ABOUT THE FILMS: 

THE JERK, 1979, Dir. Carl Reiner, 93 Min, Universal, USA 

That wild and crazy guy, Steve Martin, makes his film-starring debut in the wacky comedy hit THER JERK. Steve plays Navin Johnson, the adopted son of a poor black sharecropper family, whose crazy inventions lead him from rags to riches…right back to rags. Steve propels Navin through a string of misadventures – becoming smitten with a lady motorcycle racer, surviving a series of screwball attacks by a deranged killer, and becoming a millionaire by inventing the “Opti-grab” handle for eyeglasses -and shows why he’s one of the hottest comic performers in the world.

FORMAT: DCP

FLETCH, 1985, Dir. Michael Ritchie, 98 Min, Universal, USA

Chevy Chase is at his hilarious best as Irwin “Fletch” Fletcher, a newspaper reporter who changes his identity more often than his underwear. While working on a drug expose, he stumbles onto a scam that gets him up to his byline in murder, police corruption and forbidden romance. For this ace newsman, it’ll be the story of the year, if he can only stay alive till the deadline. Just don’t call him “Irwin”!
