Where Then Meets Now

Unlike any other film before it (and maybe since), THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES ('46) brought awareness to the issues faced by veterans, issues that were often unseen or ignored. The film won seven Oscars including Best Picture.


Oscar-nominee Brian Tyree Henry joins Ben Mankiewicz tonight for Two for One with his dream double feature IMITATION OF LIFE at 8pm ET followed by THE LEARNING TREE. In this clip, he explains the impact the Douglas Sirk classic had on him when he first saw it.


Legendary Sound Designer Ben Burtt shares the stories behind the iconic sounds of RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK. See the TCM premiere of the film tonight at 10:00pm ET, and then on our app, Watch TCM until 11/15.
