On the afternoon of Aug. 19, Carl Drega, a loner with a murderous grudge and an AR-15 assault rifle, gunned down New Hampshire state troopers Scott Phillips and Les Lord, stole Phillips' police cruiser, then drove to the newspaper building at 1 Bridge Street, where he shot and killed Vickie Bunnell, an attorney and part-time...

...there's some life in the films, especially the early ones. They still play briskly; Home of the Brave, The Men, High Noon, The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T. and The Wild One all run under 90 minutes. And Kramer had a knack for finding sharp writers (Carl Foreman, John Paxton, Ted ["Dr. Seuss"] Geisel) and fresh actors; Marlon Brando (The Men) and Grace Kelly (High Noon) made their first strong movie impressions in his films...
