Yeah, it seems like they've been playing a film of his here and there sporadically for the past two years or so, but what made me take notice was Osborne writing that they will try to dedicate more time to his films, etc. which leads me to believe that maybe they'll either do a day of his films or, miracle or miracles, actually make him star of the month (although, I'm a bit loathe to believe the latter).

Still, it should be interesting and let's hope they follow through. At least *something* is in writing :-)

Joanne--certainly long in coming, and he's right, for who Ty was and his box office traffic, it IS surprising that there isn't a TP cult.

(But another thought, would Ty really have wanted that?)

I'm going to the TCM Classic Film Festival later this month. If I manage to have an up close and personal moment with Robert Osborne, I'll certainly mention Tyrone Power to him! Osborne appeared in person at Atlanta's Plaza Theater's screening of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington some weeks ago but after his opening remarks I didn't see him again.

I wonder if they could run a widescreen version of Abandon Ship.
