Oh Turner Classic Movies! As if I needed another reason to love you. The schedule for their annual Summer Under the Stars month, in which an actor is featured each day in August, had been posted and the 9th is all about Ann Dvorak. That’s right, there is actually going to be 24 hours of Ann Dvorak films being broadcast.\u00c2\u00a0 The last time I remember TCM giving so much love to Ann was back in the fall of 1997, and even then it was maybe six or seven movies that were shown. This time around, they will be airing sixteen <\/em>of Ann’s films.<\/p>\n

There will be some old friends, like Scarface<\/em><\/a>, Three on a Match<\/a>, <\/em>and G Men<\/em><\/a>, along with seldom aired Warner Archive<\/a> titles like Side Streets<\/a>, Stranger in Town<\/a>, <\/em>and I Was an American Spy<\/em><\/a>. I am especially excited for a few films that are neither available on DVD, nor recently shown, including Sweet Music<\/a>, Massacre<\/a>, Gentlemen Are Born<\/a>, <\/em>and Friends of Mr. Sweeney<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

This will come one week after what would have been Ann’s 100th birthday, and I cannot think of a more appropriate tribute to her. As the day gets closer, I will post more in depth info about the films being shown. In the meantime, the full schedule for the entire month can be found here.<\/a><\/p>\n
