#NowWatching THE LAST PICTURE SHOW (1971). Damn this film, hits on a deep level. Sam the Lion's monologue is absolutely haunting.

I've seen 8 1/2 many times, but tonight for the first time I realized that Madeleine Lebeau (who played Yvonne in CASABLANCA) is also in Fellini's film. #NowWatching 8 1/2

#NowWatching Fellini's masterpiece: 8 1/2 (1963). Why? It's filled with lovely women.

I can’t imagine two women I would rather hang out with in a cocktail lounge than #EveArden and #BarbaraStanwyck. #tcmparty @tcmtv.bsky.social @tcmparty.bsky.social @tcmfans.bsky.social

Roger Corman Friday Nights on @tcmtv.bsky.social ?!? #TCMParty

Goodness!! Thank you, @tcmtv.bsky.social for that spotlight short on "Deep in the Heart of Texas"...and special thanks for adding the film title and release date on each and every clip. Bravo!! #TCMParty

I'd love to memorize the Gettysburg Address. I mean, it's only 10 sentences. #TCMParty

what the heck are MOB, Ann Sothern, and Cagney doing in this war propaganda short?! #TCMParty

recording 8 1/2 to watch later...but not for Claudia. Hello, Anouk Aimée! #TCMParty

Robard's voice is 🔥 #TCMParty #OnceUponATimeInTheWest

goodness this soundtrack is A+ #TCMParty #OnceUponATimeInTheWest

Interesting the first scene shot for the film was the nude love scene between Fonda dnd Cardinale. (Fonda's wife insisted in being on-set.) #TCMParty #OnceUponATimeInTheWest

at 2:25, I'm not sure this film really needs an extended version #TCMParty #OnceUponATimeInTheWest

here late for the EXTENDED version of ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST #TCMParty #OnceUponATimeInTheWest

For those attending #TCMFF, here's what's playing at the NewBev the last four days of April. (May dates aren't available, yet.)

that was fun #TCMParty #TheBankDick

"Could you direct me to a culvert?" #TCMParty #TheBankDick

Franklin Pangborn! #TCMParty #TheBankDick

the hearty hand clasp! #TCMParty #TheBankDick

The character names here are only approached by the names of characters in a Preston Sturges film. #TCMParty #TheBankDick

Goodness, every gag in this film is *GOLD* #TCMParty #TheBankDick

Jessie Ralph?! #BattleAxALERT!! #TCMParty #TheBankDick

The *real* reason to watch THE BANK DICK (1940) is because Una Merkel's in it! #TCMParty

Few make me laugh like W. C. Fields - sometimes against my better judgment - and he is spotlighted on #TCM tonight. Not a bad way to end the weekend. #TCMParty

Don’t miss THE BANK DICK tomorrow at 8 pm. Hilarious, every time. Saw it at an early #TCMFF seated with my buddy @loulumenick.bsky.social with an intro by Fields’s granddaughter. #TCMParty

I had a watch just like Brian's when I was in high school. #TCMParty #TheBreakfastClub

So...which character were you in high school? I was definitely Brian :) #TCMParty #TheBreakfastClub

"No, I don't wear tights. I wear the required uniform." #TCMParty #TheBreakfastClub

If you listen to a lot of 1st Wave on SiruisXM, you're gonna love the first two films tonight! #TCMParty #TheBreakfastClub

Not only do we get Allen Jenkins here, but also Marie Wilson! #TCMParty #MissPacificFleet

Celebrity dinner party. You can invite two people.

come home from work...THE GEORGE BRENT FILMS CONTINUE!!! Looking forward to BABY FACE after FEMALE (airing now) #TCMParty

Bette's dress 🔥 #TCMParty #TheRichAreAlwaysWithUs

Passport? Real ID? Nah...the only credentials I need to get to La-La-Land is this! #TCMFF

What's great about George Brent being #SOTM is that Ruth Chatterton, Bette Davis, and Kay Francis are also represented in a *lot* of these films! #TCMParty #TheRichAreAlwaysWithUs

It's sweet and sentimental...always makes me cry. Stanwyck is SO GREAT in this film. #TCMParty

Richard Loo (playing the Japanese prisoner here) was also in Sam Fuller's THE STEEL HELMET (1951) #TCMParty #ChinaSky

Randolph Scott is about the last person I expected to see in this film. #TCMParty #ChinaSky

here for the tragic Ross Alexander and Henry B. Walthall's final film. #TCMParty #ChinaClipper

"We're dealing with a lot of shit here." #TCMParty #BullDurham

Trey Wilson (the manager here) is so good in this. He also starred in RAISING ARIZONA (1987) as Nathan Arizona. Sadly, he passed away the year after #BullDurham was released. #TCMParty
