This double bill of two Harry Belafonte’s memorable movies offers a peek at his career in Hollywood in advance of the singer, actor, and activist’s in-person appearance on Friday, October 26. Belafonte stars alongside Dorothy Dandridge in Carmen Jones, Otto Preminger’s hit update of the famous Bizet opera. Despite his own fame as a vocalist, Belafonte’s singing was dubbed by an actor with a more operatic voice. (105 mins., DCP) The suspenseful film noir Odds Against Tomorrow finds Belafonte as a gambling addict paired with a racist ex-con (Robert Ryan) for a daring bank heist. Robert Wise’s crime story also exposes the pernicious impact of racism (95 mins., 35mm) Odds Against Tomorrow begins at 9 PM.
