Sweet Charity (1969), starring Shirley MacLaine, John McMartin, Ricardo Montalban, Sammy Davis Jr., and Barbara Bouchet. The release will be available for purchase on July 23.
Synopsis: Charity Hope Valentine (Shirley MacLaine) always tries to look on the bright side of life, despite working in a rundown dance hall and contending with a seemingly endless run of bad dates. Determined to find love, Charity falls for suave actor Vittorio Vidal (Ricardo Montalban), but their romance is all too brief. However, when Charity finds herself stuck in an elevator with the reserved Oscar Lindquist (John McMartin), it turns out that she may have finally met her match.
