Tuesday, May 9, 2023

Today on TCM:

Preston Sturges' masterpiece Sullivan's Travels (1941) is a previous Blu-ray recommendation here. His comedic, albeit enlightening, adventures will begin Tuesday, May 9 at 5 pm PDT. 

Joel McCrea, Veronica Lake

Another top of the line screwball comedy released the same year as Sullivan’s Travels and, even more remarkably, from the same writer (co-writer here along with Monckton Hoffe) / director is The Lady Eve (1941) reviewed here. See for yourself on Tuesday, May 9 at 8:30 pm PDT.
