1. RIO BRAVO (141 minutes) PG

Howard Hawks' splendid 1959 Western is the defining example of what Quentin Tarantino calls a hangout movie, where the plot is essentially an excuse to spend time with the characters. Sheriff John Wayne, town drunk Dean Martin and showgirl Angie Dickinson are among the independent-minded heroes who join forces to fend off a band of killers. Digitally projected.Astor, tomorrow, 7pm. Double bill with The Quiet Man.
