TCM Schedule for Tuesday, June 9: New York in the 70s

Please note that Hitchcock's Saboteur, featuring a memorable performance by Norman Lloyd (still with us at this writing, at 100 years young), and the rarely seen I See a Dark Stranger (alternative title: The Adventuress), starring Deborah Kerr and Trevor Howard, are airing in the wee hours of Tuesday morning. Both movies are also available for DVD rental via Netflix, for anyone who misses them this time out or doesn't get TCM.

I'm fairly certain Mean Streets was the first Scorsese film I ever saw (at the student union theater, of course!). What about the rest of you?
