The Lion Jack Cardiff, USA, 1962, 96m One of Holden’s greatest passions was the African continent; he established The Mount Kenya Game Ranch in the mid-‘60s, which he often referred to as his greatest accomplishment. This unusual and little known 1962 film was made as an expression of love for Kenya and its wildlife population in particular. Holden plays Robert Hayward, a divorcé who travels to Kenya at the behest of his ex-wife (Capucine, one of Holden’s greatest loves off screen). They are both concerned about their daughter Tina (Pamela Franklin), who has developed a bond with a full-grown lion. Holden is excellent in the role of the quietly anguished Hayward, and Franklin was a magical child actress. The film is magnificently photographed, which comes as no surprise: it was directed by one of the greatest color cinematographers in the history of the medium, Jack Cardiff. With Trevor Howard as Franklin’s stepfather. See both these films for the price of one! Buy a ticket to one screening & see the following feature free.

Picnic Joshua Logan, USA, 1955, 115m Joshua Logan’s film version of the William Inge stage hit set hearts aflutter for years to come, and contains one of Hollywood’s most iconic moments: the slow, serpentine dance of desire between Kim Novak’s Madge and Holden’s Hal, a drifter who has arrived in the heart of the Midwest to stir things up right before the annual Labor Day picnic. The scene is wonderful (as is the song they’re dancing to, “Moonglow”), but so is the rest of the movie, as Logan and his cast potently realize Inge’s trademark oppositions between sexual repression and awakening, youth and age. Novak is in her vulnerably ethereal prime, and this is probably Holden’s most sexually magnetic performance. With Cliff Robertson as Hal’s old frat buddy, Betty Field as Novak’s mother, Susan Strasberg as her sister and Rosalind Russell as the schoolteacher. Shot in Technicolor by one of Hollywood’s greatest cameramen, James Wong Howe.
