SUMMARY:ShowNews Academy - It's a Mad\, Mad\, Mad\, Mad World
DESCRIPTION:Smiler Grogan\, a recently released convict\, crashes his car on California State Route 74. With his dying breath\, Grogan tells a group of motorists who stop to help him about $350\,000 (equivalent to $3\,483\,261 in 2023) buried in Santa Rosita State Park under “a big W.” Failing to negotiate a satisfactory way to split the money\, the four cars begin a mad dash to the park\, having several mishaps along the way: \nMelville Crump\, a dentist on a second honeymoon with his wife Monica\, charters a rickety biplane to Santa Rosita. Despite arriving in Santa Rosita first\, they get locked in a hardware store’s basement. After several attempts to break out\, they blow out the wall of the basement with dynamite\, and hire a cab to get to the park.\nDing Bell and Benjy Benjamin\, two friends on their way to Las Vegas\, charter a small airplane. When their alcoholic pilot knocks himself out\, they struggle to land the plane themselves; once on the ground\, they also hire a cab to get to the park.\nJ. Russell Finch\, a businessman traveling with his wife Emmeline and her mother Mrs. Marcus\, crashes into the furniture truck of Lennie Pike\, another witness of Grogan’s crash. Finch persuades British Army Lieutenant Colonel J. Algernon Hawthorne to drive them to Santa Rosita. After a nasty argument\, Mrs. Marcus and Emmeline exit the car to hitch their own ride. Hawthorne crashes the car while driving through a tunnel\, and he and Finch come to blows.\nPike stops motorist Otto Meyer for a ride and tells him about the money; the greedy Meyer decides to search for the treasure himself\, and abandons Pike\, convincing two service station attendants to detain him. Pike destroys the station\, steals a tow truck\, and picks up Mrs. Marcus and Emmeline. Mrs. Marcus calls her son Sylvester\, who lives close to Santa Rosita\, but he misunderstands and drives to meet her. Eventually\, the group reunites with Russell and Hawthorne\, and continues to head to the park.\nMeyer stops to help a stranded miner get back to his very rural cabin. Trying to get back to the highway\, Meyer fails at crossing a deep river and his car is swept away\, leading him to steal another motorist’s car.\nMeanwhile\, Santa Rosita Police Captain T. G. Culpeper\, hoping to tie up the Grogan case before his impending retirement\, secretly has the motorists shadowed throughout their various adventures. After a furious argument with his wife and daughter\, Culpeper learns that his pension will be a pittance and has a mental breakdown. \nThe entire group\, now consisting of fourteen people\, arrives at Santa Rosita at nearly the same time\, and searches frantically for the “big W”\, which turns out to be a gathering of four palm trees. Culpeper arrives shortly after and observes the group.  After the group digs up a suitcase full of cash\, Culpeper identifies himself and informs the group that they are wanted by the police. He convinces them to turn themselves in and hope for leniency. \nThe motorists realize that Culpeper is not returning to the police station with them\, but is stealing the money for himself. The men chase him into an abandoned building and onto a rickety fire escape\, which starts to collapse under them. The briefcase containing the money falls open\, scattering the cash to the wind. When Culpeper and the men all pile onto a fire department ladder sent to rescue them\, their combined weight causes it to spin uncontrollably and fling them all off\, leaving them heavily injured. \nIn the prison hospital\, the men bemoan the loss of the money and blame their injuries on Culpeper\, who responds that due to his lost pension (which his boss had successfully negotiated back\, thus making his illegal actions unnecessary)\, the ruined relationship with his family\, and the likelihood that the judge will probably give him the harshest sentence\, he may never laugh again. Mrs. Marcus\, flanked by Emmeline and Monica\, enters and begins berating the men\, only for her to slip on a banana peel and fall. All the men except Sylvester roar with laughter\, and\, after a brief hesitation\, Culpeper joins in.

SUMMARY:ShowNews Academy - Who Framed Roger Rabbit
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Robert Zemeckis \nStarring Christopher Lloyd\, Joanna Cassidy\, Charles Fleischer\, Bob Hoskins \nEach month ShowNews presents a film at Academy Cinemas picked by a special film industry guest. For October\, the chosen film is the beloved animation-live-action masterpiece WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT? Chosen especially by Academy Cinemas regular Rosemary Woodman\, a former animator herself! \nTickets only $10!\nHappy Hour drinks from 7pm.\nScreening 8:15pm. \nIt’s 1947 Hollywood\, and Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskin\, THE LONG GOOD FRIDAY)\, a down-on-his-luck detective\, is hired to find proof that Marvin Acme\, gag factory mogul and owner of Toontown\, is playing hanky-panky with femme fatale Jessica Rabbit\, wife of Maroon Cartoon superstar Roger Rabbit. When Acme is found murdered\, all fingers point to Roger\, and the sinister\, power-hungry Judge Doom (Christopher Lloyd\, BACK TO THE FUTURE) is on a mission to bring Roger to justice. Roger begs the Toon-hating Valiant to find the real evildoer and the plot thickens as Eddie uncovers scandal after scandal and realizes the very existence of Toontown is at stake! \nThis multi-Oscar(R) winner (Best Film Editing\, Best Sound Effects Editing\, Best Visual Effects\, Special Achievement In Animation Direction\, 1988) is deliciously outrageous fun the whole family will enjoy.

SUMMARY:A Tell-Tale Heart\, campaign closing
DESCRIPTION:Gianni Ranzuglia’s short adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s gripping short story The Tell-Tale Heart. \nThis dark\, intense and suspenseful tale follows the descent of a man into madness\, as he becomes obsessed with the vulture-like eye of an old man he cares for. Driven by his paranoia and guilt\, he ultimately commits a horrific act\, only to find himself increasingly haunted by his own conscience\, and the psychological torment that follows. \nThe Tell-Tale Heart is a gothic tragedy that explores themes of repressed guilt\, paranoia\, and the human capacity for self-deception. Our goal is to stay true to the original story while bringing a fresh visual interpretation that will resonate with contemporary audiences. The focal point of view being the self-deceiving\, darkly twisted and menacing intensity of the young protagonist.

SUMMARY:ShowNews Academy - Big Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:Directed by John Milius \nStarring Gary Busey\, William Katt\, Jan-Michael Vincent\, Patti D’Arbanville\, Lee Purcell \nEach month ShowNews presents a film at Academy Cinemas picked by a special film industry guest. For August\, the chosen film is the 70s surfing buddy flick BIG WEDNESDAY! \nTickets only $10!\nHappy Hour drinks from 7pm.\nScreening 8:15pm. \nNo matter what rolled in on the tides of time\, California surfing buddies Matt\, Jack and Leory knew they’d stick together. And that they’d be ready when a rare 20-foot swell hit the coast at last. BIG WEDNESDAY celebrates surfing as much as the most dedicated kid who ever waxed a board. It’s also a fascinating 1962-1974 chronicle of friendships and lifestyles in transition. John Milius (APOCALYPSE NOW\, RED DAWN) directs and co-scripts with a passion for the ultimate ride and a truthful feel for those turbulent times.  \nStars Jan-Michael Vincent and William Katt are accomplished surfers; colead Gary Busey (POINT BREAK\, 1991) learned for the role. And the vivid camerawork drops you inside awesome barrels of ocean blue.

SUMMARY:ShowNews Academy - Brewster McCloud
DESCRIPTION:Each month ShowNews presents a film at Academy Cinemas picked by a special film industry guest. For July\, Production Designer Mike Becroft has chosen a hidden gem from legendary American director Robert Altman’s (NASHVILLE\, THE LONG GOODBYE\, McCABE & MRS MILLER) early career: BREWSTER McCLOUD!\nTickets only $10!\nHappy Hour drinks from 7pm.\nScreening 8:30pm.\nDirected by Robert Altman\nStarring Stacy Keach\, Bud Cort\, Sally Kellerman\, René Auberjonois\, Shelley Duvall\, Michael Murphy\nRated R16\n105 minutes | Classic\nBrewster McCloud (Bud Cort) lives deep within the cavernous underground of the Houston Astrodome\, but his dreams rise much higher. He aims to fly. Not in a plane. But with strapped-on wings he’s designing – encouraged by a mysterious woman (Sally Kellerman) who may be his guardian angel. But BREWSTER McCLOUD\, Robert Altman’s wild\, anarchic cult fave\, isn’t about dreams as much as it is about the highs and lows of humanity. It’s a serial-killer mystery. A frenetic car-chase flick. A crazy circus-finale comedy. Shelley Duvall debuts as the tour guide whose seduction of Brewster may lead to his undoing. Ah\, love. The thing that at once shapes and unravels us. The thing that may or may not give us wings
