Subject:        Romanoff and Juliet

For those interested in Shakespeare spinoffs:  the film ROMANOFF AND
JULIET (1961, from the 1956 play by Peter Ustinov) will be shown twice
this month on American Movie Classics on cable TV:

        9/5     7:15-9 AM
        9/14    2:15-4 PM

It is a marvelous relic of cold-war politics and has some lovely moments
(mostly from Ustinov himself, who also directs).  This movie is not
available on video (as far as I know), so crank up those VCRs.  I am not
affiliated with AMC, etc., etc.

Cheers,
Douglas Lanier
