Turner Classic Movies March 2020

Nothing particularly new and exciting this month, though lots of solid films.  I am tending to not always list films I have listed before so I will just mention that I do recommend any movie by John Ford or Howard Hawks.

Mar. 2 has Otto Preminger's intense film noir Laura (1944) with a score by David Raskin and Joseph Mankiwicz's lovely The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1949), with haunting music by Bernard Herrmann.

Mar.5 has Vincente Minnelli's vivid and dreamlike melodrama Two Weeks in Another Town (1962)

Mar. 11 has Val Lewton's scary The Seventh Victim (1943), directed by Mark Robson

Mar.. 14 has Preminger's beautiful The River of No Return (1954)

Mar,. 15 has Preminger's Carmen Jones (1954) and Douglas Sirk's ironic Christmas card (1955) All That Heaven Allows.

Mar. 18 has James Whale's The Great Garrick (1937)

Mar.. 19 has Frank Bozage's A Farewell to Arms (1932), a romantic interpretation of Hemingway's novel, and Fritz Lang's Winchester 73, the first of his intensive collaboration with James Stewart.

Mar. 20 has Nicholas Ray's They Live by Night (1949), Joseph H, Lewis's dark side of America Gun Crazy (1950), Jean-luc Godard's Breathless (1960)

Mar. 21 has Jack Arnold's poetic monster film The Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)

Mar. 26 has Joseph H. Lewis's dark Western Terror in a Texas Town (1958), Andre de Toth's Crime Wave (1954) and John Huston's great The Asphalt Jungle (1950)
