[Robert Ryan Day on TCM!]

TCM shows John Sturges and Millard Kaufman, Don McGuire, Howard Breslin’s Bad Day at Black Rock (1955) at 8 a.m. ET Friday Morning. It’s part of Ernest Borgnine Day.

This is one of Robert Ryan’s best Racist Bad Guy roles, which he relished. Ernie Borgnine is a fellow villain. The best scene is when Spencer Tracy beats him up.

I saw an interview in which Ernest Borgnine says, “Bob Ryan had a hard time staying in the scene with Spencer Tracy.” Meaning no one could steal a scene from Spencer Tracy.
