MOVIE: If you’ve never seen the original Cape Fear, starring Robert Mitchum and Gregory Peck, you owe it to yourself to head up to Silver Spring and catch Mitchum’s far-more-frightening-than-DeNiro turn as ex-con Max Cady on the big screen. At the AFI Silver Theatre, 9:30 p.m., part of the Robert Mitchum retrospective.
