Also love TOG but have not seen "Hopscotch" with Matthau so will watch. Thanks! All three of these films are quite different and equally good. Though I'd say TUNES OF GLORY is my fave of the bunch. Neame lived to 99 and he made some extraordinary motion pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopBilled Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 He's actually so great at being a heel that I love seeing him in anything where he is dastardly and nasty! Yes. He had considerable dramatic range. Of course, Richard Carlson will never get a tribute of any kind on TCM because the programmers seem too dazzled by Cary Grant and the big name stars. (It would be nice if they were reading this and proved me wrong!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might follow up this double feature with a PVR recorded movie I have of Ford's. Either 3:10 to Yuma or The Teahouse of the August Moon depending upon what mood I am in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pick 3:10 TO YUMA (but that's because I lived in Yuma, Arizona for almost ten years!). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a great film. 3:10 to Yuma is probably the one I'll pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessieB Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I have been watching TCM faithfully for the past 10 years, and I have yet to see the movie "Harvey" with Jimmy Stewart. Have they ever showed it? I have noticed they always reference it in documentaries, but I haven't seen it and want to badly. Another film I have been dying to see is "long days journey into night" (i think thats right) with Katherine Hepburn. Why are there some films that are definitely classic greats that don't get shown. In the past 4 years I have only seen two showings of "Sunset Blvd" and "Breakfast at Tiffany's" It's always the same few movies shown over and over. Don't get me wrong if I love a move, I can watch it over and over and over again. I would, however, love to see these other films as part of the normal line-up. Any thoughts.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HARVEY is a Universal picture and it has not aired on TCM in a long time. The other two films, SUNSET BOULEVARD and BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S, are Paramount pictures and as you noted they have aired (as part of the Essentials series). Most of the Universal, Paramount and Republic films are outside the TCM/Turner library. Fox and Columbia pictures show up occasionally. Usually the MGM, WB, RKO and UA titles are the ones you see aired and re-aired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
