The Aero Theatre will feature a double feature of gritty heist flicks this Saturday.
“The Killing,” Stanley Kubrick’s hard-boiled saga about a racetrack robbery features some of the day’s best and brightest. Coleen Gray and Sterling Hayden lead a standout cast.
John Huston’s “The Asphalt Jungle” is a neo-realist adaptation of a W.R. Burnett’s novel. Marilyn Monroe gets a turn in the film.
The double bill begins Saturday at 7:30 p.m. The Aero Theatre is located at 1328 Montana Avenue.
