The Pageant of English History by William Shakespeare.
A second showing of 13: The Sun in Splendour

The Duke of York was killed by Queen Margaret at Wakefield, but the Yorkists, under their dead leader's son Edward, smashed the Lancastrians in the snow at Towton. Queen Margaret and her son have fled to France. Henry VI is Edward's prisoner. Warwick proclaims the new Duke of York Edward IV and goes to France to arrange a royal marriage, unaware that Edward has already decided to marry the widowed Lady Elizabeth Grey.

Produced by David O. Selznick from the story by Mark Twain

Mark Twain's well-loved classic of boyhood. In his picture of Tom-the boy who is always in trouble-the author looks back nostalgically on his own childhood and revives the charm of a period when it seemed that the days were endless and full of interest and sunshine.
