Astoria's American Museum of the Moving Image has some Billy Wilder flicks on tap for September and October, including Ace In the Hole, which has so far managed to elude me every time it's played locally. Funny, I was JUST talking about this movie with someone.

ACE IN THE HOLE (A.K.A. THE BIG CARNIVAL)
Introduced By Wilder biographer Ed Sikov
1951, 111 mins. With Kirk Douglas, Jan Sterling. In this acidic portrayal of a media circus, Douglas plays a reporter who turns the attempted rescue of a mine cave-in victim into a national frenzy.
