TCM Schedule for Wednesday, January 3: Hollywood Foreign Press

You'd best take cover during the day, because they, including a radioactive dinosaur, are out to get you.

You can still emerge in time to join journalist and Hollywood Foreign Press Association member Silvia Bizio and TCM host Ben Mankiewicz for the evening roster of films restored thanks to the joint work of the HFPA and the Film Foundation.

I have The Giant Behemoth, The Boy With Green Hair, Pather Panchali and La Jetee.

When nothing else is on, TCM always comes through!

HBO is running each Harry Potter movie in sequence today, which is a total binge I have yet to indulge in. All of those kids aging and learning their craft before our eyes - what a testament to commitment! Future TCM movies for sure!
