rayallen Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Has TCM ever devoted a day to movies about art and artists? *The Agony and the Ecstasy*, *Lust for Life*, etc. Also, can anyone suggest or recommend other titles of this ilk? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smileys Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I did a Programming Challenge years ago about tormented artists that included those two, along with *Rembrandt* , *Moulin Rouge* , and *The Moon and Sixpence* . TCM has shown a trio before, but I don't recall a full day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValentineXavier Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 *The Horse's Mouth* and *F for Fake* come to mind right away, but there are many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swithin Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 *The Light that Failed* (1939) is one of my favorites. I also like *Carrington* (1995) very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
