TCM Schedule for Monday October 1 - Star of the Month: Spencer Tracy (Original Post)

(16,984 posts)1. I caught a bit of "Me and My Gal."
And I saw Robert Osborne's introduction. It's a Raoul Walsh-directed film starring Spencer Tracy, and tonight was its TCM premiere.
It's also pre-Code, which means we're nowhere near Father Flanagan territory.
