Dundee Marquee: Charade
Part of the Dundee Marquee series at Film Streams' Dundee Theater, Stanley Donen’s 1963 thriller Charade features Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant in a twisty tale of danger and deception. The film unveils a vibrant, geometry inspired title sequence and an early set piece at Mont d’Arbois in Megève, Switzerland. Hepburn appears in elegant Givenchy creations, and a gripping rooftop clash pairs Grant against George Kennedy, whose character wields a steel claw. The story follows Regina, played by Hepburn, after the murder of her estranged husband.

His identity and motives remain unclear, leaving Regina to navigate shifting alliances as the stakes rise.

The MaxWorld Series of Magnum
Magnum Wrestling brings a high-stakes night at the German-American Society as six tag teams clash in a single night, win-and-advance tournament to decide the next number one contenders to the Magnum Tag Team Titles. Every bout is do or die, there are no second chances. Brandon Nytroe, the reigning Magnum Champion, faces an uphill battle when Alvin Falcone returns for his rematch and names his own manager, Joe DeSanti, as the referee. With the official handpicked by the challenger, the champion must navigate a tilted playing field. The Young Gunz meet Royal Flavuh one final time without the usual champion’s advantage, a stipulation set by Authority Figure Duke Cornell. If the champions are counted out or disqualified, they will lose the titles, so there is no safe exit. A new chapter begins in the Hellcat division as Ashlyn Alexander, fresh off a decisive win over Sadie Belle, launches a fierce reign. The question is who can slow her momentum. Expect more surprises throughout the card as the results here set the tone for the summer and build toward Hot Magnum Nights in July.
