As TCM celebrates 20 years: Rethinking the Classics

April 16, 2014 By Kathy Shaidle

MovieMorlocks:

On the other hand, TCM does an extraordinary job of connecting the past to the present.  Take that showing tonight of The Remains of the Day.  It’s followed by a couple of movies from 1935 and 1936, If You Could Only Cook and My Man Godfrey, respectively, that explore the themes of upstairs/downstairs class structures in a much more lighthearted way from another time, though actually taking place at about the same point in history as the story in The Remains of the Day.
