BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

ESPN, 9:00 a.m. ET

In both the men’s and women’s finals this year, Wimbledon has served up a dream match. For the women, it’s not so much that No. 3 seed Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland has made it to the final this year – but that Serena Williams, at age 30, is taking Centre Court in hopes of capturing her fifth Wimbledon title. (If you don't want to watch it live on ESPN, ABC will repeat the match at 3 p.m. ET) Then tomorrow, another former multiple champion, Roger Federer, returns, seeking his seventh – but facing the home country’s favored son, Andy Murray, the first British Wimbledon finalist since 1936.

 
  
 
 

AMC, 11:30 a.m. ET

Although Season 3 of The Walking Dead isn’t arriving until fall, AMC is priming our appetites by showing a two-day marathon of the first two season’s episodes. So start today, and finish tomorrow – and have an all-out zombie jamboree.

 
  
 
 

Encore, 8:00 p.m. ET

This may be the 1,871,473 time this 1964 James Bond film has been shown on television (my count is unofficial, but probably off by no more than 007) – but that won’t stop me from recommending it enthusiastically. Best Bond (Sean Connery), best villain (Gert Frobe as Goldfinger), best henchman (Oddjob), best theme song, best Bond girl (Honor Blackman as Pussy Galore), best plot (invading Fort Knox, but not for the gold), and best image: Shirley Eaton as a gold-painted victim. Somebody move that pillow!

 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Made in 1954, this romantic drama is worth seeing for Katharine Hepburn’s portrayal of an Akron, Ohio, schoolteacher visiting Venice and finding more than one eager suitor. But it’s also worth watching because it was directed by the cinematic visual genius David Lean, who directed the film with an eye on capturing all the beauty and variety of Venice he could pack in each frame.

 
  
 
 

Starz!, 9:00 p.m. ET

The original 2009 Swedish film based on Stieg Larsson’s bestselling novel (the first in a series) starred Michael Nykvist as a journalist investigating a very cold case, and Noomi Rapace as the tattooed, pierced loner who helps him solve the crime. But for America, the movie was recast, and the story refashioned, in this new 2011 adaptation, with Daniel Craig as the journalist, and Rooney Mara (pictured) as the punkish but resourceful computer hacker.
