Dish of the Day
Just some film musings of a more succinct, spontaneous and sometimes seditious nature:
Monday, August 24, 2026
Today on TCM:
Director Otto Preminger’s classic, 1944’s Laura, is the exacting director’s slick and assured amalgamation of mystery (whodunnit) and film noir (obsessive desire, gruesome murder etc) elements. This film was briefly reviewed here. Included is a comparison between the detective played by Dana Andrews and James Stewart’s retired investigator in Vertigo. Laura will come to life on TCM Monday, August 24th at 5 pm PDT.
