THE BEAST MUST DIE

LA BESTIA DEBE MORIR

1952, 95 min, Argentina, Dir: Román Viñoly Barreto

“I am going to kill a man. I don’t know his name, I don’t know where he lives, I have no idea what he looks like. But I am going to find him and kill him …” A mystery writer adopts a new identity to track down the hit-and-run driver who killed his son. Based on Nicholas Blake’s landmark 1938 novel of psychological suspense, this superb film has been gorgeously restored.

GILDA

1946, Sony Repertory, 110 min, USA, Dir: Charles Vidor

Put the Blame on Mame! GILDA put Glenn Ford on the map as one of the unique leading men of his generation, and helped elevate Rita Hayworth to Hollywood superstardom in the 1940s. Rita stars as the sultry, torch-singing wife of a South American casino owner (George Macready), who finds herself in serious hot water when she re-connects with former flame Ford. "This is Gilda, Beautiful Deadly, Using all a Woman's Weapons - in Love - and for Revenge."
