Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???
Not always. Just depends on their contract. A typical contract allows for X number of airings within a time period. The streaming rights would be a separate part of the contract. I agree, but I think the question was if they could show a movie an 'extra' time to make up for the failure. If they had...

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???
The same thing happened with Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid - after the failed broadcast it was later posted to WatchTCM along with the introduction and wrap-up. I would imagine that TCM has to prepare the video for streaming and it may be a separate production path. It is possible that this path worked ...

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???
As cinemainternational points out, the recent movie issues on TCM were very similar ( Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid and Forty Guns ) - in both cases the correct introduction was shown, followed by a period of a dark screen, followed by a replacement movie and other shorts etc. to fill the allotted time....

Re: Noir Alley
I looked at Lauren Bacall's autobiography By Myself and Then Some , and she does confirm her wedding date as May 21, 1945. Following her wedding in Ohio, Bogart and Bacall returned to California, and shortly thereafter Bacall began working on the film Confidential Agent which was released in Novembe...

Re: Noir Alley
I heard Eddie say in the intro to DARK PASSAGE that Bogart and Bacall were married in 1947 when the year was actually 1945. I hope this does not sound like nitpicking. It really annoys me that many of these hosts naively rely on the TCM research department to get their facts correct. It's just slop...

Re: Noir Alley
I still say Eddie should consider making that one-month-only Neo-Noir thing he did with Ben Mankiewicz last year a regular thing, but without Ben. Now, no offense here meant to the nasally one mind you. It's just that I think Eddie should still host his presentations alone. Maybe switch off each ot...

Re: Noir Alley
This past weekend there was a similar situation with Silent Sunday Nights - Jacqueline Stewart presented The Merry Widow (1925) with nearly the same script she used from a showing in May of 2021. I haven't been following Silent Sunday Nights enough to know if this is just a coincidence, or if someth...

Re: Coming up on TCM...
So sorry I missed this. I love Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid. I must not have checked the tv schedule that night. :( Even if you had remembered you would not have been able to see it. There was a glitch in the video on TCM that evening so it was replaced with another showing of Carnival Story . TCM has...

Re: Noir Alley
Use of "one of" and "contemporary" gives one a lot of wiggle room! Unless I missed it, I don't think Eddie said anything this week to further explain his serial killer statement. It was pretty much a repeat of the introduction he gave when Follow Me Quietly was shown on Noir All...

Re: Noir Alley
To represent Eddie properly, his actual quote was that Follow Me Quietly is "one of the first contemporary serial killer movies made in Hollywood."
I'm sure he will say more this weekend.

Re: Noir Alley
Noir Alley this weekend is featuring Follow Me Quietly (1949). Eddie mentioned last week that the film is one of the first to present the concept of a serial killer. At 60 minutes long, it is also one of the shortest films shown on Noir Alley. Eddie has previously introduced the film on the weekend ...
