Right now they're showing "On the Town" with Frank Sinatra, Gene Kelly, and Ann Miller, among others.

I watch it all the time. One of my very favorite all time movies is Key Largo with Humphrey Bogart & Edward G. Robinson. I watch it just about every time it's on.
The movies that are shown on TCM are much different than the ones shown on HBO. There's just as much sex & violence in the TCM flicks it's just that it's implied or rather left up to the imagination. The ones on HBO just show the gore & leave it at that. Don't get me wrong now I have HBO & all the other movie channels for a reason & that is I watch them. But it's nice to go & see a classic movie on TCM from time to time.

Really enjoy Cool Hand Luke, On The Waterfront, From Here to Eternity, The Rainmaker [Hepburn and Lancaster], Paint Your Wagon, The Man who Shot Liberty Valance

I watch it occasionally. Caught "Return To Paradise" with Gary Cooper last night. The one movie I can't get enough of is "Mister Roberts". At one time that movie was even used as a training aid at the Navy's Officer Candidate School at Newport, Rhode Island to show the cadets the very model of a modern junior officer (Apologies to Gilbert & Sullivan).

I love TCM. Right now its Ann Miller night of the stars.
My favorite is Easter Parade with Judy Garland and all of Bettie Davis' movies. I also like Veronica Lake and Alan Ladd together.
My all time favorite is Rebecca with Joan Fontaine. I know that script too!
For some strange reason I like to watch Stalag 17 over and over again. Never get tired of it.

I certainly do watch Turner Classic Movies. Some of them
are really good stuff. "The Maltese Falcon" is a classic
with Bogart and Bergman. We also saw "The Third Man".
They don't make movies like those now.

I have many favorites, but two that I'll always watch if I can catch them are Penny Serenade with Cary Grant and Irene Dunn, and An Affair to Remember with Cary Grant (hmm, seems to be a pattern here!) and Deborah Kerr. Wonderful old love stories!

I love any of the Thin Man movies (because of Asta; I'm a wire fox terrier fanatic!!) and anything with Joan Crawford or Bette Davis. "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?" and "Mildred Pierce" are two favorites! I'd have to pick "Baby Jane" as the one I could watch repeatedly--love it!!!
