Siskel on John Waters’ POLYESTER…

John Waters’ POLYESTER made its way to Chicago on September 11, 1981. Siskel liked the Odorama gimmick, writing “ I enjoyed the act and the idea of a whole bunch of strangers sitting in a movie theater, scratching cards and smelling in unison with a movie character.”

Siskel on MOMMIE DEAREST…

MOMMIE DEAREST came to Chicago on September 25, 1981. Siskel wrote:

“I don't think you can show such extraordinary behavior in a film about a famous person and not offer some answers. It's simply not responsible
filmmaking, both intellectually and dramatically.”

I like collecting original 27x41 posters because they fold for easy storage and I can swap them out each month.

"So Rick, who's gonna kick the shit out of you next week? Mannix? The Man from U.N.C.L.E.? The Girl from U.N.C.L.E.? How about Batman and Robin?"
