Her rise and fall are charted in Hugh Munro Neely’s documentary “Clara Bow: Discovering the ‘It’ Girl,” tonight at the Hollywood Heritage Museum. Guess who narrates? Courtney Love. (hollywood heritage.org). . . . Starting Sunday, the New Beverly Cinema presents “The Greats of Roth,” a two-week festival programmed by Eli Roth, director of the horror flicks “Cabin Fever” and “Hostel.” Selections include “Torso,” “Creepshow” and “Cannibal Holocaust.” (newbevcinema.com). . . .
