TCM to Honor Karl Malden July 10th

Tuesday July 7, 2009
Turner Classic Movies honors the late Karl Malden this Friday night, filling its primetime schedule with three of his finest and best-known performances:
8:00 p.m. Eastern On The Waterfront
10:00 p.m. A Streetcar Named Desire
12:15 a.m Birdman of Alcatraz
Malden, the very definition of a character actor, took hom his one and only Oscar for his role as Blanche Dubois's hopeless, hapless suitor in Streetcar, a role he created on Broadway. He stars in both Streetcar and On the Waterfront with the young Marlon Brando; and in Birdman with Burt Lancaster.
