Splendor in the Grass
TCM, 5:45pm
Catch a Classic!
Elia Kazan’s Splendor in the Grass (1961) tackles teenage sexuality with a frankness that was revolutionary for its time — and remains startlingly honest today. Natalie Wood stars as Deanie Loomis, a Kansas high school girl in the 1920s whose passionate relationship with Bud Stamper (Warren Beatty, in his film debut) is sabotaged by parental pressure and societal expectations. Wood earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress, capturing Deanie’s mental breakdown with heartbreaking authenticity, and William Inge won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. The film’s title comes from Wordsworth’s poem about lost innocence, and Kazan earns that reference — this is a deeply felt story about how we can never quite recapture what we’ve lost.

Davis earned an Oscar nomination for this tear-jerker, and Brent’s understated performance as her devoted physician provides the emotional anchor.

TCM Spotlight: Deep in the Heart of Texas
TCM, beginning at 7:45pm
Catch a Classic
The Lone Star State takes center stage in tonight’s lineup of classic films set in Texas. It starts playfully with the Looney Tunes short Oily Hare (1952), where Bugs Bunny tries to thwart an oil tycoon who wants to drill in his rabbit hole. The tone switches dramatically with the 1956 feature Giant, led by Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson and James Dean (who died before the movie’s release). In the epic drama, which clocks in at more than three hours, a poor ranch hand (Dean) strikes it rich when he discovers oil, spurring a decades-long rivalry with a wealthy rancher (Hudson) and his socialite wife (Taylor).

He’s not usually the kind of guy who loses control, but in this case, he does.” The result? A car accident while he’s on duty. While waiting to learn the victim’s condition, he spirals. This episode also introduces Riley’s wife, Tara (Cadden Jones). “I love anything that digs into the backstory and the personal life and the overall character of Riley,” says Scott. “We see Tara try to offer support, but he’s so thrown by what’s transpired, he can’t see clearly.”

TCM, beginning at 8pm
Catch a Classic!
A themed night spotlights the work of cult director Roger Corman — the “King of the B-movies” — to commemorate the 100th anniversary of his birth on April 5, 1926. The lineup kicks off with the TCM premiere of the 2021 documentary Roger Corman: Pope of Pop Cinema, which not only celebrates his work in the low-budget genre, but also reveals a more serious side of the filmmaker: as a mentor to directors such as Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola and Ron Howard. But the evening is mostly about Corman classics, starting with 1959’s horror/comedy A Bucket of Blood, about a lowly busboy who, after accidentally killing a cat and covering it in clay to hide the crime, ends up a murderer who creates “sculptures” from his victims. More murders are on the menu in 1960’s The Little Shop of Horrors, where a plant with an insatiable appetite for blood forces a floral assistant to begin killing humans to feed it. Things get more serious in 1957’s Teenage Doll, a brooding film noir where a member of the teen girl gang the Black Widows is killed, prompting them to seek revenge on the leader of the rival Vandals, who they believe is responsible for the murder. Up next is Corman’s directorial debut — not a horror film, but a Western set during the Civil War, 1955’s Five Guns West. The lineup concludes with 1955’s The Beast With a Million Eyes.
