WATCH: Member Noel T. Manning II (@noeltmanning.bsky.social) revisits #3godfathers on Meet Me at the Movies:

Yes, I believe the John Ford/John Wayne 1948 version is on Saturday the 20th, the 1936 Borzslawski/Morris version is on Wednesday 12/24, and the earlier third sound version, 1929's Hell's Heroes (William Wyler's first sound film) is on early Sunday 12/21. #ThreeGodfathers #3Godfathers #TCMParty
Oh good, your guide is correct! My guide is showing the title of the 1936 movie but if you open the program details-they're for the 1948 movie!
Me too! I LOVE the 1936 version! I think it's one of Chester Morris' best roles.

"Boss says come and get it."
"I'll thank you to remember there's only one boss around here."
"Yes sir, and she says, 'Chow's down.'"

“Don’t talk Mex in front of the infant!” Duke couldn’t help but inject a little racism into a heart-warming story! #TCMParty #3Godfathers
Useful bits of information I learned in movies that I'll probably never have an opportunity to use: Never dynamite a water hole in the desert. (Feel free to share your own!) #TCMParty #3Godfathers

I love the way this scene looks with the sand going over those dunes like that. #3Godfathers #SummerUnderTheStars #TCMParty #JohnFord #JohnWayne
“I’ll be seeing you boys…probably.” Ward Bond is great in this. #3Godfathers #SummerUnderTheStars #TCMParty #JohnFord #JohnWayne
Ladies and gentlemen: Mr. Ward Bond. #3Godfathers #TCMParty
Second billing, right after The Duke, not bad for a Mexican American actor in 1949!

Two lesser known John Ford films are on #TCM tonight as part of the #SUTS for Pedro Armendáriz, a member of Ford's stock company: #3Godfathers, a western version of the Three Wise Men with Harry Carey Jr's first big role; and #TheFugitive, a moody Graham Greene adaptation shot in Mexico. #TCMParty
On shot composition, John Ford said, "It's all about where you put the horizon" and while that doesn't literally apply to this moving burial scene in #3Godfathers (1948), it still fits.
Beautiful cinematography, courtesy of Winton C. Hoch.

#3Godfathers te gustará si eres fan del western pero aceptas que no todo sea disparar antes de preguntar y quieres ver el lado tierno de John Wayne.
Huye si crees que los hombres duros no preparan biberones y, como dijo W.C. Fields, prefieres no trabajar con perros ni con niños.
Los tres protagonistas de la película
#3Godfathers tal vez sea la única película "navideña" de Ford, una especie de "It's a Wonderful life" pasada por las arenas del farwest, con un toque de comedia a lo "3 solteros y un biberón". Una entrañable rareza en el cine del maestro.
🎄 Merry Christmas, friends! This year, we chat about "3 Godfathers" and "Tokyo Godfathers." These films really embody the holiday spirit in their own special ways.

Although one of his lesser-known films, #3Godfathers came in the middle of John Ford's cavalry trilogy and features nearly every member of Ford's extended stock company: Ward Bond, Ben Johnson, Jane Darwell, Mildred Natwick, Mae Marsh, Hank Worden, Jack Pennick, and Ford's brother Francis. #TCMParty
As always, Winton C. Hoch's color cinematography in John Ford's #3Godfathers is spectacular, rendering the scenery of Death Valley (instead of Ford's frequent location of Monument Valley) in beautiful sandwashed tones. #TCMParty
@TCM next time you feel the need to air
#3Godfathers (1948) or
#ThreeGodfathers (1936), or
#HellsHeroes (1929),
how about airing #TokyoGodfathers (2003) instead?
