THE GREAT
ESCAPE
PLOT
SUMMARY
"In 1943,
the Germans opened Stalag Luft North, a maximum-security prisoner-of-war camp,
designed to hold even the craftiest escape artists. In doing so, the Nazis
unwittingly assembled the finest escape team in military history. The first
half focuses on the escape efforts within the camp and the process of secretly
digging an escape tunner. The second half follows the German Gestapo's massive
effort to track down the escaped prisoners; now scattered throughout the Third
Reich, as they attempt to make their way to England and various neutral
countries. Based on a true story." - iTunes

CHINATOWN
PLOT
SUMMARY
'"You may think you
know what you're dealing with, but believe me, you don't," warns water baron
Noah Cross (John Huston), when smooth cop-turned-private eye J.J. "Jake" Gittes
(Jack Nicholson) starts nosing around Cross's water diversion scheme. That
proves to ben the omnious lesson of Chinatown, Roman Polanski's critically
lauded 1974 revision of 1940's film noir detective movies. In 1930s Los
Angeles, "matrimonial work" specialist Gittes is hired by Evelyn Mulwray (Fay
Dunaway) to tail her husband, Water Department engineer Hollis Mulwray (Darrel
Zwerling). Gittes photographs him in the company of a young blonde and figures
the case is closed, only to discover that the real Mrs. Mulwray had nothing to
do with hiring Gittes in the first place. When Hollis turns up dead, Gittes
decides to investigate further, encountering a shady old-age home, corrupt
bureaucrats, angry orange farmers, and a nostril-slicing thug (Polanski) along
the way. By the time he confronts Cross, Evelyn's father and Mulwray's former
business partner Jake thinks he knows everything, but an even more sordid truth
awaits him. When circumstances force Jake to return to his old beat in
Chinatown, he realizes just how impotent he is against the wealthy, depraved
Cross. "Forget it, Jake," his old partner tells him. "It's Chinatown."
Reworking the somber underpinnings of detective noir along more pessimistic
lines, Polanski and screenwriter Robert Towne convey a '70s-inflected critique
of capitalist and bureaucratic malevolence in a carefully detailed period piece
harkening back to the genre's roots in the 1930's and '40s. Gittes always has a
smart comeback like Humphrey Bogart's Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe, but the
corruption Gittes finds is too deep for one man to stop. Other noir revisions,
such as Robert Altman's The Long Goodbye (1973) and Arthur Penn's Night Moves
(1975), also centered on the detective's inefficacy in an uncertain '70's
world, but Chinatown's period sheen renders this dilemma at once contemporary
and timeless, pointing to larger implications about the effects of corporate
rapaciousness on individuals. Polanski and Towne clashed over Chinatown's
ending; Polanski won the fight, but Towne won the Oscar for Best Screenplay.
Chinatown was nominated for ten other Oscars, including Picture, Director,
Actor, Actress, Cinematography, Art Direction, Costumes, and Score.' -

THE
ITALIAN JOB
PLOT
SUMMARY
The quintessential
British caper film of the 1960s, The Italian Job is a flashy, fast romp that
chases a team of career criminals throughout one of the biggest international
gold heists in history. Michael Caine is Charlie Croker, a stylish robber and
skirt-chaser just out of British prison. Shunning rehabiliation for recidivism,
Croker takes over "The Italian Job," a complicated plan to hijack gold bullion
from Italy - right from underneath the noses of the Italian Police and the
Mafia. The job, whose original mastermind was murdered, clearly requires the
sponsorship of a richer, more established criminal than Croker. He turns to the
auspices of the eccentric Mr. Bridger (Noel Coward in his last film role), a
suave, regal, incarcerated English crime boss with a peculiar fascination with
the Queen. Bridger provides Croker with a quirky group of Britain's most
infamous computer hackers (including a lascivious Benny Hill), bank robbers,
hijackers, and getaway drivers - the ex -con is soon well on his way to
relieving Italy of the gold. - Aubrey Anne D'Armino, All Movie
Guide.
