8:30 a.m. Eastern-- "Berlin Express" Merle Oberon, Robert Ryan, Paul Lukas, Charles Korvin
Diverse group of train passengers, American, French, etc. in post-war Germany, unite and risk great danger to find a statesman kidnapped by resurgent Nazis. Merle Oberon is the assistant to the statesman who galvanizes the others. Directed by Jacques Tourneur ("Out of the Past") in a vivid, almost documentary style on location in recently war-despoiled Frankfurt and Berlin. Exciting, idealistic and with twists!
Noon Eastern-- The often-aired "Born to be Bad" Joan Fontaine, Robert Ryan, Zachary Scott. Beautiful, devious Joan steals Zachary Scott away from his fiancee, and keeps Robert Ryan on the hook as well, as she mounts her assault on high society. Big favorite among Q film fans and others!
3:30 p.m. Eastern "Bad Day at Black Rock" Spencer Tracy, Robert Ryan, Anne Francis, Lee Marvin, Dean Jagger
Intense drama in which man of integrity (Tracy) comes to town to award posthumous medal to Japanese-American family of a dead war hero. He encounters a town where the evil intent of some residents is almost palpable. Fabulous performances from Tracy and Ryan.
10:15 p.m. Eastern "The End of the Affair" Deborah Kerr, Van Johnson, Peter Cushing, John Mills
Illicit involvement in London in wartime and after, of Deborah Kerr and Van Johnson. Peter Cushing is the deceived husband. Critically acclaimed examination of conscience, based on a Graham Greene novel, and infused by his deeply Catholic sensibility.

The nuances and undercurrents in this scene in "The End of the Affair", between Deborah Kerr and Van Johnson, are so richly complex, and zowie, that last line of hers about trust! I defy anyone to watch without wanting to see the whole movie:

Setting the highly atmospheric train scene in "Berlin Express":

Kerr is so very very cool and understated. She almost
throws away that critical line. Her excellent acting makes you really listen and pay very close attention.
Van Johnson’s yearning is palpable,he is so fine here.
A great movie.

Yes, this scene with Duplicitous Deborah ensnared me -- you are so right, oznell. Not having seen this movie before, I think I have it right. But who knows (shrug).
Brilliant directorial move, having Kerr look at her REFLECTION as she utters those words on trust. Not the real Deborah, just a reflection or one facet saying those words?

I played this five times, with the volume up high, and all I got is "Trust is a very poor quality." Surely that can't be right?
