I just saw a commercial on Turner Classic Movies for The Catered Affair. It's airing this Sunday at 7:45am. A little early for a Sunday but that's what DVRs are for. I've never seen the film before and I'd imagine many of you haven't either since it's not available on DVD (yet). So I thought I'd let everyone know so they can set their DVRs/VCRs if they want to.

They're showing this a lot. I've come across it at least 3 times since Harvey went on for the guest programming month.

Be warned: It's much different from the musical. The bachelor uncle's straight and gets married to a widow!

It's a charming film. Bette Davis is superb and breaks your heart. And it's fun to see a young Debbie Reynolds! She's really good too. Light hearted and warm. Barry Fitzgerald is hilarious as the Irish Uncle who feels left out. Definitely worth viewing.
