THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN ARM (1955)—One of Frank Sinatra’s best performances was in Otto Preminger’s adaptation of Nelson Algren’s novel about a man’s slide into heroin addiction. Preminger removed Algren’s social conscience and leftist politics, retaining only the sensationalism. Still worth seeing for the performances by Sinatra, Eleanor Parker and Kim Novak. Sat 7. The Screening Room

SUDDENLY (1954)—Taut crime thriller starring Frank Sinatra as an assassin holding the occupants of an apartment hostage as part of a plan to kill the president.
