Dish of the Day (A Long Good Friday Edition)
Just some film musings of a more succinct, spontaneous and sometimes seditious nature:
Friday, May 12, 2023
Today on TCM:
A film well worth seeing is Network (1976), previously reviewed here. This “mad as hell” exposé of just how far some TV executives will go to exploit for profit a former news anchor’s severe “on the air” mental breakdown, will itself air on TCM Friday, May 12 at (early morning) 12:45 am PDT.
Immediately following Network, is Alfred Hitchcock's dazzling thriller, Foreign Correspondent (1940), previously reviewed here. His main character’s precarious globe trotting assignment will begin Friday, May 12 at (early morning) 3 am PDT.
