Monday, April 16 features a morning birthday mini-thon as the Little Tramp is gives over the bulk of the day to, erm, Peter Ustinov, who was also born April 16. Hadley (1942) at 12:45 pm The Adventures of Tartu (1943), 104 minute version at 2:15 followed by British 111 minute version Sabotage Agent at 4 pm the BUcquet schedule closes with Hepburn and Tracy in Without Love (1945) at 6 pm.īritish-born Bucquet died after a short illness on February 13, 1946. On Borrowed Time at 6:30 am We Who Are Young at 8:15 Kathleen (1941) at 9:45 The Penalty (1941) at 11:15 The War Against Mrs. TCM does not air any of those, but does celebrate Bucquet's birthday, Wednesday, April 10 with eight non-series films directed by Bucquet. On Borrowed TimeThe short directorial career of Harold S. I try to stick mainly to often forgotten daytime hours here, but wanted to mention the fine Hollywood double-feature airing Prime Time Sunday, April 15 with the 1937 A Star Is Born at 8 pm with a title that strongly influenced it, What Price Hollywood? (1932), following at 10 pm. It falls outside this chronological timetable but it's a shame Gentleman Jim (1942) doesn't make the cut. Monday, April 9 is Ward Bond day celebrating the 1903 birth of the popular character actor with 9 titles ranging from 1935-1940 that appear to have been picked out of a hat:īlack Fury (1935) at 6:30 am Devil Dogs of the Air (1935) at 8:15 Little Big Shot (1935) at 10:00 Murder in the Fleet (1935) at 11:30 Avenging Waters (1936) at 12:45 pm The Cattle Thief (1936) at 2:00 The Man Who Lived Twice (1936) at 3:15 Muss 'Em Up (1936) at 4:45 and Santa Fe Trail (1940) at 6:00 pm.

Clitterhouse (1938) at 5:15 and the baseball movie Big Leaguer (1953) at 6:45. Robinson features then continue with The Man With Two Faces (1934) at 12:45 pm The Whole Town's Talking (1935) at 2:00 The Last Gangster (1937) at 3:45 The Amazing Dr. The Kay Francis movies kick off at 6 am with A Notorious Affair (1930) Guilty Hands (1931) at 7:15 Transgression (1931) at 8:30 Jewel Robbery (1932) at 9:45 and finally I Loved A Woman with Kay and Edward G. Robinson with I Loved A Woman (1933) featuring both of them directly linking the pair at 11 am.
Here they are:įriday, April 6 splits the day between Kay Francis and Edward G. And just in case you're curious, common sense returns to TCM with the May-McCrea movies airing each Wednesday night throughout the month rather than being condensed into a single week as in April's Day offerings.īack to April. That will get some coverage in this space. TCM's Star of the Month for May is Joel McCrea. So if you love Doris Day then you might think April 2-April 6 is the best thing TCM has ever done, but if you're like me, well then, at least The Winning Team (1952) is part of the Day-celebration on April 4. TCM also gets a bit daring this month in confining its Star of the Month programming to a single week rather than spacing out their star coverage throughout the month. TCM's Star of the Month is Doris Day which has been very well received from what I've seen but personally makes me glad baseball season is here. They tend to interest me more because they're often lesser known and lesser shown titles.
I lean on the daytime features because those are less publicized than prime time programming.
Star of the Month (Week?): Doris DayTime to look at what caught my fancy in the April 2012 TCM Now Playing Guide.
