I find it intriguing that on this particular date in history, the #TCM daytime theme is "Presidential Medal of Freedom Honorees" and the films selected feature said honorees depicting narcissistic demagogues, irresponsible media, racism, and resistance to fascism and literal Nazis. #TCMParty 🤔

Fans of the recent #TCM #ThinMan marathon might want to set their DVRs tonight to record #ItsAWonderfulWorld, a screwball delight also directed by "One-Take Woody" Van Dyke, featuring a Ben Hecht script, peak Claudette Colbert, and James Stewart as he was just becoming a star. #TCMParty
