CAHIERS DU HOWERY presents Turner Classic Movies genre-film selections for October 2022
CAHIERS DU HOWERY
presents
Turner Classic Movies genre-film selections
for October 2022
All times on the calendar below are Eastern.
Movies in the so-bad-they’re-good category are indicated by a 💣.
In this and five more weekly emails throughout the month of “Hower-een” (as a young friend put it), I will send notes on the pictures, some written by me, others quoted from books and magazines in my home collection, and still others from library sources and the web. Occasionally, these later emails may include features not listed on the calendar below (last-minute additions, in other words).
Red type in the emailed attachments designates new reviews and other new text.
The rest is more or less recycled from previous years.
TCM may alter its schedule at the last minute. (In fact, it has done so any number of times since I started preparing these critiques.)
Alas, this household is without cable TV, so I won’t be able to enjoy these October TCM presentations at the same time you do.
You can find the daily sked here: https://www.tcm.com/schedule/ The monthly sked is here: https://www.tcm.com/schedule-monthly/
