Originally Posted By Liberty Belle Yes, I have TCM as well (can't find the original question at the moment to copy and paste). I'm looking forward to this! And no problems with R-rated movies or anything like that. I'm okay with subtitles, although I still have nightmares about the Swedish movie I had to sit through for uni that was set entirely in the snow, and had white subtitles ... (luckily we had a Swedish girl in the class who translated the entire movie for us!) Okay, that was irrelevant, but I have a sort of horrifying flashback to that movie when I think of subtitles.

Classic Movie: The Manchurian Candidate Year Made: 1962 Rating: PG-13 Viewing Date: Mar 15 to Mar 31 Discussion After: Mar 31 Info: The IMDB page: <a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0056218/" target="_blank">http://imdb.com/title/tt005621 8/</a> Believe there were a lot of films I wanted to select but I figured with it being an election year, this may seem relevant. Hopefully you guys will like these choices. Viewers: DAR

Turned it off because I just couldn't stand it. I think that's the only time I've ever done that with a movie. Sorry to derail. Love the choices for March. Tiggirl, did you know there's a Netflix plan that's something like $4.99/month?
