In the hands of lesser talents, this could have been the story of a buffoon, but Paul Hogan and director Peter Faiman have created a thinking, feeling, totally believable hero in a film loaded with adventure, humor and romance which works like a charm. Paramount Pictures has the sequel rights and once youve seen Crocodile Dundee, youll join us in eagerly awaiting that sequel. Crocodile Dundee is fun and thats what going to the movies is all about. Another recently released movie is New World Pictures Shadow rowdy adventurer and crocodile hunter who became a local hero after being attacked by a croc and crawling through the Australian outback for a week to reach safety. Naturally, the story grows with each telling.

The way her husband dies still haunts her and is now causing a writers block which she feels may go away if she returns to the place where Jeremys demise (he took a brodie off the lighthouse tower) happened. No sooner does she get there and move in with Jeremys mother and brother (Cloris Leachman) John than she starts seeing visions of Jeremy everywhere. Shadow Play is the type of film which can divide critics. Per Kelli: Eventhough it drags a bit in places, I found it to be a real spine chiller that gives the audience goose bumps. However, Mark feels, It should have been 30 minutes shorter to keep the tense pace and the obviousness of the direction gave the whole ending away in the first half hour. made-for-vide- So, there you have it, one cheer and one jeerfor Shadow Play." Among some of the more notable films currently in production: Skip Tracer1 starring Michael Keaton; The Arm, toplining Matt Dillion, Tommy Lee Jones and Bruce Dern; the Police Academy gang is shooting Police Academy IV"; while Sally Field, Michael Caine and Jackie for the Cooper lens Surrender Cannon Group. Speaking of Jackie Cooper, hell be joining Christopher Reeve, Margot Kidder and Gene Hackman in Superman IV also for Cannon. On the video beat, its been an exk period with the plosive release of Wild Cats," starring Goldie Hawn as the coach of a football team at a ghetto high school. Its Goldies funniest film since Private Benjamin. Runaway Train which got star Jon Voight an Oscar nomination for his portrayal of an escaped convict without any morals trapped on a train that cant be stopped. Voight is excellent and in our opinion whould have won the Oscar. Pretty in Pink from John Hughes who created The Breakfast Club and Ferris Buellers Day Off, again starring Molly Ringwald in a terrific story of the haves and have nots. We suggest adults see this one too. Any John Hughes film is a feast. Revenge, the story of a small town caught in the grip of the blood cult which is run by some of the towns most prominent citizens. Starring Patrick Wayne and John American Anthem," starring Olympic gold medalist Mitch Gaylord and Janet Jones in a story Exof competitive gymnastics. cellently directed by Albert Magnoli (Purple Rain"), its got romance and a great rock score. Other videos released this week include Down and Out in Beverly Hills and 8 Million Ways to Die." Nostalgia fans (those who can enjoy a good film eventhough its in black and white) can sit back and enjoy OH Limits, starring Bob Hope, Mickey Rooney and Marilyn Maxwell. Hope plays a boxing manager railroaded into the army after his fighter becomes the champ and the mob takes over. Determined to get even, he starts training Mickey Rooney to fight the champ and during the course of it all, gives the army more problems than any enemy could. Its a funny film with Hope in rare form. From Kartes Video Communications.
