TONIGHT Kings County Cinema Society is hosting Ball of Fire (1941, 111min) starring Brooklyn’s own Barbara Stanwyck (as sexy lounge singer Sugarpuss O’Shea) and an earnest Gary Cooper as a bookish professor in an underseen gem of a screwball comedy. Sugarpuss hides out from her mobster boyfriend with the naive prof and his seven nerdy colleagues in this romping, subversive, sorta retelling of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. From two of the screen’s greatest: co-written by Billy Wilder and directed by Howard Hawks.
