Rustler’s Rhapsody (KCOP Wednesday at 10 a.m.)...
Rustler’s Rhapsody (KCOP Wednesday at 10 a.m.) Hugh Wilson’s 1985 comedy is a lamentably overlooked joy, a sweet, affectionate (and highly knowledgeable) spoof of old low-budget Republic and Columbia Westerns. Tom Berenger is perfectly cast as Rex O’Herlihan, the Singing Cowboy.
The Glass Menagerie (KTTV Thursday at noon) This is the respected 1973 David Susskind version of the Tennessee Williams drama in which Katharine Hepburn made a much-heralded TV acting debut as Amanda Wingfield.
The Long Good Friday (Showtime Friday at 3:50 a.m.) This 1980 British gangster picture is one of the best in the genre, dealing with a bloody underworld rivalry and starring Bob Hoskins as a smart and steely criminal kingpin.
