Escape to the Movies

The events of current times can be overwhelming and with the multiple outlets for news, sometimes its good to just escape, and one of my ways is TCM (Turner Classic Movies).  I have be a fan of the channel for many years. I mostly watch movies from the 1920's up to late 1960's.  

The genres I follow:

  • Westerns
  • Drama
  • Film Noir
  • Military
  • Sports
  • Comedy
  • Silent
And to just name a few of my favorites movies

  • The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962)
  • 12 angry Men (1957)
  • His Kind of Woman (1951)
  • The D.I. (1957)
  • Knute Rockne All American (1940)
  • You Can't Take It with You (1938)
  • Safety Last (1923)

TCM does an excellent job with introductions and details about the directors, actors, and actresses. The programming is all about the classics - a lost art in film making, they don't make them like they the like they used to
