I think ARCTIC FLIGHT will be a premiere. Per MovieCollector's database, it's never aired on TCM before. I agree that Arctic Flight is a TCM premiere. I list the TCM premieres for the upcoming month(s) in my summary documents based on the MCOH database. The format of the document can change a bit from month to month, but the list of premieres is typically on the last page of the schedule at-a-glance pdf along with a list of the showcase titles. escapepress.com/tcmsched/tcm_overview.html |

Paul Douglas and Janet Leigh have great chemistry (the scene where she comes to his apartment for the first time is romcom perfect), the baseball stuff is fun with some cool cameos (Joe DiMaggio pops up as does Bing Crosby) and the time travel to the early 1950s, especially to a few iconic ballparks, is wonderful. I even enjoy the silly angle on the angels. |

Primetime July 7 Night One of Star of the Month '70s Stars. I was too sleepy to get to this last night, but here we are. Sub-theme is Love On and Off Screen, so I guess the on-screen couples below were couples in real life, as well.
The Getaway (Steve McQueen, Ali MacGraw) (National General, 1972)
Greased Lightning (Richard Pryor, Pam Grier) (Warner Bros., 1977)
Late Night more '70s stars. The sub-theme is Anything for Love, which I interpret is couples trying to stay together under increasingly desperate circumstances - or at least one party willing to risk everything for the other.
Badlands (Martin Sheen, Sissy Spacek) (Warner Bros., 1973)
Zandy's Bride (Gene Hackman, Liv Ullman) (Warner Bros., 1974)
Dog Day Afternoon (Al Pacino, Charles Durning) (Warner Bros., 1975)

Primetime July 8 Guest Programmer Alice Troughton. I don't know much about her, only that she directed a couple of episodes of the new Doctor Who, whcih makes her hysterically popular in certain fan-based cirecles.

Primetime July 9 Night Two of the Month-Long Theme on Disbilities ... I would like to say the sub-theme is foreign films, but I don't want a snide comment that if I don't know what it is to not be able to walk, then my life must be really awesome ... so I won't.

Primetime July 10 Guest Programmer: Shari Belafonte. They go whole months without guest programmers, and now they have two in three days. Weird. But no doubt they want to do a Harry Belafonte tribute and she selects one of his films, perhaps partly at their suggestion. There's a short silent from 1903 on here, but I'll list all the features she picked.
Carefree (Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers) (RKO, 1938)
Harvey (James Stewart, Peggy Dow) (Universal, 1950)
Odds Against Tomorrow (Harry Belafonte) (United Artists, 1959)
Flower Drum Song (Nancy Kwan, James Shigeta) (Universal, 1961)
La Cage aux Folles (Ugo Tognazzi, Michel Serrault) (Dist. in the US by United Artists, 1979)
