Re: January 2024 Schedule Posted, Robert Mitchum is SOTM
I like "Desire Me" too. It's kind of a weird film. It's film noir esque, and it was nice seeing Garson outside of playing the stoic, mother/wife type roles. It's been awhile since I've seen this film, but I remember liking Garson with Mitchum and I remember loving the fog scene. I disagree with Mayer, "Desire Me" is hardly MGM's worst film. I'd love to put many of MGM's incredibly saccharine musicals up on that pedestal. While MGM was known as the place with "more stars than in heaven" and prided itself on glamorous, lavish productions, MGM is probably one of my least favorite studios. Save for some of their Judy/Gene/Fred musicals and a handful of other films, I find that Warner Bros, Paramount, and RKO offer films that are a lot more up my alley.

thanks, Actually it is on Tubi and I have it in my Watch List.cmovieviewer wrote: ↑January 25th, 2024, 4:53 pmTCM showed The Wonderful Country (1959) early in the morning on January 10 as a continuation of Robert Mitchum westerns that began the previous evening. Sorry that you missed it. TCM does include it occasionally so it might be scheduled again at some point.
