Sally Benson’s Typical Vibe
2 films — measured, dark, intense, layered, uneasy
In sleepy Santa Rosa, restless young Charlie’s world brightens when her sophisticated Uncle Charlie arrives for a long visit. But as his behavior grows increasingly strange, she begins to suspect that her beloved uncle may be hiding a terrible secret—and that danger has quietly entered her home.
Dir. Alfred Hitchcock · With Teresa Wright, Joseph Cotten, Macdonald Carey
Lucky Jackson arrives in Las Vegas with his car literally in tow ready for the first Grand Prix — once he has the money for an engine. He gets the cash easily enough but mislays it when the pretty pool manageress takes his mind off things. It seems he'll lose both race and girl, problems complicated by rivalry from womanizing fellow racer Elmo Mancini.
Dir. George Sidney · With Elvis Presley, Ann-Margret, Cesare Danova
