“Propel me, please, Jim.” Fabulous line before she goes for a little ride in her library. #MurderAhoy #TCMParty #MissMarple

When did #TCM start putting these kinds of warnings on their site? It’s right under the time. #TCMParty

I just keep thinking Ar-Bo-Gast if he’d made it out of #Psycho alive. #TheTakingOfPelham123 #TCMParty.

Okay this show is AWESOME. Women in midlife, do yourself a favor and watch it!

For that dramatic music played just now while George goes through the woods in #APlaceInTheSun, composer Franz Waxman cribbed his own music from #RearWindow. Maybe that’s because Thorwald is in this movie as well! #RaymondBurr. #TCMParty

Reposting this for the evening crowd watching #OnTheWaterfront and #AplaceInTheSun. Both have terrific scores! And #ShellyWinters having bad luck again on a boat. #TCMParty

Happy 80th Birthday to #DollyParton! 🦋 I've written two books about her songwriting: Unlikely Angel: The Songs of Dolly Parton (2020) Dolly Parton's Jolene (2025) @illinoispress.bsky.social @academic.oup.com #HamiltonCollege www.press.uillinois.edu/books/?id=p0... global.oup.com/academic/pro...

"All About Trump" (2026) From Follies of God on FB.... 🎬😜🎥🤪

These are wonderful novels!

This plodding musical opening is like a riff on the Dies Irae. #Diabolique #TCMParty

I just tuned in to #TheyMadeHerASpy, and I had to look twice at the lead actress, #SallyEilers. I thought for a minute #EveArden was in this film. I could imagine that she would’ve looked a lot like that as a very young actress. #TCMParty.

Hart must’ve run into these women. This is a really funny feminist spoof from the 1980s. #CannibalWomenInTheAvocadoJungleOfDeath. #9To5 #TCMParty youtu.be/qVjGAxuijeY?...

Hey #TCMParty folks. Did any of y’all see #9To5:TheMusical on Broadway? It was really good. Very much the film on stage. #9To5 youtu.be/ZXnW7KX4JZE?...

This is such a funny segment of the movie. Especially when #DollyParton talks to them from the trunk of the car, asking them to come and take a look. She’s very droll. #9To5 #TCMParty

These bloopers are great. Check out what happens to #DollyParton at @ :12. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 #9To5 #TCMParty youtu.be/7jtTQQAzAE4?...

Atta girl! #9To5 #TCMParty

Oooooh! #LesDiaboliques next week! So good. And he's right about the heart-stopping ending. IYKYK. That movie scared the 💩 out of me! #NoirAlley #TCMParty

Wait! What?! What did he say at the counter? It was all muffled to me. #CrimeOfPassion #TCMParty #NoirAlley

This is an must-read breakdown of the shooting of Renee Good by a former FBI agent with actual FBI firearms training.

Every time they say Lt. Doyle, I think we're in #RearWindow and I'm wondering why Thorwald is in charge. #WendellCorey #CrimeOfPassion. #TCMParty #NoirAlley

This is a fun read about #CrimeOfPassion. #TCMParty #NoirAlley www.classicfilmnoir.com/2024/01/crim...

I've never seen #CrimeOfPassion. Wow - what a picture of mid-century gender roles. See also: Betty Friedan, *The Feminine Mystique.* #TCMParty #NoirAlley

He just said "right down the line." Wrong movie Bub. #CrimeOfPassion #DoubleIndemnity #TCMParty #NoirAlley

May 4, 1970. #Musicsky youtu.be/MN_9VqfVQ9c?...

Suppose we have a long flashback. #DoubleIndemnity #TCMParty

That music box that Nancy (as a child) knocked over plays the same tune that Rhoda played in #TheBadSeed as Leroy burned up. 🎹🔥 So that ups the creepy factor. #TheLocket #TCMParty

I found this when I was poking around for a helpful guide to all the flashbacks. I made the mistake of trying to multi-task during #TheLocket (and I've even seen it before!). haha. #TCMParty www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdhc...

Good lord - a cheesy remake of Tchaikovsky music at the end complete with crashing waves. Could it get more dopey and clichéd? #TCMParty #TheSecondWoman #NoirAlley

I LOVE the Flat Iron Building! #TCMParty #TheSecondWoman #NoirAlley

This film's score (Tchaikovsky's symphony 4, mvt 2 @ 20:17) hasn't used the most beautiful & moving part at 21:47. It starts out so hopeful and then falls back on itself, like it can't quite shake off the gloom. Gorgeous. 🎶 #TCMParty #TheSecondWoman #NoirAlley www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7G5...

The man, the prophet bsky.app/profile/did:...

This Tchaikovsky score in #TheSecondWoman reminds me of Dimitri Tiomkin's great acceptance speech at the 1955 #AcademyAwards. After the Bing/Bob schtick, Tiomkin comes on stage @2:00. What he says is priceless! Check it out! He'd won for #TheHighAndTheMighty #TCMParty www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVLT...

Driveway all shoveled! ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ Ready to settle down with #TheSecondWoman. 🎥 🍿 #TCMParty #NoirAlley

Anyone remember the great #DickVanDykeShow episode that uses #Rosebud as a great premise for a funny show? The payoff at the end is great! IYKYK #CitizenKane #TCMParty www.youtube.com/watch?v=LELO...

Posting this again because it’s just so perfect and funny. Spoilers if this is your first viewing of #MildredPierce. #DesigningWomen #TCMParty #JeanSmart is so perfect in that role. #AnnBlyth youtu.be/5L72YeEPldE?...

Chekhov’s slap: uttered by Bert. #MildredPierce #TCMParty

I love that sweet little house! #MildredPierce #TCMParty

To me, Joan Crawford is at the height of her beauty in #MildredPierce. #TCMParty

I taught this film once to my college students. They thought this scene was supposed to be comedy. All the big shadows and him running around the house. They totally thought it was played for laughs. 🤦‍♀️ #MildredPierce #TCMParty

I present the #cat semi colon (Cc @bcdreyer.social)

What a difference a few years makes. The opening music that starts the credits is in a really different style than the music of the first two. It closes out with the same music, but it starts with something that sounds like it’s heading toward the 1950s already. #TCMParty #TheThinMan #AnotherThinMan

That’s so funny! Asta losing his grip! 🐶 🤪 #TheThinMan #TCMParty #AfterTheThinMan

When did we stop saying susPECTS and start saying SUSpects? Around the time we stopped saying HOMEcide and started saying HAHmicide? #TheThinMan #TCMParty

Tonight is the start of Jean Arthur as #SOTM. The SOTM for February is *drumroll*… Bugs Bunny! #TCMParty

Huzzah. So say us all.

Just came across this 10yo treat by accident. Happy Impending, all! #TCMParty
