The way Daphne says, "I'll say" after that elevator ride! So funny. #SomeLikeItHot #TCMParty
Just down the block from 437 River Street in #OnTheWaterfront. Not such a good address for poor Charlie!

I've read accusations that Donald J. Trump is a pedophile from thousands of people.
Odd, how the notoriously litigious Trump hasn't filed even *one* lawsuit for defamation.
It's almost as if a lawyer told him that truth is an absolute defense in defamation cases . . .
Weβve never, ever had this before. A President completely untethered to truth. I mean completely untethered to truth. Thatβs such a bad thing. But you know whatβs even worse? Way, way too many people donβt care. And way too much of the media no longer cares.π
Happy International Womenβs Day
Just a few days ago. What bothered me the most is how the military brass in the room where it happened DID NOTHING for their fallen soldier. They sat there eyes forward never looking back. So much for no man left behind.
Don't worry MarkyWayne and the Fun Bunch are ready to fix the problem. Noem had her blankie and MarkyWayne has his booster seat. We really are governed by children.
You know what would actually make America great? Investing in research and development, having curiosity about our world, and listening to scientists. #ForAllMankind #TCMParty
Thatβs how Mom feels every time she tries to do her yoga with Maggie around π€£

Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.

black and white photo of a beautiful longhaired white and tabby cat sitting up on a table covered in a patterned run. It seems to have a bow around its neck but it's hard to see due to the length of the cat's fur.

I can never get through that Wilma/Homer bedroom scene without πππ.

This Ladies Room/Fun House Mirror sequence is amazing and disorienting. You never know when you're actually looking at them vs. their reflections. #TheBestYearsOfOurLives #TCMParty

I also think about how that is a big moment in her young life. Yes, she works in a hospital. But here she's confronting the war's reality in her own home. She grows up A LOT in that scene (even though she was already very mature). So that scene isn't just Fred's. #TheBestYearsofOurLives #TCMParty
Feed The Kitty. A masterpiece of storytelling, not just in cartoons.
Also this entire section
Wack your partner with all your might
Whomp him low
Whomp him high
Stick your finger in his eye!
Brilliant!

The two main characters from Vertigo looking at a pink strapless bra. Jimmy Steward on the right bending down. Barbara Bel Geddes standing to the left.
A mid-century cantilevered house - a large sunroom off the right, supported by beams at an angle.
Hitch liked the cantilever design! #NorthByNorthwest #Vertigo #TCMParty

Yes!!! Such an awful scene!
A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nationβs people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustnβt let this war do so.
Music nerd alert. At the end of βSomewhere,β Bernstein has the basses play a low tonic (a total consonance) when thereβs still a bit of hope for them. But at the end, when the orchestra plays the last 2 notes of βSomewhere,β the basses play a tritone below tonic. πΏ #ominous #WestSideStory #TCMParty
Can anybody here even imagine going over a chain-link fence that high like that? Much less actually it? π #WestSideStory #TCMParty
