well it's Roach on Tuesdays, but

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

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:33 (fifteen years ago)

first of four Jean Harlow Tuesday nights under way.

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 02:30 (fifteen years ago)

finally saw Libeled Lady on Sunday; didn't expect a funny screwball comedy from MGM.

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.

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 02:34 (fifteen years ago)

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

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 02:46 (fifteen years ago)

tonight, Lord Love a Duck (a KJB fave, right)

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 19:45 (fifteen years ago)

a nan, a bal, an anal ― (abanana), Friday, 11 March 2011 14:45 (fifteen years ago)

johnny crunch, Friday, 11 March 2011 14:54 (fifteen years ago)

Harlow & Lee Tracy in Bombshell tonight

Fuck bein' hard, Dr Morbz is complicated (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 15 March 2011 11:42 (fifteen years ago)

Bonjour Tristesse today.

three megabytes of hot RAM (abanana), Wednesday, 16 March 2011 20:36 (fifteen years ago)

Mark Evanier recommended The Projectionist (also tonight) on his blog, but I'm not convinced.

lowfat dry milquetoast (WmC), Wednesday, 16 March 2011 21:02 (fifteen years ago)

^It's a weird fun film.

Six Harlow-Gable films tonight (make Red Dust a priority).

Fuck bein' hard, Dr Morbz is complicated (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 22 March 2011 18:56 (fifteen years ago)

your generation appalls me (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 26 March 2011 03:02 (fifteen years ago)

Whatever. I want Liz!

Josefa, Saturday, 26 March 2011 16:11 (fifteen years ago)

(My fantasy Liz program: triple bill of Boom!/Hammersmith Is Out/The Driver's Seat)

Josefa, Saturday, 26 March 2011 16:34 (fifteen years ago)

Liz tribute day is April 10th

WmC, Saturday, 26 March 2011 16:53 (fifteen years ago)

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)

I think post-'66 Liz would need John Waters as guest curator

your generation appalls me (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 March 2011 17:27 (fifteen years ago)

anyone feel like recommending The Green Slime?

your generation appalls me (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 9 April 2011 07:19 (fifteen years ago)

Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles -- I'd never heard of this before, but seeing it was showing later tonight, I read up on it a little -- I really wish I had a DVR.

the wages of sin is about tree fiddy (WmC), Monday, 18 April 2011 03:33 (fifteen years ago)

Thanks for the reminder! I noticed it was going to be on a few days ago and then totally forgot!

Gukbe, Monday, 18 April 2011 03:34 (fifteen years ago)

it is available on The Criterion Collection.

your generation appalls me (Dr Morbius), Monday, 18 April 2011 03:43 (fifteen years ago)

Why is Shotgun Stories on TCM late Monday night?

Also, if you haven't seen it and are severely disappointed with the career path David Gordon Green has taken, I recommend it.

Gukbe, Thursday, 28 April 2011 04:46 (fifteen years ago)

Question answered! it is a tribute to Ebertfest.

Gukbe, Tuesday, 3 May 2011 05:29 (fifteen years ago)

Nine Jackie Cooper films tomorrow

No Vincent Price centennial marathon upcoming, wtf?
