MOVIES AT THE TCA

"Summertime"

Sunday, April 20 at 2 p.m.
Monday and Tuesday, April 21 & 22 at 7 p.m.

The first film that British director David Lean shot on location abroad, the smoothly crafted Summertime is a sensitive account of a love affair between a middle-aged American spinster (Katharine Hepburn) and a married Italian antiques shop owner (Rossano Brazzi), who meet while she is holidaying in 50s Venice. Showing in a freshly restored print which does justice to the film's lush Technicolor cinematography, its comparatively modest scale makes for an interesting contrast with Lean's later, much more famous epics such as Lawrence Of Arabia and Dr. Zhivago.
