Simon (1980) -- (Movie Clip) Epstein, Rats And Chickens Austin Pendleton as Becker leads the team at the comical “Institute For Advanced Concepts” in flattering professor Alan Arkin (title character) into believing he’s being brought on as a colleague, rather than a test subject, introducing Madeline Kahn as Dr. Mallory with a powerful pitch, in writer-director Marshall Brickman’s Simon, 1980.

Simon (1980) -- (Movie Clip) Did You Get The Fluids? Madeline Kahn as scheming Dr. Malllory, with her colleagues at the unglued “Institute For Advanced Concepts” (William Finley, Austin Pendleton, and Wallace Shawn as Eric Van Dongen) confirms she’s collected bodily fluids from Alan Arkin, the unwitting title character, the professor they’re planning to brainwash, who believes he’s conducting his own research, with a sensory deprivation tank, in Marshall Brickman’s Simon, 1980.

Simon (1980) -- (Movie Clip) Institute For Advanced Concepts Opening narration by James Dukas harkens Sleeper, 1973, which writer-director Marshall Brickman wrote with Woody Allen, and introduces Max Wright as Hundertwasser, Wallace Shawn as Van Dongen, Jayant as Barundi, William Finley as Fichlander and Austin Pendleton as the boss Becker, in Simon, 1980, starring Alan Arkin.

Simon (1980) -- (Movie Clip) Dare To Dream! At the unbridled “Institute For Advanced Concepts,” boss Becker (Austin Pendleton) introduces an idea, picked up by Hundertwasser (Max Wright), with help from Wallace Shawn, and Doris the computer (voice of Louise Lasser!), introducing Alan Arkin as the title character professor, director Marshall Brickman shooting on location at Columbia, in Simon, 1980.

Sisters (1973) -- (Movie Clip) A Man Is Bleeding To Death! Director Brian De Palma switches on the crazy, as we’ve seen Margot Kidder, whom we thought was unconscious but who maybe has a twin sister, stab lover Philip (Lisle Wilson), and he’s seen groping to the window by neighbor Grace (Jennifer Salt), prompting the split screen and the return of the spooky ex-husband, in Sisters, 1973.
