age of 77. Seeking out younger musicians and recording a pair of critically-praised new albums, Crosby now sets out to make a mark in a world now so different from the generation he came to define in the 60s. With unflinching honesty, self-examination, regret, fear, exuberance and an unshakable belief in family and the transformative nature of music, Crosby shares his often-challenging journey with humor and bite. This inspirational story, filled with music, will speak to loyal fans, and legions of new ones. David Crosby 10/16/2019 043396560147 The Swan Princess: 25th Anniversary [Blu-ray] 1994 Celebrate the 25th anniversary of the original classic: THE SWAN PRINCESS, a magical, musical animated adventure based on the classic fairy tale "Swan Lake" that captured the hearts of audiences around the world!

Aurora Greenway (Shirley MacLaine, reprising the role that won her the 1983 Best Actress Academy Award.) returns in an acclaimed continuation of the much-loved saga that began with the 1983 Best Picture Oscar-winner Terms of Endearment. The generations grow, but life still spins around Aurora like a cyclone: her rebellious granddaughter (Juliette Lewis) wants to run off with Mr. Wrong; a snooty rival (Miranda Richardson) has come up with new ways to meddle in Aurora's life; her longtime spinster housekeeper (Marion Ross) is ready to ditch domestic work for the domestic bliss of matrimony; her great-grandson is like a poison pill; and her shrink (Bill Paxton) is more than eager to cross the line separating client relationships and romantic entanglement. Welcome back, Aurora. We've missed you. Shirley MacLaine; Bill Paxton; Juliette Lewis; Miranda Richardson; Ben Johnson; Scott Wolf Drama 11/5/2019 032429311559 On A Clear Day You Can See Forever 1970 The talents of acclaimed director Vincente Minnelli (Meet Me in St. Louis, An American In Paris) and legend Barbra Streisand combine to bring this Broadway production to the screen in grand fashion. Streisand is Daisy Gamble, a kooky chain-smoker desperate to kick the habit. She finds the perfect cure in the form of Dr. Marc Chabot (Yves Montand), a psychiatrist who uses hypnosis. However, when Daisy goes into a trance, she can regress into past lives and different personalitiesincluding "Melinda," a 19th-century English coquette. And before you can say amour, Dr. Marc has fallen in love with the enthralling, elusive Melinda... while Daisy, in turn, finds herself falling head-over-heels for the handsome hypnotist! Bob Newhart and Jack Nicholson add to the tune-filled fun in this romantic romp. Barbra Streisand; Yves Montand; Bob Newhart; Jack Nicholson Comedy; Drama 11/5/2019 032429311597 Detective Story 1951 Based on the smash Broadway hit, the gritty and gripping drama of Detective Story explodes onto the big screen under the capable direction of William Wyler (The Best Years of Our Lives, Roman Holiday, Ben-Hur). Set amidst the hectic activity of a New York City police station, Kirk Douglas stars as the principled, rigid detective whose personal code has become twisted from dealing with too many criminals. Eleanor Parker (Jaged, The Sound of Music) is his wife, tormented by a guilty secret. While the business of the precinct swirls around them from a case involving a frightened shoplifter (Lee Grant) to an amusing burglar (Joseph Wiseman) - the couples personal conflict reaches an explosive, unforgettable climax. Academy Award 2 nominations went to Wyler (for best director), Parker (best actress), Grant (best supporting actress) and the writing team of Robert Wyler and Philip Yordan for their vivid screenplay. Kirk Douglas; Eleanor Parker; William Bendix; Cathy O'Donnell Crime; Drama; Film-Noir 11/5/2019 032429311603 Goodbye, Columbus 1969 This unorthodox and bittersweet comedy received an Oscar nomination for Best Screenplay Based on Another Medium. Philip Roth's best-selling social satire brings together Richard Benjamin and Ali MacGraw, even though they're not exactly suited for each other.

  • ATP 2033 – Transcript
    The University of Detroit mercy presents another encore presentation of a classic ask the professor radio program today's show takes us back to October 2005. Thank you so much Michael Jayson. This is Ask the Professor, the radio show where you match wits with the University of Detroit Mercy witless professors in an unrehearsed session of questions and answers here in Motown. I'd like to introduce today's panel to you and then our special guest, I should say guests in the plural. So let me start at the far end of the table from the Department of Communication Studies our media maven himself, It's Professor Jerry Curtsinger. The L.S. program. Excellent. I spent about an hour talking about that a little while ago. Trust me, who is the director? It’s Stephen Manning. Manning is. Okay, I know it's shifted. Yes, it did. It really did and I'm here because I'm not in hockey for a change. But we are so glad, but we're so glad that puck is back in our house, I couldn't stand another one of those CBC movies on Saturday night. The worst part is that Mac’s On Third I think is no more, I know. Oh, and we send out condolences first of all to Tony Bruce, and very sadly Tony's mother has passed away. So, again, our deepest sympathies and condolences to the whole Bruce family who always treated us like family. So we're sad to hear that. Truly, I know that the issue is a legalistic one, it's the famous Michigan Liquor Control Board thing that is just__ Poor Tony, so we had hopes and prayers that things work out for Tony and that someday we'll be back down at Mac’s eating some hamburgers and taping some great shows.
