THE MUSIC MAN
TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET
The plot of this 1962 movie ends on the 4th of July, but that’s not why I’m recommending it here. I’m recommending it because any time you can see this movie musical uninterrupted, and in its full wide-screen format, it’s a nostalgic journey well worth taking. Robert Preston and Shirley Jones star – and yes, that’s Ron Howard lithping his way through “Gary, Indiana.”
