Saw this great "Essential" film last night on TCM.

Directed by George Stevens, starring Cary Grant and based on a Rudyard Kipling poem, this was a revelation.

Outstanding cinematography, superb editing and action, action, Action! make this one a must-see.
This movie slipped by me- never saw in my 45 years on earth, and praise goes to TCM for showcasing it.
It's a "Regimental" movie, and it deals with the idea of what makes a soldier, during Britain's colonial rule.


Other movies I've seen on TCM this year:

Anatomy of a Murder- Brilliant Otto Preminger film, with incredible ensemble acting.
Gidget- cute Sandra Dee movie. If you were wondering where Tarantino got "Big Kahuna" from, it was Gidget. lol
M.- the Joseph Losey remake, not the Fritz Lang. Creepy creepy flick, Mang...
Edge of the City- awesome Sidney Poitier/John Cassavetes drama.
THE GREEN BERETS-a shitty John Wayne vietnam flick- too premature!!
Easter Parade- dazzling confection of a movie, with stunning dance numbers, starring Judy Garland & Fred Astaire.
and
The Wizard of Oz- one of my favorite movies from MGM.
