TCM's 31 Days of Oscar Week-Remaining movies posted

February is my favorite month to watch TV because of this.

Thanks for the link. I usually look two or three days ahead in the program guide so I can set the dvr to record what I want to watch, now I can go through the whole month at once.

ETA: Second linky no worky, but I went to the tcm website and the link there no worky either.

Thanks for the link. Seems pretty cool.

The Naked City is on tonight. Guess I'll get my Sunday Noir fix after all

I only know Lassie Come Home.

Recorded The Naked City last night and will watch it in the coming days. Always heard it was a top 5-ish noir.

All times are Eastern.

quote:

---

Sometimes I ask myself, when did I have so much time in my life to watch so many of these movies.

It was my mother I think. When my Dad used to travel I was the only kid in the family to stay up late and watch old movies with her back in the day ... even as a little kid, I was the night owl, like her.

You know, like lots of posters here, including you, I actually remember a time when your selection of movies was generally heavily limited by what video stores around you carried. (Hell, quite a few posters here probably remember the time before home video became a major thing, which I don't.) Even the biggest stores generally didn't have a particularly wide variety, especially not by today's Amazon/Netflix standards. There simply wasn't a particularly wide variety of movies released on home video because they were bulky, time-consuming to make, and chosen almost entirely for profitability. This was pretty much mostly true right up until the late 90s. Despite this, the idea that there was a time when I frequently had to be lucky and catch a movie on regular TV or one of the premium movie back then already feels alien to me, as if it was something that happened in an era before I was born.
