THE LINE UP
Don Siegel, the incendiary director of the original “Invasion of the Body Snatchers,” the LEE MARVIN version of “The Killers,” the first “Dirty Harry” movie AND “Private Hell 36” (one of the big rediscoveries of this past May’s Roxie Noir program) kicks out a tough police noir filmed right here in San Francisco! Loosely based on a popular TV show at the time, the film leaves it in the dust. Starring Eli Wallach, Warner Anderson, Richard Jaeckel, Emile Meyer and Robert Keith. Directed by Don Siegel. 86 mins. B&W. 35mm studio archive print. 1958. Shows at 8:00 ONLY!

THE SNIPER
With deadly aim, a deranged lone gunman with a sick desire to kill women is stalking the dark streets of San Francisco! An intense investigation leads to a nerve-wracking and fateful conclusion! A gripping, suspenseful tour de force from the director of “Murder My Sweet” and “Crossfire.” Starring Adolph Menjou, Arthur Franz, Gerald Mohr and Marie Windsor. Directed by Edward Dmytryk. 87 mins. 35mm studio archive print. 1952. Shows at 6:15 and 9:45
