path40a Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 ... these films? If so, has it been a long time? Outward Bound The Mouthpiece Green Pastures Footlight Parade Destination Tokyo All of these are in their library, but I don't recall seeing them on the channel previously. There were a couple of others I found which I thought should be in the library, but aren't (The Stars Look Down, Night Moves, & Camelot). Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

pgm80s Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I know that I saw "Footlight Parade" on here about a year ago, and I'm sure that they would have played "Destination Tokyo" but not definite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moviejoe79 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I know that I've seen "Footlight Parade" as well. I remember it being on one morning along with a few other Berkeley films. And I would LOVE to see "Outward Bound" myself. Unfortunately there's a lot of films in TCM's library that they don't get around to showing, like most of Norma Shearer's.

nickdimeo Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Being the huge Beryl Mercer fan that I am (who isn't) I remember watching Outward Bound about six months ago on a night devoted to cruises that went wrong...Pacific Liner, and One Way Passage were the also shown. And I definely remember seeing Destination Tokyo on TCM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugonian Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Yes, TCM has shown all the movies mentioned, but only THE MOUTHPIECE (1932) hasn't been shown during the past five years. Would like to see that one brought back on the airwaves. FOOTLIGHT PARADE (1933) plays quite frequently, usually past the midnight hours, and OUTWARD BOUND (1930) played last summer, I believe, at about 6 a.m., as did THE GREEN PASTURES (1936). Since DESTINATION TOKYO (1943) is a 1940s movie, it may get more exposure than the older movies. But for now, THE MOUTHPIECE has yet to be shown on TCM during the 21st century.

marshald25 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 How about HIGH PRESSURE (1932) or PRIVATE DETECTIVE 62 (1933) with William Powell? THE DARK HOUSE (1932) or THE WORKING MAN (1933) with Bette Davis? WINNER TAKE ALL (1932) or HARD TO HANDLE (1933) with James Cagney? THE FAMOUS FERGUSON CASE (1932) or BLONDIE JOHNSON (1933) with Joan Blondell? MANDALAY (1934) or DR. MONICA (1934) with Kay Francis? Haven't seen these in years!

lugonian Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 To answer your second question, TCM has shown all the movies mentioned, but not lately, especially titles as THE WORKING MAN, THE DARK HORSE or HARD TO HANDLE, which were frequent revivals during the early days of TCM, but for now, haven't aired on that station during the 21st century. Even as recently as when TCM had James Cagney as Star of the Month, his 1933 comedy, HARD TO HANDLE was not included among his list of movie credits. THE MOUTHPIECE is another exceptional film with Warren William in fine form, but it's been a long while since it aired as well. We can only hope on some surprises when TCM starts showing the movies it hasn't aired in over five years. This would give those a chance to watch the movies they haven't yet seen, especially those who have recently acquired the service of TCM, which premiered in 1994. Over ten years of excellent service. So many movies, so little time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
