Re: I Just Watched...
Speaking of original Perry Mason TV series, I am always highly interested in the automobiles. Perry would go from a Ford to a Cadillac to a Lincoln, etc. Paul usually drove the best cars - mostly Thunderbirds. Perry paid him well. In the early episodes, Perry drives what looks like a standard Ford,...

Re: 2024 TCM Film Festival
Wasn't the Egyptian divvied up into small performance spaces? Is it all one theater again? The Egyptian was all one space. It just reopened a few months ago after being closed for a year (or maybe longer) for a renovation. The theater is gorgeous. We saw two movies there during the festival. Fantas...

Re: 2024 TCM Film Festival
First, let me say that I adore TCM and could not live without it. For years my husband and I debated about going to the festival but the thought of paying for the cost of the passes plus travel to LA (for 2) always seemed to be a wee bit extravagant to screen movies that, in most cases, you had see...

Re: Noir Alley
For those who might have missed it, the Neo-Noir series on TCM was a special theme on Fridays in July, 2021. Each week Ben and Eddie would introduce and discuss three films classified as Neo-Noir. It seemed to be a joint project they had worked out together, and TCM promoted it as an offshoot of No...

Re: Coming up on TCM...
Anyone catch the Jennifer Jones/Joseph Cotton double feature on Sun. night? Neither of those films are shown on TCM very much. I tuned in during the middle of Portrait of Jennie (not realizing it was on). I love Love Letters, but it ran too late, so I recorded it to watch this wknd. I love the scor...

Re: Noir Alley
...I’m not trying to be critical of Noir Alley for repeats. After 5 years they are probably unavoidable, and at least Eddie is freshening up the material as he sees fit... And exactly the reason I've been saying for years now that I hope Eddie will eventually get around to featuring some Neo-Noir f...

Re: I Just Watched...
I think there were a handful of jazz nightclub type episodes. Unsure which one I'm remembering. Yeah, suddenly Perry is on 3 or 4 cable channels now with marathons on wknds on one of them. And starting earlier on weeknights too. Yeah, I just noticed tonight that PM is also on another channel in add...

Re: April 2024 Schedule Posted, Marlon Brando is SOTM
It's been on Sundance, AMC and BBC America lately (with ads), along with on-demand copies on MGM+ and YouTube Movies. I DVR'ed it off Showtime when they had a free week offer some time ago, and my DVR still picks up copies from various networks. The ad networks have about 45 mines of ads, based on ...

Re: A Glimpse of Golden Age Hollywood
With all the smoking done on and off set it's a wonder they could keep the film and cameras clean and uncontaminated.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Sat next to her at the TCM Film Festival the only time I bought the pass for the opening night film ( The Sound of Music was that year for its 50th anniversary). This was a year or two before War Paint . On the other side of us was James Cromwell. Both were very nice. Ended up walking back to the ho...

Re: I Just Watched...
I'll defend Lavin's singing a bit here. She was a Broadway (and off-Broadway) veteran long before Alice came about, in musicals and straight plays. She was in an off-Broadway revue with Jo Anne Worley and Paul Sand, among others, called The Mad Show , loosely based on Mad magazine. She sang a song a...

Re: I Just Watched...
I don't think I've ever seen an entire episode of ALICE, but I love the movie ALICE DOESN'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE [/b]that was the inspiration for the TV series. I'M THE OPPOSITE- I've only seen the TV SERIES, which I grew up watching on THE SUPERSTATION. It would be interesting to see what you think o...

Re: I Just Watched...
When sitcom writers resort to relying on catchphrases to get a big studio audience response, that sitcom is generally on the decline. Whether it's "Dyn-o-mite!", "Kiss my grits", or "Up your nose with a rubber hose," they are funny the first half dozen times, but wear a...

We're almost at the exact hour of TCM's first sign-on. They signed on the air at 6 p.m. EDT on 14 April 1994.
