I'm looking at TCM's schedule for August 28 in Summer Under the Stars, honoring Ingrid Bergman. Bergman made several films with director-husband Roberto Rossellini, thanks to the controversial nature of their relationship making Hollywood not want to deal with her for a while. (She'd have a triumphant return with Anastasia, not on tomorrow's schedule.) It looks like none of the Rossellini films that TCM has selected to air tomorrow are currently available from the TCM Shop:
First up at 10:00 AM is Stromboli, which has Bergman playing a refugee from World War II who gets picked up by an Italian man who lives on a small isolated island. The two marry and move to his village, where she finds that life isn't all it's cracked up to be. I saw this one several years ago and recall being less than impressed by it. But that was just my opinion.
Journey to Italy at 11:45 AM has Bergman and George Sanders playing a married couple who, realizing that their marriage is on the rocks, try out a separation in the Naples area. Nice place to try it, I suppose.
I don't think I'd heard of Fear (1:15 PM) until now. This one has Bergman married to a scientist but having an adulterous affair ang getting blackmailed for it, at least according to the TCM blurb.
