In this post: TCM holiday movie schedule.
Those of you who read the Howdygram regularly know I’m a big classic movie fan. I love the good ones, the cheesy ones and practically any genre you can think of except for chainsaws and gladiators. That said, December is a great time to watch TCM because I love holiday movies AND because they do a retrospective montage thing of all the famous faces who died that year. Click here to check out the montage on TCM’s website. (I tried to embed the video but it screwed up the rest of my post formatting.)
And now, here’s a list of my favorite upcoming holiday movies! (All times shown here are Central.)

The Bishop’s Wife (1947) at 1 p.m., starring Loretta Young, Cary Grant, David Niven.
The Thin Man (1934) at 5 p.m., starring William Powell, Myrna Loy.

And just for fun — in case you need a break from all the corny Christmas hoo-hah — starting at 7 p.m. on the 25th there are four classic back-to-back Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers musicals: Top Hat (1935) at 7 p.m., Swing Time (1936) at 9 p.m., Shall We Dance (1937) at 11 p.m. and Carefree (1938) at 1 a.m. My personal favorites are Top Hat and Swing Time. Fred and Ginger appear at right.
Thank you.
