John Boorman. 1967\, 92 mins. 35mm. With Lee Marvin\, Angie Dickinson\, Carroll O'Connor. Relea sed with the tag line 'He thrived on two kinds of people . . . his victims and his women\,' Point Blank was a hard-boiled crime film via 1960s mod f lash. Faced with the problem of how to present the taciturn\, amoral Parke r (here named Walker) onscreen\, John Boorman opted to rely on the sheer p hysical menace of Lee Marvin. And while the film may be highly stylized—sa turated southern California light\, spare interiors\, bright colors—its pr esentation of Parker as a relentless machine running on determination is a s close as anyone's gotten to putting Westlake's signature character on fi lm. Followed by a \;discussion with Abby Westlake\, Donald Westlake’s wife\, author Lawrence Block\, and historian Luc Sante (Low Life)\, modera ted by guest curator Levi Stahl. \; \n\n\nTickets: $15 (Free for membe rs at the Film Lover and MoMI Kids Premium levels and above).Order tickets online.
