Re: Vietnam War essentially ignored - Again!
TCM is mostly a studio-era movie channel. Most of the Vietnam war films were released after the end of the studio-era. Also, many are anti-war films, and it is my understanding most Americans view the Vietnam war as a misguided (at best), conflict by the US government. Thus, showing such films on Me...

As part of TCM's Memorial Day Weekend Marathon theme, the film has Charlton Heston playing an Army colonel and doctor who returns home to Pennsylvania on leave after servin...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Hey Ritchie, the Yankees took two today. "Aw, the Giants are gonna be in the cellar! In the cellar!" "Hey Lou, turn on the Dodger game" And this was just two years before both the Giants and the Dodgers left for California. Yea, the Giants and Dodgers have always been one of spo...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
MARTY tonight. "A college girl -- one step from the street!" That is only the case if one is a kicker for the K.C. Chiefs. One who is "straight" supposedly, but I'm not convinced. https://www.current-affairs.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Harrison-Butker.png I'm not convinced an...

Re: I Just Watched...
I just watched Cheyenne, episode Fury at Rio Hondo. This was a remake of Hawks\Bogie's To Have and Have Not. Most of the dialog, as well as associated action, was scene-for-scene \ word-for-word. There was the two women (Bacall and Moran), as well as the sidekick (Brennan). The setting was the Mexic...

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???
By the "library," do they mean Watch TCM? That is what I thought they were referring to - WatchTCM currently has the movie available to watch. Some of the providers also have an 'on demand' area where films from TCM are posted. I assume that is what they meant. If that is the case, I wond...

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???
Anyone want to bet 40 Guns will be rescheduled posthaste? I highly doubt it. 40 Guns is a Fox now Disney film. But they paid to broadcasat it and it never aired. You could be right; Here is what someone just posted at the other movie website: I just visited the TCM library. FORTY GUNS is on the lib...

Re: SPORTS
Oh wait, I remember now. Some folks are sticklers for staying on topic. Jimi and Willy are not really sports figures, but I have a feeling the two wouldn’t mind a bit if they were made sport of. Well my L.A. Dodgers are playing good but their travel schedule is messed up. I.e. they play a few home ...

Re: SPORTS
Well at least the cheating Houston Astros are out. If AZ beats Philly in game 7, that would be something. James Jazz Guitar. How you making out man? I was listening to some Jimi Hendrix the other day, and I thought about you. Let’s see, yeah the song was Hey Joe. He wrote that song, no? Hendrix did...

Re: AFI's 25 GREATEST MOVIE MUSICALS OF ALL TIME
All in all, this is the best list from AFT I've ever seen. Sure, it's not mine, but it's not heavily weighted toward recent films, and it includes some essential films. I also was surprised that there were less than a handful of post-studio-era films on this list. While musical is my least favorite...

Sessue Hayakawa also plays foreign characters. The other night when TCM showed Daughter of the Dragon, Hayakawa played a Chinese detective.
