That's enough movies for now. It's time for some lunch.

Guess I'll nuke some leftover brisket we got from Famous Dave's.

Today we will be enjoying the wonderful work of Henry Fonda........

The choices are many, but The Grapes of Wrath from 1940 will definitely be one of them.

Let the movie watching begin.....

Is Sometimes A Great Notion on your playlist for today? It's adapted from Ken Kesey's novel.

A little late but.............

September 10, 1955 ~ 60 years ago today JOHN WAYNE appeared in a video to introduce a brand new Western drama premiering on CBS. The star of this new Western TV series was a good friend of Duke's, James Arness. Gunsmoke stands as the United States' longest-running prime time, live-action drama with 635 episodes.

September 10, 2015 on the ENCORE Westerns the original video by John Wayne and the first episode of Gunsmoke will be shown at 8:00 pm PDT/EDT.

Season 1, Episode 1: "Matt Gets It" Matt is critically wounded while attempting to arrest super-fast gunman Dan Grat. Grat runs rampant in Dodge while Matt recovers, but is unpleasantly surprised when the recovered marshal challenges him again.

U.S. Marshal Matt Dillon: "If you're gonna to use that gun, you better start on me." This quote by James Arness was heard many times over the course of the 20 season TV series.

Classic Movie Saturday resumes today with a great schedule.

Ragmama and I will be enjoying the work of the late great Spencer Tracy starting with Boys Town from 1938 followed by

Northwest Passage from 1940 and Inherit the Wind from 1960.
