KLVX film series starts Friday with 'Charade'

REVIEW-JOURNAL

The stars return to KLVX-TV, Channel 10 at 9 p.m. Fridays when the "KLVX Movie Club" convenes, featuring commercial-free movie classics.

Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn lead off the PBS affiliate's series Friday with the 1963 suspense romp "Charade," featuring Walter Matthau, James Coburn and George Kennedy -- and the city of Paris.

Paris also figures in the July 14 feature, the 1954 drama "The Last Time I Saw Paris," with Elizabeth Taylor, Van Johnson, Donna Reed and Walter Pidgeon.

Rounding out the July schedule: the 1971 version of Charlotte Bronte's classic "Jane Eyre," with Susannah York as the title character and George C. Scott as the mysterious Mr. Rochester, on July 21; and the 1941 tearjerker "Penny Serenade," with Cary Grant and Irene Dunne as a couple desperately trying to adopt a baby, on July 28.

The August schedule kicks off Aug. 4 at 9:30 p.m. with the classic 1947 comedy "Life With Father," about an eccentric but endearing patriarch (William Powell) in turn-of-the-century New York City. Irene Dunne, Elizabeth Taylor, Edmund Gwenn, ZaSu Pitts and Jimmy Lydon round out the starring cast.

The series returns to a 9 p.m. start time Aug. 11 with another Powell classic: the 1936 screwball comedy "My Man Godfrey," with Powell as a Depression-era tramp who's hired as a butler by a rich (but crazy) family. Carole Lombard co-stars.

Also scheduled in August: the classic 1949 thriller "The Third Man," with a pulp novelist (Joseph Cotten) trailing the mysterious title character, Harry Lime (Orson Welles), in post-World War II Vienna, Aug. 18; and, on Aug. 25, the original 1937 version of "A Star Is Born," with Janet Gaynor as a young actress on the rise who marries a self-destructive actor (Fredric March) on the way down.

Elaine Garrison, a former television anchor and Ms. Senior Nevada, will host. More information is available at www.klvx.org.
