Heaven Can Wait, Ernst Lubitsch's only completed Technicolor film, screens February 26 at 7 p.m. in the Thursday night Americanarama! series I programmed at Doc Films. This should not be confused with the Warren Beatty film Heaven Can Wait, which is itself a remake of Here Comes Mr. Jordan, which is an adaptation of the play Heaven Can Wait, which should not be confused with the play that the Lubitsch film is based on, which is called Birthday.

Mitchell Leisen's Remember the Night, starring Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanywck, screens February 12 at 7 p.m. in the Thursday night Americanarama! series I programmed at Doc Films. It's a Christmas movie and it's supposed to be a real :'(-jerker. It was the last film that Preston Sturges wrote before turning to directing. Also, it's my half-birthday!!!

Leo McCarey's Ruggles of Red Gap, starring Charles Laughton, screens February 5 at 7 p.m. in the Thursday night Americanarama! series I programmed at Doc Films. This should be a real sweet treat. It's only available on DVD in France.
