Loved FILM: THE LIVING RECORD doc, which shines a light on the people behind preservation. And what a committed squad of cinema superheroes they are!
Our spotlight on Hollywoodland turns the lens on documentaries. Join us for a night of documentaries exploring film preservation, how film was invented and female filmmakers. It kicks off tonight at 8pm ET with the TCM premiere of FILM: THE LIVING RECORD OF OUR MEMORY.

Hope you’re watching with us! So honored to have Spielberg join us tonight to share his perspective on these 3 films.

And I love all the troubleshooters advising your awesome dad on how to get @tcm where he is. Crowd sourcing at its best!
Replying to @BenMank77
@BenMank77 I got my love of old movies from my Dad. He's 84 and in a nursing home, that doesn't have the TCM channel available to him but he's found a way to keep his love of old movie alive by hosting an hour long trivia game with other residents.

Can’t unsee this.

A very special reminder! Ted is my sweet dad. He was very impressed with @BenMank77 , the TCM crew and the “big-time star treatment” he received that day. Thanks to all @tcm for this lovely gift!

The world needs more Lindy Hoppers! More jitterbugging and way more Swing!
We're swinging into the Soundies with the incomparable Jazz legend, Duke Ellington and His Orchestra! 🎷 One of two Ellington Soundies tonight, HOT CHOCOLATE ('41) also showcases the astounding dancers of Arthur White’s Lindy Hoppers and Jitterbugs.

“thunderbirds are go!”…I never understood how dang cool this was. Thank you @ TCM programming team!
Released at the height of the James Bond craze, THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO ('66) which is based on the popular children's show, stars a cast of marionettes who experience espionage, saboteurs, and special effects.

This whole series! Each guest shares surprising personal connections and insights. We sometimes forget the reach of our most powerful cultural export. @tcm
Replying to @tcm
Vyas selected the film in honor of her father who is a huge Audie Murphy fan and ended up enlisting in the same company and regiment as Murphy after moving from Kenya: B Company, 1st Battalion, 15th Infantry Regiment.
