Wednesday evening, Turner Classic Movies is running The Projectionist. If you've never seen this movie, see this movie. If you have seen this movie, you're going to want to see it again. It's on at 11:30 PM in most areas but check your listing to make sure before you set a DVR or VCR or even tune in to watch it live.
The Projectionist was made for about a dollar-eighty in 1971 and it stars Chuck McCann, Rodney Dangerfield and Ina Balin. Chuck plays a film projectionist who lives way too much of his life in fantasy, imagining himself as the heroes of the movies he runs. It makes for a funny but touching story with Chuck giving one of the greatest performances you'll ever see. And in case you care, it was Rodney Dangerfield's motion picture debut.
I don't want to write much more than that because I don't want to ruin it for anyone who hasn't seen it yet. Just watch this one. It's been a cult favorite for years and if you tune in, you'll probably find yourself joining the cult.
