That's how it's advertised: "from the moment of conception to the actual birth of a baby." A sequel has already been f ilmed HELGA AND MICHAEL. That one begins with the baby's birth and carries on from there. (At the Varsity, shows at 1:00, 3:15, 5:30, 7:09 & 9:20.) THE BIG GUNDOWN-The Italian Western Of The Week, starring Mr. Ugly, Lee Van Cleef, who plays a manhunter tracking down a rapist. Variety calls it "... no better, no worse than its predecessors," but falling back "on a overage of violence and gunplay as a means to whet interest." (At the Carolina, shows at 1, 3, 5, 7&9p.m.) A THOUSAND CLOWNS-A joyous, delightful movie starring Jason Robards as a happy nonconformist and Barbara Harris as the social worker who falls in love with him. (Sunday at the Carolina, shows at 12:45, 2:47, 4:49, 6:51 & 8:53 p.m.) PHAEDRA Melinda Mercouri and Anthony Perkins 4 JASON ROBARDS DURHAM 2001: A Space Odyssey-If you can possibly get to Greensboro, see it there in 70mm and wide screen; the Rialto should only be a last resort. It's a tremendous visual experience, ingeniously created, by Stanley Kubrick, and a feast for the eyes and the intellect. But why the Rialto, with its tiny, tiny screen? (At the Rialto, shows at 1:00, 4:00 & 8:30 p.m.) THE BOSTON STRANG LER-An excellent film version of Gerold Frank's are the unlikely lovers in this best seller. Tony Curtis can act, Sidney Poitier Prize -Winners Headline Weekend Free Flicks Two recent features starring Sidney Poitier will be shown this weekend at the Carolina Union Free Flicks. Lorraine Hansbury's A RAISIN IN THE SUN and the Oscar-winning LILIES OF THE FIELD are the Friday and Saturday night features to be shown at 7, 9:30 and 11:30 both nights. A RAISIN IN THE SUN is admittedly Poitier' s favorite film. The story of a Chicago South Side family, with its ' s dreams, amibitions and frustrations is told with compassion, warmth and humor. Poitier calls it "a true picture of ghetto frustration." The impact of an expected insurance bequest which each family member sees as the means of realizing long-nurtured dreams and escape from grinding routine, provides an eloquent film portrait that is sensitively and superbly portrayed by the stars of the original stage play. Claudia McNeil and Ruby Dee co-star as Poitier' s mother and sister. On Saturday night, the free flick will be LILLIES OF THE FIELD, for which Sidney Poitier won his Oscar as Best Actor of 1963. He also won the Best Actor Award at the Berlin Film Festival in that year. Footloose and fancy free, travelling to nowhere in particular in his jalopy station wagon, ex-G.I. Homer Smith encounters five strangely dressed women attempting to farm some barren Arizona acreage. He accepts a day's work and learns that they are boy raise a monument to faith in this southwestern desert.. In the last several years, Poitier has skyrocketed to the heights in U.S. popularity. Last year, he had three hits in release at one time (TO SIR, WITH LOVE; GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER; IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT). Jules Dassin production of Racine's classic. (Monday at the Carolina, shows at 1, 3, 5, 7 & 9 p.m.) LORD OF THE FLIES-An excellent film version of William Golding's horror novel. British children all non-actors portray the little savages, and the entire treatment is interesting. (Tuesday at the Carolina, shows at 1:15, 3:15, 5:10, 7:10 & 9:10 p.m.) THE WRONG BOX-A British comedy based on Robert Loiys Stevenson's story of an inheritance, subsequently fought over by Michael Caine and a host of funny for a change, and the direction is imaginative and interesting. It nry sags a little in the middle, when it veers off the path to give a spot check on "your friendly neighborhood deviates." (At the Center, shows at 1, 3, 5, 7 & 9 p.m.) IF HE HOLLERS, LET HIM GO-This is the film with Barbara McNair's nude scene with Raymond St. Jacques (spotlighted in last month's Playboy). Variety notes "uneven" performances in a "cluttered script... . . . overloaded with racial bigotry, violence and gunplay angles,'' though the performances by St. Jacques and McXair are the best. (At the Carolina, shows at 1:19, 3:16, 5:13, 7:10 & 9:11.) RALEIGH RACHEL, RACHEL-A repeat engagement in Raleigh for this sensitive film, directed by Paul Newman and starring his magnificent wife Joanne Woodward. The entire script and performances have a true-life ring, and a viewing is well worthwhile. (At the State, shows at 2:04, 3:50, 5:35, 7:25 & 9:13.) THE PRODUCERS-Zero Mostel and Dick Shawn star in this wild comedy about writers and producers in the theatrical world. Mostel is about to present a musical called "Springtime for Hitler," so take it from there. Critically well-received. (At the Village, shows at 1:25, 3:25, 5:25, 7:25 & 9:30.) BONNIE AND CLYDE-Pauline Kael called this "the most excitingly American movie since The Manchurian Candidate." (At the Varsity, shows at 3, 5, 7 & 9 p.m.) THE BOSTON STRANGLER (At the Cardinal, shows at 2:00, 4:15, 6:30 & 8:50 p.m.) IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT-The Best Film of 1967, if Oscar is your guide. Rod Steiger gives a sensational performance as a bigoted Southern sheriff, and Sidney Poitier supports him ably. If nothing else, it's a thrilling murder mystery. (Starts Sunday at the Varsity.) GREENSBORO HAGBARD AND SIGNE A Norwegian-Icelandic Romeo and Juliet, filmed against the stark grey scenery of the Northland. (At the Cinema.) KILLERS THREE It's here! The movie that was filmed this summer in nearby These two films represent Englishmen.

It was the winner of a Tony Award in its initial season.
