The Killer & Charley Varrick

TICKETS
SYNOPSIS
Before Walter Matthau was Oscar Madison, he was Charley Varrick. Varrick is a crop-duster in the Southwest, but his true profession is bank robber, known as ‘The Last of the Independents'—a moniker that could be applied to Michael Fassbender in The Killer. As could ‘Oscar Madison’...

THE KILLER (1h 58m)
Dir. David Fincher
Starring Michael Fassbender, Tilda Swinton, Charles Parnell
After a fateful near-miss an assassin battles his employers, and himself, on an international manhunt he insists isn't personal.

BASED ON THE GRAPHIC NOVEL SERIES: The Killer by Alexis Nolent (a.k.a Matz) and illustrated by Luc Jacamon, originally published in the French language by Editions Casterman.

CHARLEY VARRICK (1h 51m)
Dir. Don Siegel
Starring Walter Matthau. Joe Don Baker, Felicia Farr
When small-time criminal Charley Varrick (Walter Matthau) leads a crew to rob a bank, things don't exactly go according to plan. Not only are there casualties, but also, he and his surviving cohort, Harman Sullivan (Andy Robinson), discover that they've snagged far more cash than they were expecting --and it's money that belongs to the mob. Hunted by both the police and a ruthless killer named Molly (Joe Don Baker), Charley and Harman may not live long enough to enjoy their small fortune.
