1. Wow! TCM broadcasts "I am Curious - Yellow"

I saw that film when it was first released, at an art theater in Detroit. They showed many foreign flicks, and also Walt Disney's Fantasia. Every time I went there, the place was packed.

BTW, The Mark of Zorro is a fun flick. Well worth a viewing.

2. Just saw "Nightmare Alley" for the first time

Actually, quite a good film and very dark. But of course I'd watch anything with Joan Blondell -- what a woman!
