   Remember the Night (1940)
Direction: Mitchell Leisen
Screenplay: Preston Sturges
Cast: Barbara Stanwyck, Fred MacMurray, Beulah Bondi, Elizabeth Patterson, Willard Robertson, Sterling Holloway 
&#160;

Fred MacMurray, Barbara Stanwyck in Remember the Night
&#160;

A holiday delight that resonates from a Preston Sturges  screenplay, Remember the Night assays  familiar moral territory inconspicuously. As he did with the scripter’s classic  Easy Living (1937), Mitchell Leisen directs. In the earlier collaboration,  down-on-her-luck Jean Arthur chances upon luxury, an impetus for the  screenwriter to lightly pit haves against have-nots. In Remember the Night, new to DVD from the Universal-TCM Vault Collection, star Barbara Stanwyck initially has less serendipitous  designs upon good fortune.
Sturges is not as concerned with economic wealth this time [...]]]></description>

The digitally remastered Remember the Night (1940), written by Preston Sturges, directed by Mitchell Leisen, and starring Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray, is the highlight of Turner Classic Movies&#8216; Christmas movie series this month.
But there are other goodies &#8212; or potential goodies &#8212; as well. One such is It Happened on 5th Avenue (1947), a minor Allied Artists (ex-Monogram) comedy directed by former WB contractee Roy Del Ruth, and featuring  Don DeFore, former RKO star Ann Harding, and Gale Storm.  The story centers on a hobo and his buddies who take over a mansion while the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A digitally restored version of Remember the Night, the 1940  classic written by Preston Sturges, directed by Mitchell Leisen, and starring Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray, is one of Turner Classic Movies&#8216; Christmas presentations this December. Remember the Night will air several times throughout the month, including on Christmas Eve at 5 p.m. (PT).  
“It’s one of those quirky twists of fate that a film as exceptional as Remember the Night has been so overlooked when it comes to great Christmas movies,”  TCM host Robert Osborne was quoted as saying.  “It’s our hope at TCM that our special Christmas Eve showing of this holiday gem, now fully remastered, will help give it a much-deserved new life.” [...]]]></description>

In a June 5 piece for  The Guardian, Film London Chief Executive Adrian Wootton discusses Raymond Chandler&#8217;s purported cameo appearance in Double Indemnity, which Chandler co-adapted with director Billy Wilder from James M. Cain&#8217;s novel:
&#34;&#8230; More than 60 years after its release, a French cinema  historian and two US crime-writers almost simultaneously happened on  the same bizarre discovery &#8211; that Raymond Chandler, uncredited and  previously unnoticed, has a tiny cameo in Double Indemnity. On 14  January, the American mystery writer Mark Coggins, tipped off by  another writer, John Billheimer, posted the news on his website,  Riordan&#8217;s desk, [...]]]></description>
