TCM Schedule for Wednesday, October 12: Angels and Devils
The daytime theme is Hit the Road, and it turns out the road can be a rather complicated place: Sometimes there's danger, sometimes there's romance, sometimes there's laughter, and sometimes you get a combination of any of the aforementioned.
Evening and the wee hours are devoted to stories of the 
and the 
, and that schedule comes complete with a Robert Montgomery sighting. Hallelujah!
