1. Well I'll be. "The Next Voice You Hear" is the first movie I ever noticed with Nancy Reagan in it.

She is credited as Nancy Davis in the trailer. Just something I never really paid attention to.

2. Yes, I thought of editing TCM's cast list.

I do that anyway with some TCM schedule items (they often leave off key players or claim that information on the plot or the director is not available). But I let it stand this time. Perhaps TCM wants people to be able to recognize Nancy Reagan, especially if they are newbies to the station.
