Movies for the Day, Saturday, June 27, 2020

Today's movies mark the birthday of Joe Ortan, a wedding, and the birthday of Norman Lear.

Which of today's movies would you watch?









Prick Up Your Ears (1987) is about a
British playwright, Joe Ortan, murdered in
1967 by his homosexual lover.  An unflinching
look at LGBT life in the 1950s and 1960s in
England.  June is LGBT month.

The Wedding Gift (1993) is about a wife
with a mysterious and debilitating disease who
want to find a new wife for husband before

June is a traditional wedding month.
