Spent most of the day, watching. Lots of fun, watching Jimmy Cagney as a young man in "The Irish In Us" from 1935 (and my God, that championship boxing match at the end!). My favorite surprise: The "1921" segment from "The Rising Of The Moon" movie, with the stunning interaction of two "nuns" and a condemned IRA convict, just minutes before his scheduled hanging by the Brits.

Outstanding work by Turner Classic Movies! Hope they show the same set of films next year---I'll damn sure be watching.
