ROGUE MALE  5/5 @ 10 PM ET

Sir Robert Thorndyke (Peter O’Toole) is an aristocrat and hunter who, just for the sport of it, tracks Adolph Hitler to his mountain retreat. With the Fuhrer in his crosshairs, Thorndyke is caught and subsequently tortured by the SS. They attempt to kill him and make his death seem like a hunting accident, but Thorndyke escapes back to England — only to find that German agents have followed him there. The hunter soon finds himself the hunted in a deadly game of cat and mouse.

CITIZEN KANE  5/7 @ 6 PM ET  

When a reporter is assigned to decipher newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane’s (Orson Welles) dying words, his investigation gradually reveals the fascinating portrait of a complex man who rose from obscurity to staggering heights. Though Kane’s friend and colleague Jedediah Leland (Joseph Cotten), and his mistress, Susan Alexander (Dorothy Comingore), shed fragments of light on Kane’s life, the reporter fears he may never penetrate the mystery of the elusive man’s final word, “Rosebud.”

NETWORK  5/12 @ 10 PM ET  

In this lauded satire, veteran news anchorman Howard Beale (Peter Finch) discovers that he’s being put out to pasture, and he’s none too happy about it. After threatening to shoot himself on live television, instead, he launches into an angry televised rant, which turns out to be a huge ratings boost for the UBS network. This stunt allows ambitious producer Diana Christensen (Faye Dunaway) to develop even more outrageous programming, a concept that she takes to unsettling extremes.

BLACK WIDOW  5/14 @ 7 PM ET  

At a party, Broadway producer Peter Denver (Van Heflin) meets Nancy Ordway (Peggy Ann Garner), a young writer struggling to make it in New York City. Taking pity on her, Denver offers Nancy his apartment as a place to write while his wife, Iris (Gene Tierney), is away. Shortly after, Nancy is found dead in his bathroom, apparently murdered, and Denver is, of course, the main suspect. As rumors swirl about his involvement with Nancy, Denver decides to search for her killer himself.

LOVE AFFAIR  5/19 @ 10 PM ET  

Love Affair is a 1939 American romantic film starring Irene Dunne and Charles Boyer and featuring Maria Ouspenskaya. It was directed by Leo McCarey and written by Delmer Daves and Donald Ogden Stewart, based on a story by McCarey and Mildred Cram. The movie was remade in 1957 as An Affair to Remember.

CHARADE  5/26 @ 9 PM ET  

After Regina Lampert (Audrey Hepburn) falls for the dashing Peter Joshua (Cary Grant) on a skiing holiday in the French Alps, she discovers upon her return to Paris that her husband has been murdered. Soon, she and Peter are giving chase to three of her late husband’s World War II cronies, Tex (James Coburn), Scobie (George Kennedy) and Gideon (Ned Glass), who are after a quarter of a million dollars the quartet stole while behind enemy lines. But why does Peter keep changing his name?

ISLAND IN THE SUN  5/28 @ 6 PM ET

On a Caribbean island, a rich landowner’s son, Maxwell Fleury (James Mason), is fighting for political office against black labor leader David Boyeur (Harry Belafonte). As if the contentious election weren’t enough, there are plenty of scandals to go around: Boyeur has a secret white lover (Joan Fontaine) and Fleury’s wife, Sylvia (Patricia Owens), is also having an affair. And then, of course, there’s the small matter of a recently murdered aristocrat (Michael Rennie).
