Quick Preview of TCM in June
Here's a brief look ahead at the June schedule on Turner Classic Movies!The schedule is still a work in progress, with a significant number of titles to be announced later, but enough information has been filled in to provide a preview.
Friday nights the TCM Spotlight will focus on con artists. Also of note in June: Tim Holt Westerns every Saturday morning!
The June Noir Alley lineup will be THE BIG STEAL (1949) on the first Sunday of the month, plus THE UNDERCOVER MAN (1949), CRACK-UP (1946), PALE FLOWER (1964), and SORRY, WRONG NUMBER (1948).
TCM will host a memorial tribute for Richard Chamberlain on June 16th and mark the centennial of Tony Curtis's birth on June 3rd.
A couple films which particularly caught my eye were the classic screwball comedy MIDNIGHT (1939), showing twice in the month. It's also coming out on Blu-ray from the Criterion Collection in June.
The Streamliner NIAGARA FALLS (1941) is another film not shown often on TCM.
TCM will celebrate Father's Day on June 15th. Additional June programming themes will include "murder at sea," adventures in Africa, race car drivers, and "dangerous twins."
Other filmmakers honored with multifilm tributes in June will include Ennio Morricone, Vincente Minnelli, Judy Garland, Susan Hayward, Errol Flynn, Sissy Spacek, and a day of films featuring sisters Joan Fontaine and Olivia de Havilland.
And only on TCM will you find a day of films featuring actress Pert Kelton!
I'll have much more on the June schedule here around June 1st. In the meantime, Red Skelton continues as the April Star of the Month, and Mae West is coming in May.

I am looking very forward to those Tim Holt oaters, particularly the earlier ones with Cliff Edwards as Tim’s sidekick. Jeff Arnold only wrote about a handful of them.
I belatedly noticed there are also Tim Holt Westerns scheduled for Saturday mornings in May, so be sure to check those out too! I love those movies. :)
Best wishes,
Laura
