TCM Schedule for Wednesday, May 4: Cinema's Exiles
And today's birthday tribute is for Audrey Hepburn, born this day in 1929. She left us too soon.
And if you haven't seen everything in tonight's line-up, find a way. I'd especially mention The Seventh Cross, which I'd never heard of until I stumbled over a videocassette of it years ago.
