Today on TCM:
Ikiru (1952) is cinema's most deeply contemplative statement on the meaning of life and one of the Top Ten World Cinema Treasures. This odyssey of discovery is taken by actor Takashi Shimura vividly playing a Japanese Government bureaucrat after learning he has terminal cancer. Ikiru will be shown on Monday, June 12 at (early morning) 2:15 am PDT.
TCM's current monthly schedule can be confirmed by clicking on the above image. For those who live in parts of the U.S. other than the western region, the time zone can be adjusted in the upper right-hand corner of TCM's programme.
