Could be Cinefiles but I’ll follow Dave’s lead and post this as a TV event…
Tivo Alert TCM Wednesday 6/17 6:00AM 1968
Tragi-comic revisoning of the famous debacle as a function of over-invested aristocracy vs. professional soldierly. Probably looks better now than when it came out, with proto-Python animations of 19th century political cartoons and scenery chewing turns by Brit greats like Gielgud and Howard, along with a very young Vanessa Redgrave.
Those who know history are doomed to laugh at it. (and fashion lovers get both Lords Raglan and Cardigan in one flick…)

what i saw dec 25 1979. on tcm tonight at 230am.
once again contractual obligations ruin live tennis. nbc has the final weekend rights to the french open but refuse to preempt soap operas to show a roger federer semifinals match. and since they own the rights neither espn which has been airing the rest of the tournament, nor THE TENNIS CHANNEL, which is forced to air some long forgotten tour event only to rebroadcast the semis later this afternoon. ultimately i dont know who is to blame, but it sure aint fan friendly. way to grow your sport, tennis.
federer is down two sets to one right now.
