FLICKS FILM AND VIDEO FILE : Kurosawa Comedy : The Ojai Film Society will show a 1958 movie depicting a royal caper set in the 16th Century.

On Saturday, the Ojai Film Society will show the Canadian movie “Strangers in Good Company” at the Ojai Playhouse.

Sound familiar?

It will be an encore presentation of last Sunday’s showing, which attracted about 200 people. The film society’s Mike Janover said no sooner had the movie ended than audience members were asking him where they could see it again. Well, here it is.

Show time is 4:30 p.m. Admission is $6. The Playhouse is at 145 E. Ojai Ave.

The film society will return to its regular schedule Sunday when it presents the 1958 Akira Kurosawa comedy-adventure film “The Hidden Fortress.”

Set in the 16th Century, it’s the story of a princess and general who try to escape to their homeland with the royal fortune, aided by two bumbling peasant farmers.

George Lucas is said to have gotten his inspiration for “Star Wars” from the Japanese director’s film.

Show time at the Playhouse is 4:30 p.m. Admission is $6.

Filmmaker Rick Howard will bring his movie “The Real World of Hawaii and Tahiti” to the Oxnard Civic Auditorium on Sunday as the “Adventure Travel Film Series” continues.

During Howard’s trip, he stopped at Oahu, Kauai, Molokai, Maui and Hawaii, visiting Pearl Harbor, coral gardens, sea caves, the erupting Kilauea volcano and the artists’ community of Kona.

He also went to the Tahitian island of Moorea and Bora Bora.

The auditorium is at 800 Hobson Way. The film will begin at 2:30 p.m. Admission is $6.50.

Call 486-2424.

The Ray D. Prueter Library’s family film night is focusing on our animal friends tonight.

The evening’s film, “Audubon Zoo,” will show viewers a swamp exhibit along the Mississippi River, the New Orleans Audubon zoo, alligators, bears, otters and Chinese pangolins. (Webster’s describes pangolins as “any of an order of toothless, scaly mammals of Asia and Africa, feeding on ants and termites. . . .” They sound adorable, don’t they?)

The movie will also show rare footage of the first rhino hornbills to successfully breed in captivity.

Show time is 6:30 p.m. Admission is free. The library is at 510 Park Ave., Port Hueneme.
