I was today years old when I learned that James Clavell, who I know as the author of Shōgun, also directed To Sir, With Love -- and wrote the screenplay. He also penned the script for The Fly and co-wrote The Great Escape. (Incidentally, he was #botd in 1921.)

Remembering Helen Hayes, #botd in 1900. She was always great -- I loved her best in A Farewell to Arms, Another Language, and The Sin of Madelon Claudet, for which she won her first Oscar. Her son was James MacArthur, best-known as "Danno" in the original Hawaii Five-O.

Tune into @TCM Friday evening for He Ran All the Way (1951). This underrated noir stars John Garfield (in his last screen role), Shelley Winters, and Wallace Ford. It's so good. bit.ly/3VVx3YB
