A good month for horror films, Godzilla movies and B Westerns, if you like those kinds of things. I do recommend the horror films of director Terence Fisher and producer Val Lewton.
On the 1st is Preson Sturges's The Lady Eve (1941), which I wrote about earlier this month.
The 2nd has Hitchcock's The Thirty-Nine Steps (1933), one of his best British films.
On the 5th is Joseph Losey's version of M (1951).
October 6 is Mark Sandrich's Shall We Dance (1937), my favorite Rogers and Astaire film.
October 7 is Howard Hawks's Scarface (1932)
Oct. 10 has Budd Boetticher's austerely beautiful Western Ride Lonesome(1959)
On Oct. 12 has Vincente Minnelli's Father of the Bride (1950) and Fritz Lang's Clash by Night (1952)
Oct 13 has Anonioni's L'Avenntura (1960)
On the 16th is Edgar Ulmer's corrosive Detour (1945)
On the 17th is Mitch Leisen's Easy Living (1937), script by Preston Sturges
The 23rd has Don Weis's quite funny The Affairs of Dobie Gillis (1953).
