Nice write up by Donald Liebenson about Robert Mitchum as SOTM. Mitchum is my favorite actor so I may be biased, but he made many, many absolutely great movies and TCM is showing some of them.
Yet another example of greatest actors, actresses, directors and screenwriters never winning an Oscar.
Hope you can read the short article and the list of movies being shown.
Showing Tuesdays - 47 movies.
I'm hoping TCM shows Where Danger Lives (1950 - RKO). While only an OK film, it does feature Faith Domergue. Yea, she wasn't a great actress, by any means, but I find her deadpan style appealing. The film also has Claude Rains. He is only featured in one key scene, but it is a well-directed one and the contrast in acting style of Mitchum and Domergue, with that of an animated Rains is well worth seeing.
PS: Did you wish to post a link? I ask because you mention a short article and list of movies being shown.
I'm never sure about posting links to things I subscribe to, such as TCM, even though it is free. Try the below:

I think Where Danger Lives is on Tuesday, Jan. 02.- lot of good ones.
