lydecker Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Begging the list's pardon, could anyone enlighten me as to whether (or not -- I tend to think not) any of these films have ever appeared on TCM: The Shawshank Redemption You've Got Mail American Gigolo The Jackpot (1951) Many thanks!

Sepiatone Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I think THE JACKPOT has, I can't be sure.... And I might be confusing it with something else! Sepiatone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at several Now Playing guides and didn't see a trace of "You've Got Mail." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at several Now Playing guides and didn't see a trace of "You've Got Mail." I can't find You've Got Mail in any NP guides for 2014, and if you look in the entry for it in the TCM database, the only comment about it is from October of 2009, a month when it's also not listed in NP. My guess is that it either played way long ago or not at all. OTOH Sleepless in Seattle has played at least 3 or 4 times in the past year or two.

I don't have any recollection of You've Got Mail ever playing on TCM which is why I asked. I swear it hasn't but I would like to believe it has. However, NP guides are not infallible since they are printed a month or 2 before the films actually air and, as we know, changes to the schedules happen all the time. If anybody else can shed some light on this, chime in. Lydecker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, AMC has the rights, and seems to show the movie every few months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was probably on one of those Friday nights when it was chosen by one of the special Friday Night hosts. I can't swear for sure it was on a Friday, but I believe it was. Or maybe it was Oscar month. I guess I remember it because it was so unusual to see such a recent movie on the schedule. I love it when movies made after the 60's happen on TCM.

Lydecker If You've Got Mail had played at anytime other than during a World Series or NFL playoff game, at any point since late September of 2009, the chances are 99% I would've recorded it, since from that time to now I've recorded nearly 4000 features. But in checking my database I don't see any record of it, which leads me to think that if it had ever shown, it would've been before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
