I'm especially enthused about the days for Ann Miller and Anne Shirley, as there are a number of films airing I've not yet seen. TARNISHED ANGEL (1938) and REVEILLE WITH BEVERLY (1943) will be shown on Miller's day, and CHASING YESTERDAY (1935) and A MAN TO REMEMBER (1938) on Shirley's day also look especially interesting; for good measure TARNISHED ANGEL and A MAN TO REMEMBER both costar Lee Bowman, another personal favorite.

There are also some interesting films on I haven't seen for years, such as BACKGROUND TO DANGER (1943) with George Raft and Brenda Marshall and THE CONSPIRATORS (1944) with Paul Henreid and Hedy Lamarr. Peter Lorre is in both films.

For more information, please visit the complete August schedule.

I'll have much more detailed look at the August schedule posted here at the end of July. In the meantime, Ann Sheridan is currently the June Star of the Month, with Tony Curtis coming in July.
