Barton_Keyes Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 Thanks Barton. I think it's Alice Guy Blache (no 'n') for the first one. Yes it is. Thanks for pointing that out. I've edited the original post to reflect that spelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barton_Keyes Posted August 14, 2015 Author Share Posted August 14, 2015 As per the latest updates to the TCM schedule, FRIDA (2002) has been added to the schedule on October 29, bumping up I AM SAM (2001) into the early hours of October 30. I have taken the opportunity to edit the original post to reflect this programming change and to indicate the name of each director TCM is spotlighting in this series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
