Move movies playing on D-Day

More movies playing during D-Day week. In Honolulu, a good old-fashioned double feature of The Strange Case of Doctor RX (marketed as a horror movie, but really a crime mystery) and B-western Pride of the Plains with Bob Livingston (who took over from John Wayne the role of Stony Brooke in the Three Mesquiteers movies).
In Los Angeles, The Eve of St. Mark, a war movie which seems to have gone missing in action, and Between Two Worlds, a remake of the 1930 supernatural film Outward Bound; an afterlife movie, a genre which, along with angel movies, really picked up in the post-war years.


In Billings, Montana, the colorful Maria Montez fantasy Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and some B-film double features, including one all-Spanish bill.

In Minneapolis, the war film None Shall Escape and Gaslight, followed by a Gaslight ad from Boston (a little classier than the Midwest got)
