I'm surprised this Columbia "B" starring Bela Lugosi hasn't popped up yet on TCM. They've been stingy with their rare Columbias of late. I might also mention FOG, THE NINTH GUEST and THE BEST MAN WINS.
-
THE SCARECROW OF ROMNEY MARSH is well worth seeing. Ditto TREASURE ISLAND, MARY POPPINS and THE THREE LIVES OF THOMASINA.
-
A day of Republic or Monogram Pics would be entertaining. Of course, I could suggest many titles!
-
I think a full 1/3 of the month should be devoted to stars who were at their peak in the 20s and 30s.
-
We need a "bigwig" who loves pre-Codes.
-
HEAT LIGHTNING is the ultimate Aline MacMahon experience.

Because there's more to TCM than NAKED GUN, TOP SECRET and AIRPLANE.

Loretta Young's most entertaining pics were her pre-Codes.
-
As much as I hate 1980s films on TCM, I approve of this one because it's perfect for TCM UNDERGROUND.
-
THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY; THE LAST DRAGON: THE BIG CHILL; NAKED GUN; TOP SECRET; AIRPLANE; BREAKER MORANT; REDS; TENDER MERCIES...somebody tell me this is an April Fool's joke.
-
No comments about this? I'm surprised nobody has accused TCM of purveying pornography.

Back in the saddle today!
-
The highlight is definitely NIGHT CLUB LADY (Columbia, 1932). Also nice to see the 1935 version of MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION.
-
Has anyone seen JERSEY SHORE on MTV? These "kids" are Italian-American and refer to themselves as Guidos and Guidettes. I kid you not.
-
When TCM shows TRICK FOR TRICK (1933) starring Victor Jory, Ralph Morgan and Sally Blane, I'll _really_ be impressed.

> Just channel surfed over to TCM to see the 1931 movie Trader Horn. In short, White hunters and their African guides go on a trek to rescue the long lost daughter of white missionaries. The ostensible hero and leader of the expedition is Horn, a hardened POM or Afrikaner or whatever, who has a penchant for kicking his African employees in the buttocks and referring to them as apes and gorillas. Horn, his Spanish partner, who is a neophyte to the "African wild', and his guide he refers to as a "Gun Boy" (a capable African man who saves the expedition on numerous occasions), eventually locate the now adult white woman living peacefully among the indigenous people.

> These people, for no apparent reason, take Horn's party captive and "savagely" dance and ritually sacrifice all of the African members (save Horn's best gun boy, who predictably dies later in the movie). The woman successfully convinces the people to stop the "savagery" and release her and Horn's party. They do, only to change their minds shortly thereafter and embark on a chase across the wild to recapture the party. For the rest of the movie, the escapees have to overcome crocs, hippos, lions, elephants, etc in their trek back to civilization. Eventually the party returns to civilization, having saved the blond purity of the woman from primal A-f-r-i-c-a.

> Ok, so its a '30s era flick with over the top racism - I get it. It played on a Saturday morning. Shouldn't there have been some viewer advisory before the movie started? Next to Birth of a Nation, I can't think of a more racist flick.
Blah blah blah.
