FlyBackTransformer Posted September 5, 2013 Author Share Posted September 5, 2013 How about Lawrence of Arabia or Doctor Zhivago at five or six in the morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepiatone Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 They probably chose that time slot because it's the only one they HAVEN'T showed it in this year! So far... Sepiatone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dargo2 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Well, at least we know... "Whenever TCM decides to show this movie, I'll be there, Ma." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownGoesFrazier Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 But films from the '30sand '40s are typically shown much more predominantly during weekay days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the great things about TCM is the fine job it does at scheduling great films at all hours so people can enjoy them whenever they want. To somebody (and there are a lot of them) who works evenings or overnight early morning or mid-afternoon IS prime time for them and they deserve the best films just like anybody else.

Sepiatone Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Back when I hired in to GM(1971), I worked the afternoon shift. The only movies I could see when I got home from work were CHARLIE CHAN and those old, japanese STARMAN flicks. But, I'm not complaining. They WERE kinda fun...
