Bogie56 Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 Saturday, April 18 What, no Popeye? No Peter Bogdanovich?

This is the second day in a row that TCM has thrown out the original schedule. It's because they replaced this weekend's schedule with the "TCM Classic Film Festival - Home Edition" programming. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed it when it aired on LUPE VELEZ day one SUTS and was bummed. I adore her and, frankly, I like LEE TRACY an awful lot as well- he plays awful people so endearingly.

Bogie56 Posted April 24, 2020 Author Share Posted April 24, 2020 Saturday, April 25 10 a.m. Problem Pappy (1941). 5:45 p.m. A Face In the Crowd (1957). A loudmouth populist enters politics and somehow hoodwinks unsuspecting Americans. Unbelievable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CinemaInternational Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Cookie (1989) is the second half of TCM Underground tonight and its worth a look. Not a major film, but nice sharp playing by Emily Lloyd, Peter Falk, Dianne Wiest and Brenda Vaccaro makes it a fun little comedy. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they just wanted another Susan Seidelman film to pair with the more appropriate Smithereens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desperately Seeking Susan would have been the best fit for Smithereens of her others thematically, but that too was still a major studio production with recognizable names. Last time they aired Smithereens they teamed it up with her Making Mr. Right, also a major studio film. However, all of them do feel smaller and more Underground than She-Devil. (the prospect of Meryl Streep in a film shown on TCM Underground is very .... odd) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesJazGuitar Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 One Robert Ryan film TCM will be showing is House of Bamboo. This 20th Century foreign noir film has a fine cast, with top notch Japaneses actors. Ryan plays a character named Sandy Dawson. I don't wish to give the plot away but Sandy's love interest in this film are all over the map. HOUSE OF BAMBOO is airing on TCM this Sunday evening. That's tomorrow night. It's part of a theme called Tokyo Crime. PS: Thanks to Top Billed for tipping me off. I had posted that I wished TCM would show House of Bamboo just a few days ago, without knowing it was scheduled for this Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
