Not sure about FMC - but the TCM database doesn't have an article about it, so my guess is that it hasn't been shown on TCM.

Has Let's Make Love ever been shown on TCM or FMC?

You know, the one with Marilyn Monroe and Yves Montand. I've always heard it was a bad film, but it's the only film she made that I've never seen. It'd be nice if they show it sometime.

This might not help much if you don't have a multi-region DVD player, but Christmas Holiday was released in the UK (which of course means a Region 2 DVD) as part of a Deanna Durbin collection.

I located a VHS of MADAME SATAN via Amazon.

Now if only there were a legitimate (not bootleg) copy of ALIAS NICK BEAL, starring Ray Milland and Audrey Totter. Even a VHS would be welcome.

the uncensored, uncut original version of Mata Hari, there are many petitions for this to be put out on DVD or perhaps as a dvd in the next forbidden hollywood series, this really was a bona fide precode movie before it was butchered when mgm re-released it in 1936, i believe, give us garbo as mata hari intended her to be!

PROFESSIONAL SOLDIER is another I grew up watching, starring Freddie Bartholomew, Gloria Stuart and Victor McLaglen. Someone did upload it on youtube and I have to say that it still holds up great!

Welcome to the boards. Much as we would like to see it, TCM doesn't have access to every film ever made.

As for the two you mentioned, MARGIE is a 20th Century-Fox film and, while TCM does show some Fox films, it appears to be one that they keep for their own Fox Movie Channel. Having said that, you never know, maybe one day it will show up on TCM.

SCARLET ANGEL was released by Universal. TCM seems to have struck a deal with that studio and more of its films are making the schedule.

All things considered, I think that the chances of both those films showing up on TCM are better now than say a couple of years ago. Just keep you fingers crossed and keep watching the schedules.

THE VIKING (1928) Neat Two-color Technicolor silent hasn't been seen on TCM in years.
DEVIL MAY CARE (1929) Ramon Novarro Talkie hasn't been shown in a long time
CALL OF THE FLESH (1930) Another Novarro talkie missing from the TCM line up for years, also Renee Adoree's last film appearence.
MADAME SATAN(1930), Hasn't been shown in a while.
BAD COMPANY (1931) Excellent gangster film from RKO/Pathe.
A LA SOMBRA DEL PUENTE (1948), A really neat Mexican film based on a Maxwell Anderson play.
TCM hasn't shown this one in many years.
I'm sure I'll think of a few more ...

I have a couple of movies that have never been shown on TCM and I have always wondered why. I really hope TCM will play them. Thank you

1. Margie - with Jeanne Crain - wonderful movie
2. Scarlet Angel - with Yvonne DeCarlo and Rock Hudson - great movie

It is a shame the "SUGGEST A MOVIE" option is gone as there are so many great films that need to be screened again or haven't been shown, let alone on dvd! Here are my suggestions...

"THE SHARKFIGHTERS" Victor Mature (shown only once!)

"THE MOUNTAIN" Spencer Tracy and Robert Wagner

"SECRET OF THE INCAS" Charlton Heston

"FLESH AND FANTASY" Edward G. Robinson, Charles Boyer (on region 2 dvd-Spain)

CITY BENEATH THE SEA" Robert Ryan, Anthony Quinn (on region 2 dvd-Germany)

Anyone else?
