TCM runs the annual TCM Remembers piece looking at the people who died over the past year, set to music and running a little over four minutes. But for the past few years at least, they've also had a night of programming in December dedicated to people who died and didn't necessarily get a programming tribute earlier in the year. This year, that night of programming is tonight in prime time, continuing into tomorrow afternoon. It looks as though there are ten movies:
The Graduate, at 8:00 PM, honors Buck Henry;
Shirley Knight is a co-star of Sweet Bird of Youth, at 10:00 PM;
Fred Willard shows up in This is Spinal Tap at 12:15 AM;
The Belly of an Architect, a new-to-me movie, stars Brian Dennehy and comes on at 2:00 AM;
Jerry Stiller plays the brother-in-law of a fleeing mobster in The Ritz, at 4:15 AM;
Ennio Morricone provided music for The Battle of Algiers at 6:00 AM;
The Family Secret stars Baby Peggy and starts at 8:15 AM;
Honor Blackman appears in the British comedy The Square Peg at 9:30 AM;
Fellow British actress and Bond Girl Diana Rigg has a role in Evil Under the Sun at 11:00 AM; and
The China Syndrome includes a part by Wilford Brimley, at 1:15 PM.
The following movie is The Red Badge of Courage, and if anybody from that movie wasn't already dead and died in 2020, I couldn't find it. TCM's page for the programming doesn't mention it either.
