On this day in 1958, WARNER BROTHERS PICTURES released AUNTIE MAME. Directed by MORTON DaCOSTA from a screenplay by BETTY COMDEN and ADOLPH GREEN, this PATRICK DENNIS memoir is a true delight. ROSALIND RUSSELL totally owns the titular role of madcap riches-to-rags-to-riches socialite guardian of a young orphan. Also in the cast are FORREST TUCKER, CORAL BROWNE, FRED CLARK, ROGER SMITH, PEGGY CASS, YUKI SHIMODA, JOANNA BARNES and LEE PATRICK. This one never gets old.
