(1) Wasn't the 11 P.M. EWN also co-anchored by Grimsby and Beutel?
(2) I know the Best of Broadway title for their late-night/early morning movies was in use as early as 1963 (prior to then it was The Night Show); when did their weeknight movie change to The Movie Matinee (or The Matinee Movie, my memory's hazy at this point; I do know by 1972 or so that newer title was well in place). The question also applies to the first adoption of the Saturday / Sunday Night Movie title for their late-night weekend movie shows.
(3) As to the long-running theme music used not only for The 4:30 Movie but also their other movie umbrellas, is there anyone out there who would have any idea as to where it originated from? One of the British music libraries, or one of the U.S. music composers (along the lines of a music cue from future Hawaii Five-O theme writer Morton Stevens for the failed 1967 pilot Call to Danger which was used for many years from 1973 until the late 1980's for the "CBS Special Presentation" openings)?
