Actor-turned director Rob Reiner was killed back in December at the age of 78, and it's time for TCM to do their programming tribute to Reiner. That tribute is in prime time tonight, and includes four of the movies Reiner directed:
8:00 PM The Princess Bride
10:00 PM When Harry Met Sally...
Midnight Stand By Me
1:45 AM This Is Spinal Tap
When I downloaded the monthly schedule, there was still a blank space between This Is Spinal Tap and the "following" movie, The Lost Patrol at 4:45 AM. That blank spot was subsequently filled by The Song Remains the Same at 3:15 AM which is not a Rob Reiner movie. The Song Remains the Same is 137 minutes, which means that The Lost Patrol was removed from the schedule.
I also have to admt that I have yet to see The Princess Bride, so I'm recording that one and will eventually get around to watching it and writing up a review here. I will probably also record Stand By Me; that's one of those movies that I saw ages ago, long before this blog, and haven't seen since, so I've never actually considered blogging about it before.
