Today is James Stewart day on TCM!!



Here's the lineup (times below are central):

Anatomy of a Murder - We missed it, but OMG so good. If you haven't seen it, you definitely need to Netflix it or mark down June 23, the next time it airs on TCM.

8:30 am - You Can't Take it With You - co-starring Jean Arthur. Though he'd been in Hollywood for a while, this movie marks the beginning of Stewart's ascendency in Hollywood.

10:45 am - Mr. Smith Goes to Washington - just a great all around movie. Highly recommended for people of all ages.

1:00 pm - Rear Window - co-starring Grace Kelly and directed by Alfred Hitchcock. My favorite Stewart and Hitch collaboration and the movie that inspired this blog's name.

3:00 pm - Vertigo - Another Hitchcock movie, and probably his best psychological drama.

5:15 pm - Bell, Book and Candle - The only film on this lineup I haven't seen.

*Movie Quote from Anatomy of a Murder, said by Eve Arden, a popular character actress of the 30's, 40's and 50's, probably best known to my generation of movie goers as Principal McGee in Grease.
