I'm curious about something. I know that WKYC's afternoon movie series bore The Early Show title left over from Westinghouse/KYW days (ironic, given Westinghouse's eventual acquisition of CBS whose O&O's had movie shows with that title), but did Channel 3 have a late weekend (Saturday or Sunday) evening movie series at this time period (1969), and if so, would anyone know the title (given WNBC New York's Sunday Film Festival, WMAQ Chicago's Movie 5 and KNBC Los Angeles' Movie 4)?

WBhist:
From the days I have for that particular week, WKYC-TV had a Double Feature Saturday, April 26, 1969 at 11:20-Onionhead (1958) with Andy Griffith and Song Without End (1960)..I am not sure, but it seems WKYC titled this movie slot "The Late Show"..At the same time, WEWS-TV 5 called their movies either "Million Dollar Movie" or "Movie 5" while WJW called their late movies "Cinema '69" (or whatever year)..WKYC had Tonight Show reruns Sunday nights at 11:30
 
Interesting you bring up "Cinema '69" (or whatever
year) since sister station WAGA used the same title
for its Wednesday-night locally-originated movie.
I assume all the Storer stations used this title, as
did WGHP, which was repped by Storer and borrowed
heavily from Atlanta, Cleveland, and other Storer cities
for its schedules in those days.
