Description: Major Bennett Marco is an intelligence officer in the U.S. Army. He served valiantly as a Captain in the Korean war and his Sergeant, Raymond Shaw even received the Medal of Honor. Marco has a major problem however: he has a recurring nightmare, one where two members of his squad were killed by Shaw. He's put on indefinite sick leave and visits Shaw in New York City. Shaw, for his part, has established himself well, despite the misgivings of his domineering mother, Mrs. Eleanor Shaw Iselin. She is a red-baiter, accusing anyone who disagrees with her right-wing reactionary views of being a Communist. Raymond hates her, not only for how she's treated him, but equally because of his stepfather, the ineffectual U.S. Senator John Iselin, who is intent on seeking higher office. When Marco learns that others in his Korean War unit have had nightmares similar to his own, he realizes that something happened to all of them in Korea, and that Raymond Shaw is the focal point.

As grieving Mrs Violet Venable, an aging wealthy widow who is one of the city's wealthiest benefactors, promises to contribute a hefty amount of money to the institution, Dr Cukrowicz finds himself confronted with a grave, pressing dilemma: perform a lobotomy on her committed niece Catherine Holly, or lose a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to save the state hospital. Indeed, ever since the tragic death of Violet's son Sebastian, troubled Catherine has been losing her grip on reality, stigmatized forever after that horrible, fateful vacation at a sun-drenched Spanish village. However, is poor Catherine eligible for the delicate procedure? Either way, no one can change the truth, not even God. What happened, suddenly, last summer?

Onlyoldmovies bulletin no. 7

Dear visitors

1. As www.onlyoldmovies.info registration period and website hosting plan ends in less than 24 hours from the moment when this note is posted, info domain will not be available for next couple of weeks, until hosting is paid and re-registration of site by new registrar completes. I've asked for small donations to that cause, but no positive response was received, so until further notice externally hosted domain is unavailable, and the only active source for that time being is onlyoldmovies.blogspot.com

2. Because of that fact and lack of free time, posting of new movies and upgrades to previously posted flicks will be postponed until further notice. For more details of blog recent activivities in incoming weeks please check Twitter posts on the right sidebar of the site or at twitter.com/onlyoldmovies

3. There are also some major changes coming soon, but it will take several weeks until all the ideas are implemented. Until that time all the services will be available as of now.
