Honestly, TCM needs to air #WithnailandI once every six weeks. Been eons since they’ve run this brilliantly shambolic and hilariously weird masterpiece. #tcmparty. #iveonlyhadafewales

Absolutely Diane Keaton and Albert Finney at the acme of their acting might; #ShootTheMoon is underrated; heartbreaking, resonates for any child of an acrimonious divorce. Incredibly sad that Dana Hill died so young; she was stunning in this film. #tcmparty Also nice #Fame Easter egg from Parker.

Gloria Swanson was the same age as Reese Witherspoon, 50, when she made #SunsetBoulevard. As much as I admire Wilder’s direction and Seitz’s cinematography, the misogyny of this film and Holden’s character has always been kinda problematic. #tcmparty

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

“You got a love bite on your neck.” #Moonstruck is perfect in all ways. Brilliant cast, screenplay, direction, everything - just one of the greatest movies ever - and a postcard of the NYC of my childhood. And in this mad, awful world, a desperately needed escape tonight. #tcmparty

This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.

Here's Colbert on July 14 making fun of Paramount for paying Trump $16 million. It's hard not to see CBS canceling his show through this lens. "I believe this kind of complicated financial settlement with a sitting government official has a technical name in legal circles. It's big fat bribe."

Of all of Martin Scorsese’s movies, I always thought #TheAgeofInnocence is his best, a voluptuous movie of sensual, tragic restraint. A different kind of violence. And Joanne Woodward’s narration deserved its own Oscar. #tcmparty
