Travel the country at Cambridge’s cinemas

This weekend, local moviegoers can see the sights of two of America’s great cities without leaving the (equally great) city of Cambridge. From Friday through Monday, the Harvard Film Archive presents a lovingly curated series titled Visions of a City, or A Weekend in San Francisco . With its steep hills and iconic streetcars (to say nothing of its rich cultural history), San Francisco is a uniquely cinematic town, and the films selected by the HFA make for a rich guided tour. The series begins Friday with a pair of thrillers: “Bullitt” (1968), featuring Steve McQueen and some of the greatest car chases committed to film, and Francis Ford Coppola’s “The Conversation” (1974), which finds Gene Hackman at the height of Nixon-era paranoia. Saturday brings us into even more emotionally fraught territory with the classic psychodramas “Sudden Fear” (1952) and “Experiment in Terror” (1962), as well as Philip Kaufman’s remake of “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” (1978), which transposes the original’s Cold War panic into a story about aging hipsters battling square conformity. Sunday is for film noir, with Delmer Daves’ “Dark Passage” (1957) and Don Siegel’s “The Lineup” (1958). The series ends on Monday, as it must, with arguably the most famous San Francisco film of all: Alfred Hitchcock’s “Vertigo” (1958), which combines the eeriness of all the preceding films into one endlessly beguiling package.

The 13-acre Scanlon Drive property that once hosted generations of Randolph weddings, proms and community Thanksgiving dinners could soon become something entirely different: a 171,000-square-foot, 200-room hotel paired with a 65,000-square-foot events building featuring an 11,000-square-foot ballroom and a 400-seat dinner theater. Core Investments and A Yankee Line Inc. have filed a preliminary notification form laying out the vision, which would also connect the hotel and events building with a pedestrian bridge.

Crazy Steak coming to former Tutto Italiano spot in Lakeville

A new sign outside a familiar Route 44 storefront in Lakeville has raised a couple of questions. What's opening there, and what exactly is it called? A commenter in a private Facebook group recently reported seeing a sign for Simply Steak at the former Tutto Italiano location in Lakeville Business Center, wondering whether a restaurant or butcher shop was moving in. But a photograph taken for The Enterprise on Tuesday, Nov. 3, revealed something else. The sign actually reads Crazy Steak, with the tagline "Seriously Fresh." And as it turns out, the man behind the business has a different take on how steak should be served. Tim Malinosky, a longtime restaurant operator who also runs the wedding venue Loon Pond Lodge in Lakeville, is preparing to open the new eatery at 12 Harding St. What businesses previously occupied the space? The storefront has seen several businesses come and go, including Tutto Italiano, the Italian deli and specialty food shop longtime residents may remember. In March 1996, The Standard-Times reported that Lakeville resident Paul Grasso was preparing to open the deli at the former Jamesway Plaza on Route 44. Grasso had spent more than a year learning the business from Angelo
