TopBilled Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Ordinary People (1980) dropped for Thoroughly Modern Millie (1967) I'm a bit disappointed about that. ORDINARY PEOPLE is a great film, and TCM tends to overplay the other title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barton_Keyes Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 While the hosts for this series of programming have not yet been announced, I can report that TCM's Illeana Douglas will return as the primary host, and she will be joined by a series of special guest co-hosts throughout the month. These will include film historian Cari Beauchamp and Emmy-winning actress Dana Delaney. Illeana Douglas (at left), host of TCM's Trailblazing Women festival, introduces a screening of THE PHILADELPHIA STORY alongside occasional TCM guest host Madeleine Stowe at the TCM Classic Film Festival on March 29, 2015.
