Now that TCM has saved all the old films, has expanded it's broadcast library and continues to find footage to films thought to be lost forever, the true lost classics are the 1970s made-for-television films. Come on TCM start saving those! I mean, how many times can you show Singin' In the Rain?

Posted: 7/27/08 at 11:03pmAs many times as they like as far as I'm concerned.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Speaking of classic made-for-TV '70s movies... anyone remember "The People?"
I saw it when I was a kid, and remembered it for YEARS, after only one viewing.
I finally tracked it down on VHS a few years ago. It was actually released for a short while, but it's a terrible, fuzzy print. At least I got to see it again, and it's still a good movie!
It's about this Shaker-type community, living in the woods. They have very set ways... and then a teacher comes to town (Kim Darby) to teach the children... and she discovers they all have supernatural powers. It's their big town "secret." Turns out, they're actually aliens from another planet!
A very cool movie that also starred William Shatner and Diane Varsi (Peyton Place). And one of the girls from Eight Is Enough, when she was REALLY young. It was directed by John Korty (Miss Jane Pitman). The flying scenes in the woods are really cool.
TCM should restore that and show it!

I haven't watched Mr. Deeds Goes to Town in many years, but I used to watch it with a particular set of friends about every-other week. It is just as wonderful as I remember it. Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur are splendid...and what a cast of character actors!
Later tonight The Shop Around the Corner is on. Any movie with Margaret Sullavan is aces in my book.

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

Johnboy2, TCM is not even CLOSE to saving all the old movies. there are still hundreds of silents to be restored, and thousands of movies from the 1930's and 40's to be restored and released on DVD before they start looking into the 1970's.
They already play way too may 1970's movies on that channel, IMO.
And I believe all those videotapes in people's closets containing TV movies and special episodes from the 1970's aren't rotting away half as fast as the film reels from the 1910-1930's that are turning to dust as we speak.

Thanks for the tip! Alas, I'm at work tonight, so that one might be a rental. 
I love the Hitchcock marathons. I did go and catch the end of Notorious tonight. Ingrid Bergman is just luminous in anything.

Oooh! A wonderful birthday gift! Thanks, TCM!!
Mon, Oct 20 (the overnight spillover):
1:00/2:00 am: Eyes Without A Face on TCM. Georges Franju’s horror classic that is guaranteed to give you the creeping heebie-jeebies. It's also well-written, well-shot, and well-acted, so what are you waiting for?
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
