IF YOU GET TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES, you’re in for a treat tonight at 11:15, when the channel will be airing Tod Browning’s “Freaks.” At 9 PM it will be showing David Lynch’s “Elephant Man”; I haven’t seen that one, but I have seen “Freaks,” and it’s one of the best horror movies ever made. It’s a moving and furious story of the beautiful aerialist who betrays a circus freak. There are moments of intense sweetness and intense brutality. (I don’t know if TCM will be showing the censored American version, or the, ahem, “uncut” English version.) The direction is just terrific. Go! watch it!

Ooh, and they’re showing “Double Indemnity” at 5. An excuse to plug this fun site!
