What’s Available NOW On
“Movie: School Daze”
Students navigate life at a historically
Black college in this 1988 musical
comedy, one of Spike Lee’s early efforts.
The subject matter is often serious
— such as the positions of light-
skinned versus darker-skinned African-
Americans in the social order — but
the clever writing and frequent musical
numbers keep the film from becoming
too preachy. Laurence Fishburne —
going by Larry then — heads the cast.
“Movie: Only Lovers Left Alive”
From director and co-writer Jim
Jarmusch (“The Dead Don’t Die,”
“Mystery Train”) comes this enjoyable
2013 comedy drama about two
centuries-old vampire lovers (Tom
Hiddleston, Tilda Swinton) with
highbrow attitudes and tastes, who are
forced to consider their place in a 21st
century world full of philistines. Anton
Yelchin, Mia Wasikowska, John Hurt
and Jeffrey Wright are also in the fine
cast.
“Movie: On the Waterfront”
Marlon Brando became a contender
in his own right as a longshoreman
battling a ruthless racketeer in Elia
Kazan’s searing 1954 melodrama of
political corruption and personal
heroism. Filmed in Hoboken, N.J.,
this landmark film won eight Academy
Awards, including best picture and best
supporting actress (Eva Marie Saint), as
well as Oscars for Brando and Kazan.
Karl Malden and Rod Steiger co-star.

“Movie: Val”
Fans of Val Kilmer will get an up-close-
and-personal look at the mercurial
“The Doors” and “Batman Forever”
actor in this documentary from first-
time directors Leo Scott and Ting Poo,
which uses home movies, on-set clips
and footage shot by Kilmer himself to
chronicle a life lived to extremes and
reveal what it means to be an artist and
a complex man. (ORIGINAL)
