TCM Guest Programmer September 2018: Keith Carradine

Continuing with the theme of getting back to regular programming on TCM after the end of Summer Under the Stars, we have the chance to see another Guest Programmer on TCM. This month, it's Keith Carradine, star of movies such as Robert Altman's Nashville. He selected four of his favorites and sat down with Ben Mankiewicz to discuss them. Those movies will be on tonight in prime time:

Captains Courageous at 8:00 PM, starring Spencer Tracy as the Portuguese-American fisherman who teaches spoiled rich boy Freddie Bartholomew a thing or two about maturity;
Random Harvest at 10:15 PM, a romance I hate hate hate, starring Greer Garson as a woman who falls in love with amnesiac World War I vet Ronald Colman, only to lose him when he gets a second head injury that sends him back to his pre-war life;
Performance at 12:30 AM, a new-to-me movie starring a younger Mick Jagger as a rock star who winds up sheltering gangster James Fox in his mansion; and
Thieves Like Us at 2:30 AM, one of Carradine's own movies about one of a gang of thieves in the Depression-era South who falls in love and wants to go straight.
