MAKING CHANGE: THE MOST SIGNIFICANT POLITICAL FILMS OF ALL TIME coming to TCM in September Turner Classic Movies 2024-08-27 | Turner Classic Movies (TCM) announced that Making Change: The Most Significant Political Films of All Time, a nine-week limited series showcasing films from the list by The New Republic, will premiere September 6, 2024, at 8PM ET/PT. TCM host Ben Mankiewicz and influential guests from all sectors of culture including Steven Spielberg, Melissa Etheridge, and John Turturro will dive into cinema’s most impactful political films. “Americans - understandably - often want to get as far away from politics as possible. But I grew up in Washington, DC, in a house where it was the family business. So I learned at an early age that, whether we like it or not, politics intersects with our culture every day,” says TCM host Ben Mankiewicz. “And the movies, since before the arrival of sound, have long served as a barometer of our political climate. This series brings an eclectic mix of filmmakers, actors, political figures, and journalists to TCM to discuss a varied selection of brilliant movies. Along the way, we’ll discuss how great films have managed to predict political culture, to reflect it, and to challenge it.” Each of these films' sparks discussion, inspires change, and can shift perspectives, creating an inspiring environment for viewers to explore these films within their historical context.

He deconstructs the Western and, for the first time, makes films specifically about Indians and women. But his power in Hollywood dwindles, and he soon finds himself out of work, a living legend living off his savings. As Ford enters his 70s, his movies are rediscovered and he is showered with honors and accolades, even as he denies his own artistry every chance he gets. Though he does accept one major award... from none other than the President of the United States.00:00 -- Kate and Jack04:46 -- Mister Roberts14:12 -- The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance20:00 -- Cheyenne Autumn26:50 -- Alcholics Semi-Anonymous32:49 -- 7 Women37:16 -- Forced Retirement44:10 -- A Final Tribute49:00 -- Paying RespectsThe Plot Thickens is the official podcast from Turner Classic Movies (TCM) about movies and the people who make them.

Russ Tamblyn’s Unforgettable “Shovel Dance” from THE FASTEST GUN ALIVE | Mad About Musicals | TCM Turner Classic Movies 2024-07-12 | Legendary actor and dancer Russ Tamblyn initially resented being cast in THE FASTEST GUN ALIVE because he felt his role wasn’t interesting or challenging but changed his mind when he was told he’d be allowed to do his own dance number on screen. Glenn Ford assumed the number would be the kind of brief musical interlude that often appeared in musicals but when he saw Tamblyn’s extraordinary routine, he was astonished. Ford, who was married to esteemed tap dancer and actress Eleanor Powell, was fond of dance numbers but felt Tamblyn’s number was out of place in the film. As Tamblyn later recalled Ford said “This is a little western here and this guy is coming in and trying to do a Donald O’Connor all over the walls.” Ford tried to get the number cut from the film and it was said to have been cut from the preview but the credits still contained a reference to Russ Tamblyn’s dance number and the audience demanded to see it. The number was reinserted into the picture and ended up being one of the highlights of the film.#MadAboutMusicals #RussTamblyn #TCM Connect with Turner Classic Movies:Visit TCM WEBSITE: bit.ly/4bXC5tZ Follow TCM on INSTAGRAM: bit.ly/4bYR1I6 Like TCM on FACEBOOK: bit.ly/4ehMIcB Follow TCM on X: bit.ly/3VD6dVzFollow TCM on TIKTOK: bit.ly/3VOMUsNSubscribe now to watch more classic film content from TCM http://spr.ly/6017cTBT Russ Tamblyn’s Unforgettable “Shovel Dance” from THE FASTEST GUN ALIVE | Mad About Musicals | TCMyoutu.be/EsimdPNbifcTCMyoutube.com/@TurnerClassicMovies
The Mythmaker: Decoding John Ford | The Plot Thickens (S5 E6) | TCM Turner Classic Movies 2024-07-11 | Episode 6 – The Mythmaker At the height of his powers, John Ford directs his masterpiece, an anti-racist Western called The Searchers. It’s a movie of contradictions: John Wayne plays the hero, but he’s driven by hate and revenge. He’s searching for his niece, with the intent to kill her. Behind the scenes, Ford continues to use Monument Valley as a generic backdrop for the West without once acknowledging that it’s sacred Navajo land. And while Ford considered himself a friend to the Navajos, his portrayal of Native Americans is fraught with stereotypes. But these damaging images were used in service of creating a complex, fascinating film that dared to condemn bigotry and has mesmerized generations of film fans. 00:00 – Old Fat03:54 – The Searchers10:34 – The Desert Set14:42 – Navajo Land21:35 – The Racist Hero31:44 – Finding Debbie35:45 – The Final Shot40:31 – A Vision Of AmericaThe Plot Thickens is the official podcast from Turner Classic Movies (TCM) about movies and the people who make them.

There, he creates his own kingdom, a place he can work and create art without being under the thumb of studio executives. His stock company follows him from film to film, and Ford rewards his loyal subjects, but he’s not a kind ruler. He mercilessly picks on actors and pits them against each other, sometimes in the cruelest ways possible.

The one time Ford talked about it, he claimed it was buried in a government film vault, too disturbing for public view. This sends Ben on a globe-trotting journey, following clues in the US, England and Russia. He encounters fellow seekers, as well as skeptics who question whether the footage was lost in battle… or if Ford made the whole thing up.

The Commander: Decoding John Ford | The Plot Thickens (S5 E3) | TCM Turner Classic Movies 2024-06-20 | Episode 3 – The Commander Ford is finally in the military and his first assignment is… to make a sex ed film for soldiers! Soon he sees real combat and is injured while filming The Battle of Midway. He’s nursed back to health with the help of John Wayne, while his Midway movie wins an Oscar and becomes a favorite of President Roosevelt. Ford then recuts December 7th, a movie directed by his friend and colleague Gregg Toland, to make it less racist. It wins him yet another Oscar. The brass recruit Ford for the assignment of his career: to cover the largest invasion in history. Ford goes to Normandy Beach to film D-Day, but his film detailing the invasion goes missing. 00:00 – Military Aspirations05:39 – Sex Hygiene08:10 – Field Photo16:33 – Pearl Harbor20:57 – The Battle of Midway26:42 – Recovering with John Wayne29:38 – Editing in Secret37:00 – Assignment: D-Day He made John Wayne cry. He placed a real baby in front of galloping horses. He was a commander at D-Day, a union leader, and a tyrant. Meet John Ford, the curmudgeon with an eye patch who just happened to be the greatest filmmaker of the 20th century. Ford was a bully and a drunk who ruled Hollywood for five decades, making dozens of seminal movies – though he was incredibly hard to pin down. His behavior swung wildly from loyalty to cruelty, without notice. He won more Oscars than any director in history, but never showed up to accept an award. And he rewrote American history, painting the country with images so beautiful that people wished they were real. John Ford defined the attitudes of his time, ideas about masculinity and heroism that we're still grappling with today. This season on The Plot Thickens, TCM brings you Decoding John Ford, a seven-part podcast about cinema's most mysterious auteur. Part of that mystery is his classified – and missing – WWII film. In 1944, the U.S. military recruited Ford for the assignment of his career: to cover the largest invasion in history. He went to Normandy Beach to film D-Day and created an on-the-ground film detailing the invasion, but the film goes missing. Host Ben Mankiewicz travels to Europe to trace the mystery of whether the D-Day movie exists.The Plot Thickens is the official podcast from Turner Classic Movies (TCM) about movies and the people who make them.

His birth records say differently, and it would not be the last time he changes his name. As a child, he visits Ireland and falls in love with his heritage, and later fights at the University of Maine when confronted with an Irish slur. He rediscovers his long-lost older brother Francis while watching the “flickers” and follows him to Hollywood. He gets work as his brother’s stunt double then he fibs his way into directing features, eventually making his name on a pair of famous silent Westerns that still astonish today. As Hollywood transitions to talkies, Ford befriends the man who would become his friend, his muse, and his enabler, a young football player named John Wayne.00:00 – Introduction: Decoding John Ford07:00 – Irish in Maine12:07 – Older brother Francis19:24 – Arriving in Hollywood28:44 – Stepping behind the camera31:31 – The Iron Horse37:54 – Three Bad Men41:51 – Enter John WayneHe made John Wayne cry.
