This is based on the 1922 South Bend trial in which McNally was accused of murdering her twins, which she claimed were baby dolls. This sounds fascinating!

Sunday, April 7
South Bend Record & CD Collector’s Show
11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Comfort Suites
52939 Route 933, Mishawaka, Ind.
(574) 255-2227
This one’s pretty self explanatory, so take a trip if you want to find those out-of-print release Smiths vinyls. Never been to the Comfort Suites, but with 20,000 pieces of vinyl and 56 dealers, I assume they have a ballroom. If it’s in a single suite and a guy with grillz and neck chains smoking Swisher Sweets greets you at the door, find something else to do.

‘The Godfather’
7 p.m.
Cinemark Classic Series
Cinemark Movies 14 — Mishawaka
910 W. Edison Rd., Mishawaka, Ind.
(800) 326-3264
Seeing “The Godfather” digitally restored on the big screen should be a great treat. Plans to release “The Godfather II” to follow.
