Welcome to episode 148 of the Movies Past and Present podcast.

New Movie Catch-up

Classic Cinema Corner

This year’s TCM Classic Film festival did not disappoint! Huge thanks to TCM another fantastic experience of seeing classic movies on the big screen, they way they were all intended to be seen.

See a full list of the 17 movies I saw during the Festival on Letterboxd.

Letty Lynton (MGM, 1932) is now on Blu-ray Disc! Buy it here.

And if you watch the great Swing Time (RKO, 1936) starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, make sure to also watch this documentary produced by TCM which contextualizes the heinous practice of blackface performance.

Thanks for Tuning In!
