Film/Performance SUMMER MOVIES AND MUSIC THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH/BLOOD MAGNET MONDAY, AUGUST 23, 1999, MUSIC BEGINS AT 7 PM, MOVIES BEGIN AT DUSK FREE LORING PARK

		BLOOD MAGNET WITH OPENING PERFORMANCE BY FRED HO The potent mingling of four ensemble leaders--Anthony Cox, Dave King, William Michaels, and Michael Lewis--Blood Magnet draws from jazz, funk, pop, and Latin influences. Blood Magnet masters a tricky hybrid of sounds that converge somewhere between Massive Attack and the Latin Playboys. A spoken-word/saxophone performance by composer-writer-activist (and current Walker artist-in-residence) Fred Ho opens.
		THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH Billy Wilder captures the heat and tawdriness of New York City in the summer in this satirical portrait of the urban male. Tom Ewell is cast as the Manhattan Everyman, whose family has left for summer by the shore just as he experiences symptoms of the title disease brought on by the presence of his alluring upstairs neighbor, Marilyn Monroe. 1955, U.S., 105 minutes.
