There are a number of entertaining titles here. The first three films on April 13th, costarring Robert Mitchum (HIS KIND OF WOMAN and MACAO) and Victor Mature (THE LAS VEGAS STORY) are very enjoyable, and when I saw GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES at the 2019 TCM Classic Film Festival for the first time in years, it was wonderful to be reminded how funny it is.

I also very much like FOXFIRE, a romantic melodrama costarring Jeff Chandler.
