Quick Preview of TCM in August: Summer Under the Stars

The tentative lineup for this year's Summer Under the Stars festival on Turner Classic Movies is now available.

We now know the stars scheduled to be honored; the schedule itself is still a work in progress.

Typically TCM will share the complete schedule on a special Summer Under the Stars microsite, and if that's the case again this year I will add the link here when it's posted.

August is always fun on TCM, but I think this year's list of stars looks particularly enjoyable. Each of the stars listed below will be honored with a 24-hour marathon in August.
