TCM Star of the Month November 2018: Glenda Farrell

We're in the first full week of a new month, which means that it's time for a new Star of the Month. That star is Glenda Farrell, one of my favorites from the 1930s, what with all those brassy roles. TCM will be running Farrell's films every Monday night in prime time.

Actually, TCM's website says they're running 48 of her movies, so the films are going to extend past prime time, starting early this afternoon with one of Farrell's later movies, her turn as Elvis Presley's mother (well, the mother of one of the Elvis Presleys) in Kissin' Cousins today at 12:45 AM. The 1930s movies begin to show up later in the afternoon, with the really underrated Heat Lightning at 5:30 PM, although that one is really Aline MacMahon's movie.

As for all those Torchy Blane movies, you can catch them one after another next Monday in prime time.
