Exams But No Bogey

Summer School students this year will miss the finishing touch to their Harvard education; there will be no Bogey movies at the Brattle during exam period.

Cyrus Harvey, co-owner of Brattle Enterprises, couldn't remember what films would replace the usual Bogart Festival. And he said of the Festival, "I guess we just let it go past."

Harvey explained that two of the most popular movies. The Big Sleep and To Have and Have Not aren't available. "The Brattle doesn't have free choice of all the others we want, either," he added. For example, Sam Spiegel, producer of The African Queen, hasn't let the Queen out of his hands for about four years.

Harvey ended not very reassuringly: "Probably there will be only a small Bogey Festival in the Fall." Why come back?
