Quick Preview of TCM in January

It's time for a quick look at what's ahead on Turner Classic Movies when we turn the corner into 2024!

A partial schedule is now available for review, and while it's still a work in progress, there's enough information to share for this preview.

The January Star of the Month will be Robert Mitchum. Mitchum was previously a Star of the Month in November 1996 and October 2005.

Roughly three dozen Mitchum films will be shown on Tuesday evenings in January, running all night and into the following day.

The January Noir Alley titles will be PICKUP (1951), I DIED A THOUSAND TIMES (1955), STAGE FRIGHT (1950), and WOMAN IN HIDING (1950). PICKUP, starring Hugo Haas and Beverly Michaels (WICKED WOMAN), will be a TCM premiere.

New Year's Day will be spent with Godzilla and other Japanese monster movies. 

TCM premieres in January will include the silent films THE JOHNSTOWN FLOOD (1926) starring George O'Brien and ANNIE LAURIE (1927) starring Lillian Gish.

Additional daytime January programming themes will include 1950s musicals, adventure films, ice, New York City, dogs, artists, West Point, the Saint and Andy Hardy movie series, and California's Catalina Island.

Filmmakers honored with multifilm tributes in January will include Rod Taylor, Jane Wyman, Joan Leslie, Sidney Poitier, Deborah Kerr, Colleen Moore, and the Marx Brothers.

I'll have more details on the January schedule posted here around New Year's, and in the meantime enjoy Cary Grant as the December Star of the Month!
