Movies for the Day, Monday, April 6, 2020

Today's movies mark anniversaries of the Tonys, the Olympics, and the Bosnian war.

Which of today's movies would you watch?








Twentieth Century (1934) is an excellent
screwball comedy about a producer who tries
to win back a diva and a long train trip.
It stars John Barrymore, born February 15,
1882.  This movie is about Broadway- the
first Tony awards were April 6, 1947.




Twentieth Century











Wee Geordie (1956) is about
a Scottish hammer thrower who goes
to the Olympics.  Gags and romance
ensue.  The first modern Olympics
began April 6, 1896.  A very good
movie.

Pretty Village, Pretty Flame (1996)
is a movie about the Bosnian war and
its personal effects.  It is grim and an
anti-war movie.  The war lasted from
April 6, 1992, to December 14, 1995.
It occurred in former Yugoslavia.
