Angels with Dirty Faces hasn't aired on TCM in 12 years. I assume there's some sort of rights issue. It was briefly on the schedule when TCM did a Michael Curtiz tribute a few years ago, but it was yanked before it aired.

I've never seen anything from Ray but his Apu movies, so I have a lot to learn.

Primetime May 3 begins the "Movie Roberts" Star of the Month theme, starting with Alec Baldwin's interview of Robert Osborne for TCM's 20th anniversary. You couldn't kick off the movies any more appropriately than with Crossfire, I guess, with all three leading roles being played by Roberts. TCM never being able to resist over-theming its SOTM programming by night, appears to have sub-themed this first night as all suspenseful films as well. King Kong (Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong) (RKO, 1933) The 39 Steps (Robert Donat, Madeline Carroll) (Dist. in the US by British Gaumont Pictures Corp. of America, 1935) Night Must Fall (Robert Montgomery, Rosalind Russell) (MGM, 1937) Crossfire (Robert Young, Robert Mitchum) (RKO, 1947) Strangers on a Train (Farley Granger, Robert Walker) (Warner Bros., 1951) Night of the Hunter (Robert Mitchum, Shelly Winters (United Artists, 1955) A Kiss Before Dying (United Artists, 1956)

I'm skipping May 1, because it's the last day of 31 Days of Oscar. Daytime May 2 has no theme listed. It's a Sunday, so that makes sense. Looks like it's essentially a bonus 12 hours of 31 Days, although the alphabetical theme is over. The Smiling Lieutenant (Maurice Chevalier, Claudette Colbert) (Paramount, 1931) Mrs. Miniver (Greer Garson, Walter Pidgeon) (MGM, 1942) Woman of the Year (Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn) (MGM, 1942) Gigi (Leslie Caron, Louis Jourdan) (MGM, 1958) Dear Heart (Geraldine Page, Glenn Ford) (Warner Bros, 1964) Oliver! (Ron Moody, Oliver Reed) (Columbia, 1968) The Year of Living Dangerously (Mel Gibson, Sigourney Weaver) (MGM, 1982) Primetime begins a 24-hour salute to Satyajit Ray on his 100th birthday that takes all the daytime programming of May 3 as well. Three Daughters at full-length is comprised of four short films, each about 30 minutes, but it has been repackaged in smaller segments over the years, it appears. Looks like TCM is showing all four short films in order of the original presentation but as four separate short films. Presumably with Wine Club commercials or whatever in between each one. I'm just listing it as one film. Interestingly, An Enemy of the People is an adaptation of the Isben play just like the Steve McQueen movie, but transplanted to India. Pather Panchali (Kanu Bannerjee, Karuna Banerjee) (Dist. in the US by Edward Harrison, 1958) Aparajito (Pinaki Sengupta, Samran Ghosal) (Dist. in the US by Edward Harrison, 1959) The World of Apu (Soumitra Chatterjee, Sharmila Tagore) (Dist. in the US by Edward Harrison, 1960) Devi (Sharmila Tagore, Soumitra Chatterjee) (No company credits listed, 1960) The Music Room (Chhabi Biswas, Sardar Akhtar) (Dist. in the US by Edward Harrison, 1963) Three Daughters (Anil Chatterjee, Chandana Banerjee) (Dist. in the US by Janus, 1963) The Big City (Anil Chatterjee, Madhabi Mukerjee) (Dist. in the US by Edward Harrison, 1967) Charulata (Soumitra Chatterjee, Madhabi Mukerjee) (Dist. in the US by Sony Pictures Classics, 1995) The Stranger (Utpal Dutt, Dipankar Dey) (Dist. in the US by Filmhaus, 1995) The Coward (Soumitra Chatterjee, Madhabi Mukerjee) (Dist. in the US by Gala Entertainment Corp., 2004) The Holy Man (Charuprakash Ghosh, Rabi Ghosh) (Dist. in the US by Gala Entertainment Corp. 2004) An Enemy of the People (Soumitra Chatterjee, Dhritiman Chatterjee) (Dist. in the US by the Criterion Collection, 2014)

Publisher cancels Woody Allen memoir amid backlash
sewhite2000 replied to MovieMadness's topic in General Discussions
Most of the Farrows don't want to squabble in private. They want to destroy Allen in the court of public opinion, since it appears they will never be able to do so in a court of law, and they want to make themselves out to be righteous, noble victims. From what I've read about this thing on other websites, it is entirely one-sided, theirs. I am only slightly interested in it because some of the old footage of Woody and Mia back in the day. But I haven't had an HBO subscription in 20 years probably and won't get one just for this. -
I was probably not quite old enough to have read that particular strip in the newspaper, but it was in one of the many Peanuts collections I had as a child. Around the same time, they also revealed Rosebud's identity on an episode of Eight is Enough, and elementary school me was like, "Okay, what is this movie everyone keeps talking about?" I was quite interested to learn that Citizen Kane was scheduled to air one Saturday afternoon, a day because my parents were going to a wedding or somesuch function I had to spend with my dad's parents in a town 10 miles south of our own, but I guess they were on the same cable system (back when cable was about 13 channels), because it was also airing there. I told my grandparents I had to watch it. Outside of Wizard of Oz and The Sound of Music, it had the potential to be my first classic movie viewing and certainly my first one entirely in black-and-white. I arrived too late for the opening credits, but it was a black-and-white movie, so I assumed it was Kane. There was an opening sequence about some children playing together, swimming, swinging in a barn. It didn't look very wintry. Eventually, it segued into their young adulthood. I was like, "Wait a minute. I didn't see any sled. There was no sled. This isn't Citizen Kane!" So, I turned it off, and I think my grandad and I went outside and threw a football around. I didn't watch Kane until my introduction to film class in my freshman year of college maybe 10 years later. Many years after that I watched Kings Row for the first time on TCM and realized it was the movie the station had apparently accidentally aired instead of Kane that day.

April 2021 "31 Days of Oscar 2021"
sewhite2000 replied to Movie Collector OH's topic in General Discussions
I've looked at every title from A through H. and so far, there isn't a single 20th Century Fox movie.
