ET
While visiting
the Earth at Night, a group of alien botanists is discovered and disturbed by an
approaching human task force. Because of the more than hasty take-off, one of
the visitors is left behind. The little alien finds himself all alone on a very
strange planet. Fortunately, the extra-terrestrial soon finds a friend and
emotional companion in 10-year-old Elliot, who discovered him looking for food
in his family's garden shed. While E.T. slowly gets acquainted with Elliot's
brother Michael, his sister Gertie as well as with Earth customs, members of the
task force work day and night to track down the whereabouts of Earth's first
visitor from Outer Space. The wish to go home again is strong in E.T., and after
being able to communicate with Elliot and the others, E.T. starts building an
improvised device to send a message home for his folks to come and pick him up.
But before long, E.T. gets seriously sick, and because of his special connection
to Elliot, the young boy suffers, too. The situation gets critical when the task
force finally intervenes. By then, all help may already be too late, and there's
no alien spaceship in sight.
CASABLANCA (The Criterion Collection)
During World
War II, Europeans who were fleeing from the Germans, sought refuge in America.
But to get there they would first have to go Casablanca and once they get there,
they have to obtain exit visas which are not very easy to come by. Now the
hottest spot in all of Casablanca is Rick's Cafe which is operated by Rick
Blaine, an American expatriate, who for some reason can't return there, and he
is also extremely cynical. Now it seems that two German couriers were killed and
the documents they were carrying were taken. Now one of Rick's regulars, Ugarte
entrusts to him some letters of transit, which he intends to sell but before he
does he is arrested for killing the couriers. Captain Renault, the Chief of
Police, who is neutral in his political views, informs Rick that Victor Laszlo,
the European Resistance leader, is in Casablanca and will do anything to get an
exit visa but Renault has been "told" by Major Strasser of the Gestapo, to keep
Laszlo in Casablanca. Laszlo goes to Rick's to meet Ugarte, because he was the
one Ugarte was going to sell the letters to. But since Ugarte was arrested he
has to find another way. Accompanying him is Ilsa Lund, who knew Rick when he
was in Paris, and when they meet some of Rick's old wounds reopen. It is obvious
that Rick's stone heart was because of her leaving him. And when they learn that
Rick has the letters, he refuses to give them to him, because "he doesn't stick
his neck out for anyone".

timore di perdere la vita in una missione aerea, cerca di farsi passare per
pazzo per farsi esonerare, ma non vi riesce. Mentre aspetta che la sua domanda
venga accolta, assiste impotente alle tante situazioni assurde che la guerra si
porta dietro: inutili massacri, ordini disumani e privi di logica, obbedienza
cieca, profitti economici dei guerrafondai. Esasperato e disgustato, Yossarian
decide alla fine di fuggire dalla base area nella quale presta servizio,
partendo a bordo di un canotto verso il mare aperto.
