Joel's friend, Miles (Curtis Armstrong), convinces him to take advantage of his newfound freedom to have some fun. On the first night, he raids the liquor cabinet, plays the stereo loudly, and dances around the living room in his underpants, socks, and pink dress shirt to "Old Time Rock and Roll".

The Great Dictator.jpgThe Great Dictator is a 1940 American comedy-drama and anti-Nazi film starring, written, produced, scored, and directed by Charlie Chaplin, following the tradition of many of his other films. Wikipedia

Director: Charlie Chaplin
Screenplay: Charlie Chaplin
Characters: Hynkel, A Jewish Barber
Awards: New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actor, Kinema Junpo Award for Best Foreign Language Film
Plot:During a battle in the last months of World War I, the protagonist, an unnamed soldier (known only in the credits as A Jewish Barber, played by Charlie Chaplin), is fighting for the Central Powers in the army of the fictional nation of Tomainia,[7] comically blundering through the trenches in combat scenes. Upon hearing a fatigued pilot pleading for help, the Barber attempts to rescue the exhausted officer, Commander Schultz. The two board Schultz's nearby airplane and fly off, barely escaping enemy ground fire. Schultz reveals that he is carrying important dispatches that could win the war. However, the plane loses fuel and crashes in a marsh. They both survive, but the Barber suffers from memory loss. As medics arrive, Commander Schultz gives them the dispatches, but is told that the war has just ended and Tomainia lost.

Modern Times 1936

Moderntimes.jpgModern Times is a 1936 comedy film written and directed by Charlie Chaplin in which his iconic Little Tramp character struggles to survive in the modern, industrialized world. The film is a comment on the desperate employment and fiscal conditions many people faced during the Great Depression, conditions created, in Chaplin's view, by the efficiencies of modern industrialization. The movie stars Chaplin, Paulette Goddard, Henry Bergman, Stanley Sandford and Chester Conklin.

        Modern Times was deemed "culturally significant" by the Library of Congress in 1989, and selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry. Fourteen years later, it was screened "out of competition" at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival.
Initial release: January 1, 1936 (USA)
Director: Charlie Chaplin
Running time: 87 minutes
Characters: Ellen Peterson, A Factory Worker, Prison Cellmate, more

RoboCop (2014)

Robocop poster.jpg In 2028 Detroit, when Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman) - a loving husband, father and good cop - is critically injured in the line of duty, the multinational conglomerate OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer.
Director: José Padilha
Stars: Joel Kinnaman, Douglas Urbanski, Abbie Cornish, Gary Oldman
The Buzz: For his English-language debut, Elite Squad (2007) director Jose Padilha has the dubious honor of handling this long-in-development remake that had trouble holding onto its stars before filming began. Even with this enviable cast, in the post-Total Recall (2012), post-Dredd (2012) era, the studio and most everyone involved with this project must be a bit nervous.
