On Monday Night, TCM is having Alfred Hitchcock night. It starts at 8 p.m. ET with Notorious (1946), followed by The Wrong Man (1956), I Confess (1953), The 39 Steps (1935), The Lady Vanishes (1938), and The Girl Was Young (1937).

I recommend I Confess with Montgomery Clift and Ann Baxter. Clift plays a Canadian priest who had been in love with Baxter, but finds himself charged with murder. The catch is the killer had confessed the crime to Clift, which he cannot reveal due to sanctity of confession.

The first movie sounds like a future "Hunter Biden Story" biopic.
The rest---possible movie titles of his old man's future biography on film:

"The Wrong Man(To be President)"

"I Confess(What Led Up To Joe Biden's Guilty Plea for Bribery)"

"The 39 Steps(From The Helicopter On the White House Lawn to the White House)Were the Longest Ones of My Life Some Days."

"The Lady Vanishes(The Tara Reid and Joe Biden Story)"

"The Girl Was Young(no extra description needed)"

Same old same old. A marathon of the HITCHCOCK PRESENTS episodes directed by Hitch would be more interesting, even if a lot of them weren't all that great (Vincent Price did one, and said in an interview that Hitchcock slept in his chair through most of the shooting, only giving the actors one bit of advice- "A little faster!"). The best ones Hitch did were probably "Breakdown"(the first one made, a classic with Joe Cotten) and "Revenge" (the first episode aired, with Ralph Meeker, and a good example of pure Hitchcock style). -RM
