My worry is if they did that then they would start to lose focus of what has made them such a success so far - that perhaps they would start catering for a 'bigger' audience to cover those costs and move away from what has brought them such widespread support and admiration. I think a catch-up service would be a better middle ground, especially now they're showing a few more TV series. They tend to repeat their films quite sensibly anyway, so that's not such a concern. A great knock-on effect is that Great! Movies (that used to be Movies4Men among other things) have started to follow suit with a lot of the kinds of films they show as well, and they've uncovered some little seen gems as well in the last year or so. Their schedules are always worth trawling through too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny I just came across that about thirty minutes ago when scouring through TCM, Great! And Talking Pictures. It sounded like my cup of tea, and delighted to see that it's highly recommend.

Perry Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Couple of decent films that's on Talking Pics over the next couple of weeks that's never been shown elsewhere for ages Blood and Wine (1996) on Sat 4th Dec Always thought this was an underrated film with Jack Nicholson and Michael Caine. Vampire Circus (1971) on Fri 10th Dec This one was always one of my favourite Hammer Horror films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members waters44 Posted December 6, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted December 6, 2021 I’ve had a look through the next week of listings and I don’t recognise much (which doesn’t mean a lot tbh) however one thing did stick out - Black Sunday 1977. It sticks out because it’s directed by John Frankenheimer who I’ve heard of, and the cast includes Robert Shaw and Bruce Dern. Has anyone seen it? Any good?

One of Frankenheimer's best which, considering his body of work, says a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members WeeAl Posted December 6, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted December 6, 2021 What day and time is it on @waters44? Must record that one myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted December 6, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted December 6, 2021 Didn't know anything about Frankenheimer, so looked him up, and OK - French Connection II, the original Manchurian Candidate, Birdman of Alcatraz, and Ronin? Nice. I also see he was the guy who made the 1996 Island of Dr. Moreau and Reindeer Games. Everyone has slip-ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
