MUSIC BOX (1989) Monday 18 July 9.00-11.30pm Talking Pictures (Channel 82)
HEAR MY SONG (1991) Monday 18 July 11.45pm-1.55am Film Four            
Welcome to a Film Society Week in miniature: two of our early successes are making relatively rare appearances on Freeview!
Music Box has Jessica Lange defending her father, accused of being a war criminal, in court. Directed by Costa-Gavras, a master of the political thriller, members gave it 83% in our 1991-92 season. Hear My Song opened our 1992-93 season and earned an impressive 89%. Ned Beatty turns in a fine performance as tenor Josef Locke.
BETTE DAVIS
Ms Davis was the Meryl Streep of her day, earning 11 Oscar nominations and twice winning the coveted statuette. BBC 2 is showing two of her classics (Dark Victory and Now, Voyager) Saturday afternoon and repeated Thursday evening. The latter performances are preceded by a rare broadcast of the 1983 documentary Bette Davis: the Benevolent Volcano at 8pm.
