The entries include Casablanca tonight at 8 ET, the 1918 silent war movie (and first Oscar winner as Best Film) Wings on Sunday (pictured), and The Great Escape, The Dirty Dozen, and Battle of the Bulge, all on Memorial Day.

Toy Story 4 is available right now on Disney+, and for streaming video rental on Amazon, YouTube, and elsewhere. But today, in a three-movie marathon on Freeform, you can the first three Toy Story Pixar films, beginning at 4:55 p.m. ET. On a holiday weekend when lots of kids are around and restless – which, these days, isn’t any different from any other time, I suppose – a triple feature Toy Story telecast should generate a lot of Buzz. And Woody.

Directed by Martin Scorsese and shown originally on PBS’s American Masters in 2005, this lengthy documentary is an excellent, eye-opening, and musically generous artistic biography of Bob Dylan. He’s a notoriously elusive subject, but No Direction Home pins him down about as much as you can – and even has his cooperation. Sometimes, that weakens a documentary. This time, it strengthens it. He’s invisible now, he’s got no secrets to conceal.
