I forgot that that the script for #Chicago is by the guy who also wrote #GodsAndMonsters and directed the last two #Twilight movies, Bill Condon

This is as close to a #NoirAlley and #MusicalMatinee crossover as we’re going to get. #Chicago #TCMParty

The closed captions for #Chicago are so funny. They say "can" instead of "ass" but "sh-t" is okay?

I was not familiar with John C. Reilly before seeing him in #Chicago. "Mister Cellophane" is when I said, "Who *is* this guy?!? He's amazing!"

Comparing #Cabaret to #Chicago, the former feels a lot grimier than the latter

As great as the leads are, I would argue that the MVP in #Chicago is John C. Reilly

I just realized that Tommy's costume in the "Pinball Wizard" sequence is supposed to have been made from one of the summer camp uniforms

Classic Ghosts Stories with Robert Powell (1986) - YouTube Five classic ghost stories by M.R. James, read by actor Robert Powell in the festive fireside tradition for which they were first written.

If you're a fan of literary horror, Robert Powell, the actor who plays Captain Walker, hosted a BBC series of "partially dramatized readings" of works by M.R. James titled #ClassicGhostStories, which you can watch on YouTube

This is a lot better than I expected. I was never a Bing Crosby fan, or Marion Davies. But they are really pulling this together, and Ned Sparks and the rest of the cast filling in well. Its all frothy mess but fun. Blackface still an insult tho.

I know it's not the fault of TCM's programmers but running a bummer like #Camelot as the #MusicalMatinee today may not have been the best choice for the #TCMParty crowd.

Yeah, I'm with those who don't get why Camelot has to be such a BROWN movie. I'm reminded of Roger Ebert's complaint about how in Hook, Neverland "appears to be in the middle of a drought." #TCMParty #MusicalMatinee
