...career with MIT literature and film professor Paul Thorburn. Prior to the discussion, the Brattle will screen Willis’ favorite film from his career. What might it be? All the President’s Men? Annie Hall? Nope, it’ll be a new 35mm print of Klute, a forgotten 1971 Jane Fonda-Donald Sutherland crime thriller that won Fonda an Oscar for her role as a hooker.

...weird or failed show-biz types (Ed Wood, Larry Flynt, Andy Kaufman, Bob Crane). But Clooney turns out to have a flair, puckish and audacious, for his new job. Learning from working with Steven Soderbergh and the Coen brothers and from watching the '70s thrillers of Alan J.

Pakula (Klute, Presumed Innocent) develops his story patiently, without letting its tensions unravel.

Pakula, who has proved his ability to turn paranoid suspicions into scary reality (Klute, All the President's Men), gives his movie the dark glow we have come to expect from this genre. But we don't go to movies like this in search of stylish apercus. We go to see innocents like ourselves getting swept up by irresistible tides of terror. And to have the pants scared off us. That doesn't happen in The Pelican Brief. An airplane read has been turned into nothing more compelling than an airplane...
