Love This – TCM
.
I’m so grateful for Turner Classic Movies. I love movies, and because of TCM, I always have something interesting to watch and have learned a great deal about classic films. I enjoy the introductions by Robert Osborne and Ben Mankiewicz, and features like The Essentials, TCM Guest Programmer, TCM Underground and Star of the Month have introduced me to films I might otherwise have never seen. I also enjoy watching the original trailers and shorts. TCM has a wonderful website, cool blog MovieMorlocks.com and a monthly viewer’s guide call Now Playing.
The TCM Event Series is my newest favorite things. Every month, TCM hosts a classic film viewing at select movie theatres. Fortunately, a theatre close to me is showing these movies. In August, I went to see Singin’ In The Rain and it was magical seeing it on the big screen. As an added bonus, the movies include a special introduction and interview. September’s movie is The Birds.

Gah! The Birds still creeps me out! I wonder what it would be like to see it on a big screen, though…
Mum likes old films too. Her favourite is Brief Encounter. (And possibly Breakfast at Tiffany’s (though I think this may have more to do with Audrey Hepburn than the steller acting…!) Deccy x
I love Audrey too!
TCM is our favorite channel!! Love the old movies and would love to see them on the big screen!
There’s one channel I never seem to watch. When I saw your title, I thought it was about traditional Chinese medicine 😉
So funny you say that! When I was searching for the TCM logo, I kept getting “traditional Chinese medicine” pictures.
Oh wow, that looks great. Enjoy all your favourite old films!

Forgot how awesome TCM is. Need to set the DVR. Cool Daily Inspiration shot. Are they always shots you’ve taken yourself?
Thank you. Yes, the photos I use for the “Daily Inspiration” quote are my photos. I started “Daily Inspiration” because I love quotes and I wanted to challenge myself to take more photos and learn more about photography.
Personally AMC is my favorite because it is my initials lol.
“Rear Window” and anything Hitchcock are movies I can watch over and over. And “Citizen Kane”. The cinematography is amazing!
The next movie in the TCM Event Series is The Birds!
My husband and I are big fans of TCM too. I especially love being able to see films commercial free.

This is the “rule” in our house too. Fortunately, the menopause keeps me up later than the hubby, so that’s when I get to control the TV.
