April 2 1968 was the premiere of 2001: A Space Odyssey.
This film finally got Stanley Kubrick his Oscar, for visual effects, not director or writer. Ah well, still a sci fi classic and one of the most visually trippy movies ever. Dave's battle with supercomputer Hal is quite fab.

#BOTD: Sterling Holloway. What a voice! He was a good supporting actor in 2 Barbara Stanwyck films, as Willie in Remember The Night and Dan in Meet John Doe. He did great voice work for Disney, especially as the Cheshire Cat in Alice In Wonderland and Kaa the Snake in Jungle Book

Dec. 19 1961 was the premiere of Judgment at Nuremberg
Abby Mann's powerful script about the Nazi trials at Nuremberg is bolstered by Maximilian Schell's Oscar winning role, with superb support by Montgomery Clift and Judy Garland as Holocaust victims. A brilliant look at justice

Nov. 19 1943 was the premiere of Shadow of A Doubt.
Alfred Hitchcock's David Lynch movie, about the evil lurking beneath the pleasant veneer of small town USA. Teresa Wright and Joseph Cotton are terrific in the gripping script by playwright Thornton Wilder. Uncle Charlie is home

Nov. 13 1967 was the premiere of The Fearless Vampire Killers.
Sharon Tate only made 6 films and this was her best, as an innkeeper's daughter who falls prey to a vampire. Terrific salute to Hammer horror; great bumbling lead by Jack MacGowran and a menacing Count by Ferdy Mayne

Aug. 11 1960 was the premiere of Black Sunday.
You want horror? Mario Bava's gothic masterpiece opens with villagers torturing a witch, driving a spiked mask into her face. Would anyone be surprised that she comes back for revenge? A Bava classic, with the great Barbara Steele.

July 16 1958 was the premiere of The Fly.
Yes, David Cronenberg's remake is superb, but I have great affection for this original version. Vincent Price is terrific, the movie is very faithful to George Langelaan's short story, and that ending is a knockout. 1950s horror was cool!

June 29 2001 was the premiere of A.I. Artificial Intelligence.
Stanley Kubrick conceived this sci fi story of an android child, but it was Steven Spielberg who directed it after his death. I think it's stunning, especially the startling Ice Age when humanity becomes extinct.

June 17 1987 was the premiere of Full Metal Jacket.
Stanley Kubrick’s Vietnam saga asks what’s worse, a sadistic boot camp or snipers shooting at you in combat? Tough choice. Part horror film (Vincent D’Onofrio became a cool psychotic), this can be one cold, cruel film to endure.

May 28 1976 was the premiere of The Man Who Fell To Earth.
Nicolas Roeg's sci fi classic blew me away when I saw it on a large screen cinema; Roeg's cinematography is always captivating. Good vehicle for David Bowie as the alien Newton, fine support by Candy Clark and Buck Henry
