Next up in our Billy Wilder series is BALL OF FIRE (1941), screening this Saturday & Sunday at 11:30 AM on 35mm! “Maybe I'm just crazy, but to me, you're a regular yum-yum type.” This romantic comedy from director Howard Hawks was co-written by Billy Wilder and Charles Brackett who based the screenplay (loosely) on the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. Starring Barbara Stanwyck as a sassy nightclub dancer and Gary Cooper as a professor who hopes she can help him and his cohort gather intel for the American slang section of their encyclopedia. Boy can she!
