TCM In May

Time for The Hollywood Revue's monthly preview of programming on Turner Classic Movies.  The Star of the Month for May is Clark Gable, with his movies every Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning and afternoon.  Yes, that is Gable above with Joan Crawford.  What, did you think he always had the mustache?  Also on deck are two nights of movies made in 1967, and a monster movie marathon every Thursday night.
