Movie Mania

More blasts from cinema’s past will commence on Saturday, June 11, with the 1944 film noir honey Laura (left), starring Dana Andrews as the sleuth who falls in love with the memory of a murdered woman (played by Gene Tierney) as he attempts to reveal the killer amid a nest of vipers (including Vincent Price, Clifton Webb and Judith Anderson). Rome’s Capitol Theatre, 220 W. Dominick St., offers 35mm screenings at 2:30 and 7 p.m., plus the comedy short The Kitchen Cynic starring slow-burn specialist Edgar Kennedy. Admission is $5.50 for adults, $1.50 for children. For Capitol details, call 337-6453. And on Monday, June 13, 7:30 p.m., the Syracuse Cinephile Society concludes its spring season at the Spaghetti Warehouse, 680 N. Clinton St., with the Paramount all-star comedy The Big Broadcast of 1938, which features (above, from left, Ben Blue, Dorothy Lamour, W.C. Fields, Shirley Ross, Bob Hope and Martha Raye). The plot, actually more of a trifle concerning antics on a super-fast ocean liner, provides the loose framework for vintage Fields routines and the timeless duet as Ross and Hope warble the poignant kiss-off lament “Thanks for the Memory.” Admission is $3, with food available from the venue’s menu. For information, call 475-1807.
