Very little in the way of films during that month, but they managed to provide films from several countries, and any schedule with a James Mason film cannot be all bad..... I wonder if anyone finds this interesting. I find the topic of very early TV screenings of films to be interesting, not sure if anyone else does. Monday 1 March, at 3:45PMPowódz (1947) Tuesday 2 March at 3:30PMThe Seventh Age (1947) Health for Denmark (Can't find on IMDb. May be listed on there under a different title) Thursday 11 March at 3:30PMIn Switzerland Again (can't find on IMDb) Monday 15 March at 3:30PMRough Seas (1931) Tuesday 16 March at 8:30PMThe Secret of Stamboul (1936) Wednesday 17 March at 3:00PMFighting Mad (1939) Monday 22 March at 3:45PM This is Britain (note: this was a series of short films which were produced from 1946 to 1951) Wednesday 24 March 1948 at 3:30PMWinter In Czechoslovakia The Angel's Robe (note: these are from former Czechoslovakia. They are probably listed on IMDb under their original titles). Thursday 25 March at 8:30PMCoastal Command (1943) Tuesday 30 March at 3:00PMCrashing Thru (1939) |

How about Health for Denmark? (note: The Seventh Age was SUPPOSED to be linked to on IMDb, but the link isn't working. It is the other film, "Health for Denmark", that I can't find on there) |

For some reason the links to IMDb are not working. I'll try to fix this.

Now I've got the IMDb links working. I'm curious as to why they didn't work originally.

Health for Denmark, yes, I found this site instead, www.dfi.dk/faktaomfilm/film/en/29864.aspx?id=29864 , that seams to be the one you wondered about. |
