Rare Eurospy Screening in Los Angeles Tonight

The New Beverly Cinema in Los Angeles will screen the 1966 Mike Connors Eurospy movie Kiss the Girls and Make Them Die tonight at midnight (the evening of Saturday, August 4). Dorothy Provine and Italian Job baddie Raf Vallone co-star, but it's Terry-Thomas who steals the show as a Q-like chauffeur with an impossibly tricked-out Rolls Royce. This is one of several Eurospy movies that New Beverly owner Quentin Tarantino has called his favorite (perhaps this is his personal print), and with good reason. It's got a noticeably bigger budget than most, making it a great entry-level Eurospy flick for fans weened on Bond spectaculars. If you're in the area, definitely check it out!

I hate California sometimes. For all the revival houses NY has, Cali screens films like this moreso than NY.

Sorry, Delmo. But that is the main reason I like living here!

This used to play constantly on TV; now it's hard to find. Off-topic, Mannnix episodes are running on Cloo in pristine condition.

Maybe this airing will lead to a decent dvd release.
