The Dryden’s fourth annual summer series of films never made available on US home video in any format begins on July 17 with a new 35mm print of Jacques Demy’s 1972 take on the Brothers Grimm tale, The Pied Piper, starring pop superstar Donovan. This screening is part of a North American tour of The Pied Piper arranged by George Eastman House in collaboration with Paramount Pictures. In conjunction with the Dryden’s Ennio Morricone retrospective (see related article in this issue), we’ll present two crime thrillers with a score by the maestro: The Burglars (July 24), a European heist picture with Jean-Paul Belmondo; and the controversial directorial debut of celebrated cinematographer Gordon Willis, Windows (August 21). Speaking of great film music, there’s an absolutely lovely score by Hungarian émigré Miklos Rosza in Vincente Minnelli and Gottfried Reinhardt’s romantic MGM triptych The Story of Three Loves (August 7). We’ll also offer two critical views of American suburban domesticity in the 1950s with Martin Ritt’s No Down Payment (July 31) and Douglas Sirk’s There’s Always Tomorrow (August 14), the latter featuring the fourth and final big-screen pairing of Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwyck. The last not-on-video offering is Agnès Varda’s Kung-fu Master (August 28). Not a martial arts movie, this provocative feature stars English actress Jane Birkin as a 40-year-old divorcee who has a fleeting affair with a 14-year-old boy (Mathieu Demy, son of Varda and Jacques Demy).
