BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Billy Wilder directed this 1950 film classic about film classics, and cast it perfectly. Former silent film star Gloria Swanson plays former silent film star Norma Desmond. Former silent film director Erich von Stroheim plays former silent film director Max Von Mayerling, and William Holden plays the young screenwriter who enters their sheltered private world of memories and delusions. Oh, and there’s another young actor deserving of attention: Jack Webb, just before he took on the TV role of Joe Friday on Dragnet. Hard to believe? As always here on TVWW: Just the facts, ma’am.

 
  
 
 

ABC, 9:00 p.m. ET

Game 4. The Golden State Warriors trounced the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first two games of this championship series, when it had the home court – and the Cavaliers did the same to the Warriors in Game 3, when the contest was played in Cleveland. That’s the setting for tonight’s Game 4 as well, but there’s no guarantee the home-court advantage will continue to be… an advantage.

 
  
 
 

HBO, 10:00 p.m. ET

This week’s scheduled guests include California Sen. Barbara Boxer, musician Tom Morello, and journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin.

 
  
 
 

Showtime, 10:00 p.m. ET

No, it’s not April 1 again already. This is a real documentary title, of an actual film in which people with the surname Hitler are interviewed about the impact of that name on their everyday lives. I can already imagine the VH1 spinoff: Meet the Kardashians.

 
  
 
 

TCM, 10:00 p.m. ET

This is a movie with a plot that feels utterly current It’s about a news organization, and an ambitious reporter, so caught up in the fervor of covering breaking news that news judgment and morality become increasingly clouded in the frenzy of media competition. The fact that this movie was made in 1951, and still hits all the same points and concerns as a modern remake would cover, says something frightening. The technology may change, but human nature – the bad as well as the good – is much more constant. Kirk Douglas stars.
