Most of these 50 yr. old B movies are in the public domain anyways.

According to Moviecollector's database, it has been on TCM 11 times. The last time was January 2017.

Admiral Ushakov (1953) - This film is about Admiral Ushakov from the 18th century. The film follows his court intrigues, his exploits in the military (including ridding a town of the plague and building ships) and his fighting in Crimea. This one has nice recreations and nice costumes. I recommend it.

Grayson isn't a bad choice. The Desert Song is always a treat. I wish they showed the Vagabond King too. I don't think I've seen that one before.

Mexicanos al grito de Guerra (1943) - I saw this one almost a decade ago when TCM was showing Mexican films because of the 100th anniversary of the Revolution. In this film a Mexican patriot and the daughter of a French ambassador of Napoleon (who was occupying the country at the time) fall in love. I don't remember much of this film but I remember the funny and clumsy way Napoleon III was portrayed. Napoleon III tries to tax every window and door! (not sure of the historical accuracy of that) This film is decent and worth a look.

Zou-Zou (1934) - Another Josephine Baker musical. Baker plays a woman who grew up in the circus. Her friend she grew up with is accused of murder and she must set things straight. This one had a few good numbers and is worth a look.

The French Way (1940) - This one was a TCM Import a few months ago and I saw it then. This film was shot in 1940 but was only released in 1945 after WWII. Josephine Baker is a singer who helps two lovers get together. The lovers' parents hate each other so they have to hide and sneak around. All this while bombs are dropping and people flee to the air raid shelters. This was an okay film. Worth viewing for any Baker fans.

This is a very beautiful movie. I don't usually cry at movies but I cry at the end of this one.

A Small Town Idol - condensed version of the 1921 Mack Sennett film. Ben Turpin is a small town man who is falsely accused of bigamy by a romantic rival so he leaves to Hollywood. He comes back as a star but the villain is still there and won't let him have a break. This one had some funny gags and looked well shot. Unfortunately the full length version does not appear to be online or available anywhere. I hope it turns up some time though.

The Mouse That Roared Next: non-musical with musical sequences

Those films are good but they cost a lot of money so I wouldn't wait to see them on TCM any time soon.

I think I saw Odd Obsession last time it was on TCM too but forgot about it so it may not be on my list. Didn't really care for it either way.

I don't think he's doing it on purpose or trying to be rude. I think he can't help it.

3.) Conductor Richard Hageman, who played Carlo Santi in the film, actually knew Enrico Caruso and led several performances with him at the Metropolitan Opera, including the 1918 War Relief Benefit re-created in the film.

Philosophy and Truth, Jean Flechet, France (1965) Philosophy and Truth - "Postmodernists in their cars and libraries getting coffee" is a good way of putting this documentary. The film revolves around a discussion of truth, philosophy, the grand epoch, and how they all form together in totality. Among the philosophers present in the discussion/ interview are Foucault, Badiou, Dreyfus, Hyppolite, Canguilhem and Ricoeur. This film is largely static shots but the intro and scene changes reminded me heavily of the French new wave films of the era, particularly with the soundtrack and rapid cuts. I recommend this one to anyone interested in postmodernism. This film is Foucault's only screen credit on IMDB btw and he only speaks in the first few minutes. He did not seem too interested in the conversation as he was more interested on how to work with philosophy. The rest seemed to question his opinion of discourse as a philosophical truth. Overall I give this one a 6/10. It is a decent overview of postmodern thought but nothing particularly interesting or engaging. I saw this one on YouTube. It is up with English closed captions.

Violent Midnight (a father's murder is labelled an accident but is revealed to have a different cause at the very end of the movie) Next: set in Tahiti

I don't think so. In Jason X, he uses axes, knives and even skewers people on futuristic piston looking things in the spaceship.

I'm glad you liked it. It's probably the best "red western." I agree that the scenes with Vereschagin, Petrukha and Gyulchatai in particular were very dark but moving.

I actually really like this series. Just watching an evil man stalking some clueless people for an hour and a half is actually pretty fun. I like the first few films of the series best but of the newer ones, Jason X has some charm to it. It really satirizes the earlier films and the slasher genre in general.
