audreyforever, I don't know how much you know about Francis Ford, John's older brother, but they both worked together in many movies, especially during their years doing silent movies. A friend recently e-mailed me an article that focuses on the relationship between the Ford brothers; I have not had time to read it all the way through but it does seem fairly fascinating: http://www.sensesofcinema.com/2009/feature-articles/brother-feeney-francis-ford/

Good points, SansFin - I just wish I was a bit more familiar with episodes from The Twilight Zone and Doctor Who to really come up with the best examples. As for The Sword in the Stone, I guess it could be considered falling into a similar category as A Christmas Carol in that it portrays something that constitutes a temporal displacement, albeit it is not usually thought of as being primarily a sci-fi story. I'll keep that in mind next time The Sword in the Stone, too.

When the Ghosts of Christmas Past and Future show him scenes, there is a whirlpool effect, and hourglasses tumbling. Scrooge isn't "there" -- he's only an observer -- but it's something like time travel. Well, in some ways I guess it might be looked at that way. On the other hand, does the Dickens novel ever conclusively establish that Scrooge couldn't simply have been having a very peculiar dream? But if we accept that the spirits are real and that Scrooge has really been taken back in time, and also briefly into the future - or at least one possible future - then it would definitely constitute time displacement. Of course, I don't think A Christmas Carol is usually classified as sci-fi, but even that could just be an example of how stuff that involves time-travel doesn't necessarily only occur in the sci-fi genre.

Thanks, TCM, for the prime time tribute to Inger Stevens on Friday, April 9th - it's about time she was recognized for her fine work in these westerns. By the way, there was a discussion of Firecreek in the rambles thread a while back, not sure how long ago but probably earlier this year. *_INGER STEVENS TRIBUTE - APRIL 9TH_* *Hang 'Em High* (1968) 8pm ET A mysterious drifter survives a lynching then goes back for revenge.

Hi TigerBlam, welcome to the forums You might check out the _audio_ podcasts available on the TCM website: http://www.tcm.com/podcast/ Other than that, I am not sure the "Private Screening" and other TCM specials are available anywhere else, unless they were included in some DVD as a bonus feature.

Fun facts about Greta Garbo: * Birth name: Greta Lovisa Gustafsson * Her personal favorite movie of her own was *Camille* (1936). * In the mid-1950s she bought a seven-room-apartment in New York City (450 East 52nd Street) and lived there until she died. * Her favorite American director was Ernst Lubitsch, although Clarence Brown, directed her in six films, including the classics *Flesh and the Devil* (1926), *A Woman of Affairs* (1928), *Anna Christie* (1930), and *Anna Karenina* (1935).

Hope you'll enjoy it. I like it a lot, though maybe not quite as much as Sirk's remake. They're both worth watching, though - for sure!
