January 11 is a 24-hour salute to Laurel and Hardy, with 40 shorts (16 of which are TCM premieres) and three feature films.

― Rich Lolwry (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 02:31 (fifteen years ago)
what about the Thin Man?
― kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 02:34 (fifteen years ago)
or y'know, lotsa things w/ Wm Powell.
anyway, pretty sure I never saw Riffraff w/ Spencer Tracy at 10:45 so I'm gonna try to stay awake through that.
love those come-ons in Red-Headed Woman: "Beee-ull!" "Chorr-lie!"
― kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 02:38 (fifteen years ago)
Don't associate Powell with a studio, or The Thin Man series for that matter; they're almost an independent phenomenon.
Anyway, those Thin Man movies are overrated as laff machines; only cared for the first two.
― Rich Lolwry (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 02:44 (fifteen years ago)
I just meant the first one -- think I only saw the second once

Thanks... checking the schedule, there's nothing from after 1966 though. They should have a second tribute day.
― Josefa, Saturday, 26 March 2011 17:14 (fifteen years ago)
Fritz Lang's Ministry Of Fear tonight
― three megabytes of hot RAM (abanana), Wednesday, 30 March 2011 17:23 (fifteen years ago)
