- On today's episode of Saturday Night at the Movies our host, Glenn Holland covers the 1944 classic film Gaslight.
After the death of her famous opera-singing aunt, Paula (Ingrid Bergman) is sent to study in Italy to become a great opera singer as well. While there, she falls in love with the charming Gregory Anton (Charles Boyer). The two return to London, and Paula begins to notice strange goings-on: missing pictures, strange footsteps in the night and gaslights that dim without being touched. As she fights to retain her sanity, her new husband's intentions come into question.

- Caitlin Clark, a rising star in women's basketball, embodies the fierce determination and talent that define the sport. Caitlin represents the pinnacle of athletic achievement as a standout player for the Iowa Hawkeyes and the top pick in the 2024 WNBA draft.

Caitlin's emergence underscores the urgent need for change, not only in leveling the playing field for female athletes but also in addressing broader societal inequities that affect women of all backgrounds.
