Leeper and Evelyn C. Leeper) Since it's October, there is perhaps a surfeit of horror films on TCM next month. But as noted a few weeks ago, they are also running a slate of political films, both narrative and documentary, every Friday evening into Saturday morning, some with guest presenters: Friday, October 4 – Night Five 8:00 PM - The Times of Harvey Milk (1984) with Sally Field 10:00 PM - The Best Man (1964) with Josh Mankiewicz 12:00 AM - I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang (1932) with Lonnie Bunch 1:45 AM - City Hall (1996) 3:45 AM - Strike (1925) 5:15 AM - High and Low (1963) Friday, October 11 - Night Six 8:00 PM - A Face in the Crowd (1957) with Barry Levinson 10:15 PM - Wag the Dog (1997) with Diane Lane 12:00 AM - The Murder of Fred Hampton (1971) with Abby Phillip 1:45 AM - JFK (1991) 5:00 AM - Z (1969) 7:15 AM - Night and Fog (1956) Friday, October 18 - Night Seven 8:00 PM - The Birth of a Nation (1915) with Jamelle Bouie 11:30 PM - Lincoln (2012) with Robert Gates 2:15 AM - Malcolm X (1992) 6:00 AM - Primary (1960) Friday, October 25 - Night Eight 8:00 PM - All the President’s Men (1976) with Steven Spielberg 10:30 PM - Citizen Kane (1941) with Frank Luntz 12:45 AM - Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975) with Lizzie Borden 4:15 AM - Olympia Part One: Festival of Nations (1938) 6:15 AM - Olympia Part Two: Beauty of the Festival (1938) Friday, November 1 - Night Nine 8:00 PM - Being There (1979) with Andy Garcia 10:30 PM - The Candidate (1972) with Kaitlan Collins 12:30 AM - Harlan County, U.S.A. (1976) with Lee Grant 2:15 AM - The Manchurian Candidate (1962) 4:00 AM - Weekend (1967) We are adding some other films they are running that may not be entirely political in the traditional sense, but they all have some political elements. SUNDAY, October 6 1:30 AM The Killing Fields (1984) 5:45 PM A Face in the Crowd (1957) 10:00 PM El Norte (1984) TUESDAY, October 22 12:30 AM Doctor Zhivago (1965) TUESDAY, October 29 7:45 AM A Tale of Two Cities (1935) If I had to pick one film to recommend, it would probably be Z, which gets less attention than most of the others, though honestly, it is hard to choose among all of these.
