PATRICIA COLLINGE starred in "THE LITTLE FOXES" (1941) with Bette Davis.
I loved her role as Aunt Birdie in that movie and thought her performance was brillant.

I disagree. I would think that most TCM viewers are fans primarily of old movies. There are only so many hours in the day for working people, and they don't have time to be big fans of both classic movies and more recent movies.....
financeu.......I Agree with you 100%
Precisely what I have been trying to point out all along !

Yeah...it's only a matter of time before they start running commercials for Cialis !
That should go over Big (pardon the pun), for most of the crowd here !

fxreyman, if these are the movies (the ones you listed ) you want to watch and know that most are either not shown or harldy ever shown on TCM, then why do you bother with TCM?
I would assume that TCM must be a great disappointment for you, under the circumstances !
Twink
PS I saw Pleasantville Once and I was greatly disappointed as it was another one of these movies that had a 'lot of hype' and then turned out to be a let down, which happens more often then not post 60s.
Certainly NOT a movie that I would want to watch over and over again like oh, let's say DOUBLE INDEMNITY maybe !
The thing is, I find with most 30s/40s movies, the more you watch them over again, you always catch something you missed before. The same cannot be said for post 60s movies.
Moonstruck ?...REALLY?!
Did you see AVITAR, talk about a 'lot of hype' ! I returned it to the vidio store half way through watching it, what a 'let down' !
The Blind Side (2009), Yes, it was good (based on a true story), but would not see it more then twice.
AS GOOD AS IT GETS with Jack Nicholson is one of the few post 60s movies that I enjoy watching over and over again.
....and, I'd have to say CHICAGO only because my nephew was Assistant to the Producer. Part of it was filmed in Toronto and Rene Zellweger had diner at the family home in Torono.

> {quote:title=fxreyman wrote:}{quote}How can you be sure? How do you know who the average TCM viewer is? For all you know the average TCM viewer watches all films from all time periods. I fall into that category. As do many others from what I have read over the years.
Certainly TCM 'KNOWS' who their Typical Viewer is and base the Movies they show accordingly. Given that they show More 30s/40s movies then post 60s, there's your answer !

Well, I'm sure there are people who would watch the movies you named multiple times, However, I do not Believe that the TYPICAL TCM Viewer would watch the mentioned movies MORE then most 30s/40s movies ! :0

Of course I used THE WOMEN as an example since it was being shown today, (but you know, 3 or 4 times is actually pretty good !), however, I am Sure there are a great many other 30s/40s movies that you have watched multiple times and much more so then a lot of post 60s movies, right ?
C'mon now, Dargou..be honest

Yes, they are showing LAWRENCE OF ARABIA 'Again'! tonight at 8PM (Prime Time) and they showed GREAT EXPECTATIONS (1946) at 6AM today.
A Prime example of what you have been saying all along, the better less shown movies are played durning the wee hours of the day! ( I realize GE was shown the other day, nevertheless, how often has LOA been shown as oposed to Great Expectations ?)
