Panic, written and directed by Henry Bromel, is a black-comedy gem about a middle-class husband and father (William H. Macy) who seeks the help of a shrink (John Ritter) when he decides he wants out of the family business. His father (Donald Sutherland) and mother (Barbara Bain) are killers for hire. At the Sundance Film Festival last year, Panic drew raves for the actors, including Neve Campbell as a twenty-something who gets between Macy's character and his wife (Tracey Ullman, cast deftly against type), and for Bromel's acutely funny vision, but you'd need a detective to find a theater where it's playing since the rights were quickly sold to Showtime.

“Tonight's the Night”

The lead cut and title track from this girl group's debut album, "Tonight's the Night" was written by 19-year-old bandmember Shirley Owens, who sings lead, and producer Luther Dixon. The band from Passaic, New Jersey met in high school, first calling themselves the Pequellos. The song's frank thoughts about sexual and emotional surrender was racy for the time, but that didn't stop the Chiffons from cutting a similar version immediately after the original came out. "We were the first female group to write some of our own material," band member Beverly Lee recalls. "We did have some say-so in our writing."
