Hey everyone!
I don't know what you'll be doing on Thanksgiving Day (in the US,
anyway), but I'll be glued to my tube watching a HUGE A&C fest on
TCM! They are only showing a few of the "meets" films, and sadly,
the beloved A&C MEET FRANKENSTEIN is missing (TCM mentioned that
they might be licensing that one for early in 2005), but there are
some real gems in this lineup on November 25th! If you haven't seen
A&C IN THE FOREIGN LEGION, for example, I highly recommend that!
Here's the lineup, with all times EST. Enjoy! :)
