| Delightful Streak: A Two-Day
Tribute to Arthur Hiller
This is an Aero Theatre Exclusive!
After a successful career in Canadian
television, director Arthur Hiller moved on to Hollywood and the cinema and created some
of the most beloved films of his era. Known for a broad array of comedies including
trenchant satires (THE HOSPITAL, THE AMERICANIZATION OF EMILY), stage adaptations (PLAZA
SUITE), and action-filled farces (THE IN-LAWS, SILVER STREAK), Hiller
also directed one of the greatest tearjerkers in history, LOVE STORY. In a career spanning
50 years and dozens of films, Hiller has proven himself to be one of Hollywood's most
reliable entertainers. Join us for a two-night tribute to the director that includes
double features of his funniest comedies.
We are thrilled to welcome director Arthur Hiller to the
Aero Theatre!

Thursday, February 4 - 7:30 PM
Double Feature: THE
IN-LAWS, 1979, Warner Bros., 103 min. Dir. Arthur Hiller. Giant tse-tse flies, the
Bay of Pigs, dictators with talking hands, and flames on your car: one of the
laugh-out-loud funniest movies of the past 25 years stars Alan Arkin as a middle-class
dentist who finds himself thrown together with delusional CIA agent Peter Falk when their
children decide to get married. Serpentine, Shel, serpentine!!
SILVER STREAK, 1976, 20th Century Fox, 114 min.
Director Arthur Hillers action comedy was the first of four team-ups by comedy
giants Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder. Bored book publisher George Caldwell (Wilder) finds
romance and murder with Hilly Burns (Jill Clayburgh) on a cross-country bullet train from
Los Angeles to Chicago. Wilder befriends thief Grover Muldoon (Pryor) to get help fighting
the murderers and saving Hilly. Discussion in between films with director Arthur Hiller.

Friday, February 5 - 7:30 PM
Double Feature: THE OUT OF TOWNERS, 1970, Paramount, 98 min. Dir.
Arthur Hiller. Likable Midwesterners Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis get more than they
bargain for when they take a trip to New York and experience an unending string of
catastrophes over the course of three days. Neil Simon scripted this classic comedy, which
makes lost luggage and canceled hotel reservations, diverted flights and missed trains,
and even muggings and hostile cops surprisingly amusing.

PLAZA SUITE, 1971, Paramount, 114 min. Director Arthur
Hiller's second Neil Simon adaptation is a hilarious collection of three stories, each set
in New York's Plaza Hotel and each starring Walter Matthau - in three different roles! The
episodes follow Matthau as a man having an affair with his secretary, as a sleazy
Hollywood producer, and as the father of a nervous bride-to-be; all three characters
provide insights into relationships that are both funny and true. Discussion in between films with director Arthur Hiller.
