tcm alert thread (Jun '23 - tcm alert: dead)

Whatever. I want Liz!

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

Liz tribute day is April 10th

Thanks... checking the schedule, there's nothing from after 1966 though. They should have a second tribute day.

Fritz Lang's Ministry Of Fear tonight

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

anyone feel like recommending The Green Slime?

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.

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

it is available on The Criterion Collection.

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.

Question answered! it is a tribute to Ebertfest.

Nine Jackie Cooper films tomorrow

No Vincent Price centennial marathon upcoming, wtf?

yeah, that seems egregious

maybe they'll do it in October

Tomorrow is a good day for watching TCM all day. Anatomy Of A Murder, Bell Book And Candle, Picnic, Splendor in The Grass and Jigoku.

are those all in 'Scope? anyhoo, this is why I need to get rid of cable, I'm workin'.

Picnic and Splendor in The Grass are both in CinemaScope! Can't you record them?

I've seen em, and I have no time to watch films ppl gave me for Christmas.

I wish people would give me nice movies for christmas, instead I get flannel sleepwear and tools.

Jean Simmons on Tuesday nights this month:

OOPS! ZOMBIES ATE THIS PAGE!

The '|' character is messing up clicking through, but cut-and-paste of address works fine.

Tashlin's dizzy Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?, momentarily.

Lots of Tod Browning-Lon Chaney movies on tonight. The Unknown is a must see.

24 hrs of Jean Gabin on Thursday.

Thanks, Morbz!

I didn't know Faulkner had been adapted to the screen this early -- does anybody have an opinion on The Story of Temple Drake (1933)? It's about to come on.

Goodness, that was a bit scandalous.

watching this right now and its fucking awesome!!!

the "duovision" thing is srsly next level!!! weird that the trailer doesnt employ the same technique... but like, the entire movie is two shots in split screen. its like watching two cuts of the same same movie, showing two different views of the same plot the whole time

also it takes place at the hotel del corodano (sup, ned)

like the video to semisonic's "closing time" but instead of a band in one half of the screen its different shots of the scene in the other frame, or shots of what the characters in the other frame are talking about, or shots of someone on the other side of the hotel doing something sneaky.

i'm so into this!!

stoked:

Tonight on Underground, Millie's outdone herself:

Hey I watched Wicked Wicked too -- it was pretty great! The stabber reminded me so much of Jeffrey Dahmer that I felt genuinely creeped out for a while. His mask was gross. The songs were also awesome.

Duovision kind of made me want to barf though, too overstimulating.

good lookin out johnny fever!
