Dr. Somnambula Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 So ... On Sunday, I watched the Indy 500. Then, some Murder, She Wrote marathon. Then the Memorial Day celebration on PBS. Just sayin'. I completely agree with Sepiatone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpirose Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I do not understand why TCM has never shown YANK IN THE RAF 1941 FROM FOX with Ty Power and Betty Grable. It is a film about the time just before we entered WW2. It has levity, but it was giving a chance to view European and the the Asian theaters a chance for American audiences to see that there is a crisis in the war in Europe. Thus we should keep our eyes open, which the countries such as France. Poland Belgium were conquered by the Nazis. Here is the trailer for the . film. ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxTYasgU5XM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vautrin Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Not enough blood, too many guts. I saw A Yank in the RAF a few weeks ago on YT. Entertaining, but pretty cornball. This YT upload silenced all Betty's songs, so I guess there were some copyright issues even after all these years. Or maybe the uploader just thought there were.

THREE STRIPES IN THE SUN is one TCM should air.
