The KCET Cinema Series continued Tuesday night with a screening of "Disconnect."

It's James Coburn night once again at the KCET Cinema Series! Join us for a special 40th anniversary screening of the 1973 cult classic "The Last of Sheila," featuring a post-screening Q&A with legendary co-stars Dyan Cannon and Richard Benjamin.

This star-studded 1970's murder mystery, directed by Herbert Ross with a first and only screenplay by actor Anthony Perkins and songwriter Stephen Sondheim, centers around an intricate game of murder among wealthy vacationers orchestrated after the hit-and-run death of gossip columnist Sheila Greene. One year after her death, Sheila's widower Clinton, a movie producer played by James Coburn, assembles a group of friends aboard his yacht for a week-long Mediterranean cruise. His guests, including a washed up director (James Mason), a self-absorbed agent (Dyan Cannon), a beautiful movie star (Raquel Welch), her untrustworthy husband (Ian McShane), a struggling writer (Richard Benjamin), and his heiress wife (Joan Hackett), may dislike each other, but accept the invitation in order to stay in the powerful Clinton's good graces. Once aboard, Clinton informs his obliging guests that they're required to play "The Sheila Greene Memorial Gossip Game," a game that soon turns fatal as damaging secrets begin to come to light.
