DESCRIPTION:Dir. Stephen Frears. 1990. 110 mins. 35mm. With John Cusack\, A
 njelica Huston\, Annette Bening. When Stephen Frears first approached Dona
 ld Westlake about adapting Jim Thompson's noir classic\, he was turned dow
 n. 'The book's too gloomy\,' Westlake said. Frears changed his mind by arg
 uing that the movie belongs not to John Cusack's Roy\, but to his mother\,
  Lily\, played by Anjelica Huston—which makes it a story of survival at al
 l costs. A key decision was to update the setting rather than make a perio
 d piece. 'There's no problem with updating Thompson\, because his people o
 nly live in a very narrow world\, with each other\,” Westlake said. 'To up
 date it\, all you have to do is take their hats off.' It was nominated for
  four Oscars\, including for Westlake's screenplay. \n\n\nTickets: $15 (Fr
