One blog. Two opinions. One zillion films.

Tam, Turner Classic Movies (channel 57 locally) just emailed me their schedule for April. A quick scan shows some real highlights.

• April 3, 6:30 AM: Brando. TCM’s original two-hour documentary on the guy who pretty much established modern acting. I’ve been waiting for this; I caught only the first half of it last year. There’s a lot of fascinating rare footage, including a strange TV interview of Marlon Brando with his father — who was a real a-hole.

• April 4: A Mockumentary Four-Fer!: Gotta make room on the TiVo for four consecutive very funny movies. Oh wait, I already own the Christopher Guest movies.

- 6:00 PM Take The Money And Run. Let’s review how funny Woody Allen really was.

- 7:30 PM Real Life. Albert Brooks’ satire on TV “real life” documentaries. That’s the great Harry Shearer wearing one of those helmet-cams.

- 9:15 PM Best in Show

- 11:00 PM This Is Spinal Tap Two classics, to say the least, and Spinal Tap was the movie that started it all.

• April 5, noon: The President’s Analyst. James Coburn in the hippest Bond spoof ever. A quintessential 60’s films. Been a while. Does it hold up?

. . . Lordy, there’s just too much this month. The Good, The Bad and the Ugly; Shane (pandering to locals, are we?), Modern Times, Butch Cassidy et al, The Horse Soldiers (a family classic because my Uncle Johnny, an extra, gets shot in the eye!), Gone With the Wind !!!11!, Double Indemnity (K finds Fred MacMurray sexy, which further adds to her charm) — that’s all too much, leaving no time for stoner classics like I Married A Monster From Outer Space.

I got work today. You finish logging the schedule.
