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 M...

Re: July 2024 Schedule Posted, Eva Marie Saint is SOTM
TCM will do anything to show North by Northwest ! Yea, we get North by Northwest again, as well as having to hear Berry-Berry in All Fall Down. I love ALL FALL DOWN. https://i.imgur.com/5kBU3MW.jpg I like All Fall Down. What I don't like is when Angela or Brandon say Berry-Berry. One Berry is enoug...

Re: July 2024 Schedule Posted, Eva Marie Saint is SOTM
They have a lot of TBA on the Eva Marie Saint days, does that mean they don't know which films they will show yet? I hope one of them is A Hatful Of Rain (1957) When TCM first posts their schedule, they tend to not list the films they are leasing from other studios, so these become the TBA titles. ...

Re: Vietnam War essentially ignored - Again!
There are older Vietnam war movies, such as China Gate (1957), Flame over Vietnam (1957) and The Quiet American (1958). 1978's Go Tell the Spartans (Burt Lancaster) is one of my favorites. TCM is also showing a goodly number of fairly recent movies of all types these days, so going back to the 80's...

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...

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...
