TCM Film Festival Personal Picks April 12th - 15th in Hollywood, CA


Its that time of year again!! Turner Classic Movies returns to put on their amazing four day film festival filled with classic movie screenings.  This years guest star appearances will include two of my favorite actresses: Kim Novak and Liza Minelli. 


 The past few years I've sadly missed the festivities due to living out of state but not any more!  I'm BEYOND thrilled to now be living less than 45 minuets from the event.  With gas prices over $4 I'm glad to have saved the FREE LA Metro cards that my husband and I were sent when we first moved here.  I mean seriously.  Why deal with the 405 and parking if I dont have to???

For those who didnt want to bust out a few hundred dollars for the full 4 day pass,  individual tickets are being sold for $20 a piece at each location right before the event. Students with valid ID get 50% off.  Here's my list of personal picks for the weekend (sourced from festival schedule)
