Cocoanuts - 
"The service stinks but the gags are four-star in this Marx Brothers romp. Groucho owns a sketchy hotel in Florida and peddles dubious real estate to gullible Northerners seeking a home in the sun. He's after a rich society dame, who's after an eligible match for her daughter, who's in love with Jameson, the hotel clerk. Their love story provides the heart that balances the Marx Brother's wacky comedy.
Dates Possible: 13 March (Thursday) or 25 March (Tuesday)

The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window
"Greenwich Village, New York, 1964. A neighborhood brimming with artists, activists, and ex-communists.  Sidney Brustein is a Jewish intellectual who has grown so weary of the world's corruption that he's lost the will to fight anyone except his beleaguered wife, Iris. But when a friend lures him into a local political battle, and Iris begins to yearn for a different life, Sidney is forced to decide what's worth fighting for.
