TCM Party screens North by Northwest

Since I wasn’t able to put this on the timeline for Cary Grant day due to BlueSky having issues, here it is for Rosalind Russell day. #TCMParty

Ironically enough Rosalind Russell, like her character in THE VELVET TOUCH, was looking to change up her career at the time she worked on this film. She ended up going to Broadway for the roles she wanted but she didn’t murder anybody ^PG #TCMParty #SUTS

If I had to name one movie that showed everything Cary Grant had in his toolbox it would be #NorthByNorthwest. Charm, wit, physicality, ruthlessness, intelligence, sophistication, passion…it’s all here. #TCMParty

If you’re in LA on Friday, August 28 #NorthByNorthwest will be screening in 70mm at the #AcademyMuseum Alas texting comments is frowned upon #TCMParty

“How bleak was my puberty!” is possibly the best line in all of cinema. #TCMParty #AuntieMame

I wonder how often Spielberg and Lucas watch #GungaDin before starting Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? #TCMParty

It’s Rosalind Russell #SUTS day on TCM, which made me think of this film I first heard of last week while reading a book about Amelia Earhart. I get the impression it doesn’t air much, so I just ordered the Warner Archive DVD. “Flight for Freedom” (1943)

It also mirrors Roger's encounter with the farmer at Prairie Stop, Highway 41. #NorthByNorthwest #TCMParty

I know Roger is in dire straits and pretty upset about it, but he really is kind of insufferable. He's darned lucky it's Cary Grant playing him. 😄 #SUTS #TCMParty

Thanks again for hosting Joel. I always learn something when you host! Appreciate your researching and bringing the film facts we all LOVE. #TCMParty #NXNW #NorthByNorthwest

ROSALIND RUSSELL is today's 'Summer Under the Stars' honoree on TCM. Back in June, TCM aired 7 movies as a Birthday Tribute, including the comedies Fast and Loose, The Women, and The Feminine Touch. #TCMParty #movies #film #actress

Even after the crop duster attack he is so debonair. #NorthByNorthwest #TCMParty

“But darling, this IS our family!” Auntie Mame an early advocate for families of choice. #AuntieMame #TCMParty

This entire movie is an homage to hostess pants. #TCMParty

Of all my peak-pandemic retail-therapy purchases, this painting is the only one I don't regret. He watches over me... while wearing protective goggles. He knows what he's doing. It's been a pretty big day in this household, I'll tell you. #TCMParty #CaryGrant #SUTS
