There's lots to check out on Turner Classic Movies this weekend...
After a morning of B-movies like The Cosmic Monsters, Queen from Outer Space and Phantom of the Rue Morgue, TCM will showcase a number of heavy hitters like Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, the original Rocky starring Sylvester Stallone, King Solomon's Mines with Deborah Kerr and John Huston's stark drama The Misfits.
Night owls and insomniacs can see James Dean and Natalie Wood in Nicholas Ray's classic Rebel Without a Cause, followed by Stanley Kramer's race-themed drama Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? starring Sidney Poitier, Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn.
On Sunday, TCM will air Busby Berkeley's Strike Up the Band with Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland, and Norman Jewison's romantic comedy The Thrill of It All, starring Doris Day and James Garner. Later that night, two films starring and directed by Jack Webb are featured: the 1957 military drama, The D.I., and 1959's -30-, which centered around the night shift at a city newspaper.
