Nothing particularly unusual or rare this month, just a solid line-up of (mostly) classical movies:1961) il buono, il brutto, il cattivo.
April 6 has two superb film noirs, Nicholas Ray's In a Lonely Place (1950) and Phil Karlson's corrosive 99 River Street (1953).
April 8 has one of Hitchcock's best English films, The Lady Vanishes (1935) and my favorite Astaire/Rogers film, Mark Sandrich's Shall We Dance (1937).
April 11 has some excellent Westerns: John Ford's The Searchers (1956), Budd Boetticher's Ride Lonesome (1959), Anthony Mann's The Man from Laramie (1955) and Delemer Daves's 3:10 to Yuma (1957).
April 12 has Blake Edwards's marvelous wide-screen comedy The Party (1968)
April 18 has Edgar Ulmer's great film noir Detour (1945) and Carl Dreyer's austerely beautiful Day of Wrath (1943).
On April 28th there are two late masterpieces by Yasujiro Ozu, An Autumn Afternoon (1962) and The End of Summer (1961)
