TCM waited until the end of the month to have this month's Guest Programmer come on to present four of his favorite movies. That guest programmer is Joseph Abboud, a men's fashion designer. I suppose it would be nice if we could get a discussion of men's fashion in the movies, but I don't think that's really on the cards for tonight; instead, it's a selection of reasonably well-known classic films:
They Died With Their Boots On, a highly fictionalized telling of the life of George Armstrong Custer, starring Errol Flynn as the doomed general, kicks off the evening at 8:00 PM.
That's followed at 10:30 PM by Alfred Hitchcock's Rebecca, in which Joan Fontaine comes to suspect something happened involving the death of her husband's (Laurence Olivier) first wife;
Alfred Hitchcock returns for Notorious at 1:00 AM; and
Humphrey Bogart hides letters of transit from Conrad Veidt in Casablanca at 3:00 AM.
