Now we know for certain. It is definitely not Sole Survivor (1970), with William Shatner.

You tell 'em!

According to DirecTV, it's supposed to be Ramona (1928):

While the character of Quasimodo is horrific and grotesque, he does not cut a swath of devastation and death through a group or area like other horror movie monsters. It is more properly a drama, or even adventure. I don't know if there is a literature category for movies.

(...in fact, this shot-for-shot remake was the first version of Zenda I ever recall seeing and before eventually watching the Colman version of which I now believe to be a bit better, BUT in my view this 1952 remake is STILL worth a watch or three)
If only for Jane Greer.

But in essence, you are correct.
RDA for b-vitamins, protein, and fiber. Mostly fiber.

Actually slayton, I think it looks like the hood ornament on a 1938 DeSoto!

It's impossible to spend too much time on my threads. They are sober, edifying, and nutritious.

Between flower and bird, I'd choose bird. But not much of a bird.

Ralph Fiennes tried hard to be Mr. Steed, and Warner chopped it into incoherency, but much as I'd like another go at it, thinks that's about as good a movie version as we're going to get. Hard to imagine anything closer to the original series that would work out of context.
You're not going to get another Patrick Macnee, or another Diana Rigg.

How about The Shop on Main St. (1961)?:

I have watched TCM since the 90s and they never showed a movie newer than 25 years old. That was their original policy.
Then the policy changed. Might as well rename TCM as “HBO” is they’re going to show new stuff.
As JamesJazzguitar says, this is simply not true and has been demonstrated innumerable times. You walk in a line of posters who have been foretelling the immanent demise of TCM for over fifteen years. But TCM is still doing what is has always done from day one. Showing movies of all times, and repeating them to the point of nausea. There's nothing new in what you say, and nothing substantive.

Can't think of any. Too bleak.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

It's been some time since I read the book (time to read it again!), but I recall Quasimodo with Frollo atop Notre Dame, seeing him laughing at Esmeralda dangling on the gallows, then in a rage gabbing and tossing him off the building. I don't recall his dying, tho.
