Borch, James McPherson, Thomas R. Turner.MPAA rating: PG-13; for some violent content.In the wake of Abraham Lincoln's assassination, seven men and one woman are arrested and charged with conspiring to kill the President, the Vice-President, and the Secretary of State. The lone woman charged, Mary Surratt, 42, owns a boarding house where John Wilkes Booth and others met and planned the simultaneous attacks. Against the ominous back-drop of post-Civil War Washington, newly-minted lawyer Frederick Aiken, a 28-year-old Union war hero, reluctantly agrees to defend Surratt before a military tribunal. As the trial unfolds, Aiken realizes his client may be innocent and that she is being used as bait and hostage in order to capture the only conspirator to have escaped a massive manhunt--her own son.

Katz.MPAA rating: Rated G; Canadian Home Video rating: PG.Arrogant, irascible, and misogynistic professor of phonetics Henry Higgins believes that the accent and tone of one's voice determines a person's prospects in society. He boasts to a new acquaintance, Colonel Hugh Pickering--also an expert in phonetics--that he could teach any woman to speak so "properly" that he could pass her off as a duchess at an embassy ball. He chooses as an example a sassy, young working-class London flower seller from the slums, Eliza Doolittle, who has a strong Cockney accent. Can Higgins turn Eliza into a duchess? And will Eliza care to remain a lady for long? When the humble flower girl blossoms into the toast of London's elite, her teacher may have a lesson or two to learn himself.Winner, 1965 Academy Awards for Best Sound--George Groves; Best Art Direction-Set Decoration, Color--Gene Allen, Cecil Beaton, George James Hopkins; Best Costume Design, Color--Cecil Beaton; Best Cinematography, Color--Harry Stradling Sr.; Best Music, Scoring of Music, Adaptation or Treatment--André Previn; Best Actor in a Leading Role--Rex Harrison; Best Director--George Cukor; Best Picture--Jack L.
