> I was actually hoping someone knew of a way of searching past schedules to identify which movie has been shown the most. I'm still hoping.
I could assemble a .txt file of movies shown. It will mean opening a database for a month, selecting the fields, copying them and then pasting that into a .txt file.
Will that help you?
How far back do you believe would be meaningful?

I believe it may be a matter of an attempt to show an alternate point-of-view. What the movie depicts as an external view is how quickly a person on it would feel it is going.
It is much like a robbery victim describing a weapon as a shotgun and it is later learned that it was a 7mm. It looked much larger when it was pointed at them.

I have been told that TCM had a week which highlighted the works of Hayao Miyazaki. I wish dearly that they would repeat that.

I would guess from what little I know of him that Anthony Bourdain would choose *The Searchers*

I thank you for your kind words.
It is possible that Capuchin will enter a schedule. I know he started sorting out movies for one. I do not have the passwords needed to see how far he is along with it.

I have found it. The episode is named: The Encounter and it starred George Takei and Neville Brand.
Information on it can be found at:

> my favorite moment of Garbo's in Ninotchka is at the beginning when she talks about her Polish soldier. I love the way she says that line. What is it? I don't quite remember....."I kissed him like that.... right before he died." the intimation being that she killed him.
When they are on the floor and Leon is trying to seduce her:
Ninotchka: Would you like to see my wound?
Leon: I'd love to.
She shows him the back of her neck.
Ninotchka: A Polish Lancer. I was sixteen.
Leon: Poor Ninotchka. Poor, poor Ninotchka.
Ninotchka: Don't pity me. Pity the Polish Lancer. After all, I'm still alive.
After she has learned who Leon is and he is trying to stop her leaving:
Leon: I held you in my arms. You kissed me!
Ninotchka: I kissed the Polish lancer too, before he died.
That is truly the heart of a Cossack: a young girl fierce in battle giving her enemy a moment of sweet tenderness as he dies.
I love the part where he describes his lifestyle and she says:
Ninotchka: You are something we do not have in Russia.
Leon: Thank you.
Ninotchka: That's why I believe in the future of my country.

Gelett Burgess was an art critic, artist, poet, author, illustrator and editor. It was he who wrote:
I never saw a purple cow.
I never hope to see one.
But I can tell you anyhow
I'd rather see than be one.
Within a span of two years all of his other works and accomplishments were considered secondary to his writing that one nonsense poem. He became so tired of people reciting it that he wrote a follow-up:
Ah, yes, I wrote the "Purple Cow."
I'm Sorry, now, I wrote it.
But I can tell you Anyhow
I'll Kill you if you Quote it!

> I start to wondering, since the Disney channel is targeted towards an audience of children, WHO'S children are still UP at that time?
The alternatives would be to rent shows from other companies or air infomercials. It costs them nearly nothing to air their own shows and I doubt that they wish having their brand associated with get-rich-quick schemes or ED treatments.
Parents can appreciate their shows being repeated in this way .Sick children are often awake at night and it is comforting for them to be able to watch shows which are familiar when they are suffering.

> {quote:title=casablancalover wrote:}{quote}I see your take. So, SansFin, you think of a woman being cool as:
> Inner confidence,

> Gentle warmth, but one on one,
> Not a wild attention seeker in crowds.
> Coolness and a just little mystery about her--but there are no skeletons in the closet.
> Emotionally even-keeled.

That is perfectly right!
> Damn, us gals can't play tough or else we're perceived as maniacal.
I have found it quite beneficial when some people are a little scared of what I might do.

People have been killed or maimed in mad rushes to buy discounted goods on Black Thursdays. I doubt the toymakers and electronics importers lose any sleep over it.

> > I believe I have watched all of the episodes of The Twilight Zone including one which was not put into syndication.
> Which one was that, SansFin?
I do not remember the name of the episode. I believe one of the actors was in the original Star Trek series. It involved two men in an attic and a sword. I remember a mention being made that it was not released into syndication because of racial issues.
-
I believe the standard of cool is not the same for women as it is for men.
Audrey Hepburn was very cool. I can not think of any contemporary actress who can be called cool in the same manner.

Vincent Price
I have seen an animated short film he narrated. His range was impressive and he had a great ability to influence the listener.

> > I had never heard of her before her death. It is probable that I have heard her songs and did not know who was the singer.
> You're kidding? As long as Whitney was in the business, you NEVER heard of her before her death?
American pop singers were of little interest to my friends or myself. They are more popular among the disco goers.
I made that statement to show my disconnect with her popularity in death. It should also serve to show that she was not the all-important person many obviously believe she was.
> In which case, what gives you the right to post that link to that offensive image of her, especially in light of anyone who KNEW who she was and enjoyed her work?
That image was created before her death. It is obvious that not all the people who knew who she was believed in her importance or the value of her work.
I did not post the image itself so as to not offend those who liked her. There is a word in the link which alerts as to the general nature and tone of the image. Those who know they would be offended by any reference to her as a scumbag should have self-censored and not risked exposure to a less-than-idyllic portrayal.
-
I had never heard of her before her death. It is probable that I have heard her songs and did not know who was the singer.
I find it odd that the world seems to divide between people who desperately need to know every detail of her life and death and people who believe she deserves a respectful obituary notice and the world should then move on to other matters.
I will not post the image itself:

I believe the personification of an inept police officer is James Gleason. He played the role brilliantly versus Miss Hildegarde Martha Withers, The Falcon and in many other movies.

> Love this schedule.
I thank you for your kind words.
> George Hamilton is a fascinating SOTM.
He is a fascinating actor. He built a career on his tan and easy nature. His real successes have been doing serious biographies. He is still highly regarded in the South for his portrayal of Hank Williams.
> Love the movie with cats ending with TO CATCH A THIEF - brilliant.
I was happy to include that movie as it has both human and feline cats.
> But my favorite part was "Dying is easy, comedy is hard". As a director of high school shows, let me tell you, it's true! Hilarious twist to show movies with both.
It is a thing I do not understand that dramas are considered more important when comedy requires much more work and talent. There is a scene in the movie: *Romantic Comedy* (1983) where a playwright explains that it take a lot of work to appear glib.
I thank you again for the kind words. I believe this is the most I have ever worked to create a schedule because I had no epiphany for an overall theme.

Cruella De Vil
I will happily second VX's nomination of Boris Karloff as Dr. Fu Manchu. He is very nearly evil personified.

SansFin's Program Notes
Bad Doc, No Biscuit
Mad doctors are a staple of classic movies. I believe I have chosen many of the best.
Account Deceivable
Embezzlers and embezzlement.
A Rabbit of Warrens
Most of these movies have been on my list of I-wish-to-schedule-these-movies since I began entering the Challenges. I noticed a common name in their listing. The theme came from that.
Faye Dunaway Birthday Tribute
I have always loved her performances. I doubt she will be a Star of the Month because her movies are new. I wished to show some of her best.
Cat as Cat Can
I like *Rhubarb* very much as a fine little comedy.
I would have chosed another movie with the title *The Black Cat* if I had not used all my Premieres for other things.
Star of the Month: George Hamilton
I have recently read his autobiography Don't Mind if I Do and I was impressed at the casual manner in which he drifted in and out of movies.
*Act One* is the biography of Moss Hart.
*Your Cheatin' Heart* is the biography of Hank Williams.
A Fowl Day
I believe it is only fair to give birds a day since I have given cats a day.
Audrey Hepburn has a pet canary in *Paris When It Sizzles* Its name is Richelieu because she wanted a cardinal.
There are ravens in *Sherlock Holmes Faces Death* and *Ellery Queen, Master Detective* and *The Raven*
There is a talking blackbird in *Find the Blackmailer*
Guest Programmer
I chose two of my favorite movies and two of my favorite exceptionally long movies because we are allowed only four movies and I needed to fill the entire evening.
There is an Elephant in the Room
The theme takes artistic liberty since there are few actual scenes with an elephant in a room in these movies.
Noah Beery Birthday Tribute
Noah Beery receives only a tiny part of the recognition which Noah Beery Jr. receives. I believe these are some of his best movies. I have ended his day with comedy.
A Fishy Story
Most of these are adventures. I have been able to end this day with comedy also.
Dying is easy. Comedy is hard.
It has long been known in the theater that drama can be learned and any person can die to great effect while comedy requires innate talent. These movies have both death and comedy.
Spineless Gits
I have covered many other animals. I thought I should give insects, plants and shapeless entities fair due.
The Should-Have-Been 1944 Oscars
I believe these are the finest works of the year.
Premieres:
*Act One* (1963)
*Alice in Wonderland* (1931)
*Alice in Wonderland* (1933)
*Cafe Metropole* (1937)
*The Crime of Monsieur Lange* (1936)
*The Day of the Triffids* (1962)
*Ellery Queen, Master Detective* (1940)
*Eyes of Laura Mars* (1978)
*The Godfather Part III* (1990)
*Laura* (1944)
*Les Miserables* (1958)
*Love at First Bite* (1979)
*Rhubarb* (1951)
*Something for the Birds* (1952)
