Phil – I love when you are able to find a quality film with an Oscar-nominated performance in the public domain to screen for Saturday Cinema. My favorite of all time is ‘Smash-Up: Story of a Woman’ (Stuart Heisler, 1947). If you liked Sinatra shooting up to a jazz score, you’ll love Susan Hayward’s big-band boozing. It would be an especially good fit for SC since you sometimes take a couple of pops yourself during the movie…as do I.
Again with the gum, Phil.
