Monday, Feb. 21 - Marty (TV)

Marty
(The Philco-Goodyear Television Playhouse TV series 1948–1955)

Renowned dramatist Paddy Chayefsky’s poignant and touching character study of a lonely, middle-aged butcher (Rod Steiger) looking for love helped usher in the naturalistic style of television drama in the 1950s. Marty, directed by Delbert Mann, remains an enduring classic of the age of live television.
