Where is Song of Bernadette, her Oscar winning performance? Where is Portrait of Jennie? Perhaps TCM should re-evaluate their selection. It is not too late to change the list!

Perhaps TCM should re-evaluate their selection. It is not too late to change the list!

Though I do like 'The Wild Heart' also if only for more inclusion of Brian Easdales soundtrack and the odd scene not included in GTE. As you've said any Jennifer is better than none.

Thanks! The text has been amended. Thanks again. I need glasses... But I'll say that for myself: I did wonder why Jourdan looked blondish in the photo... Damn!

It is Alf Kjellin! It’s not Louis Jourdan in the “Madame Bovary” photo. It is Alf Kjellin!

I've only seen the butchered American version, "The Wild Heart." TCM does accept suggestions, so it might be a good idea to contact them and ask for GtE. As for the movies being shown on TCM, with the exception of "Duel in the Sun" they're certainly not Jennifer Jones' best showcases -- but then again, better three minor Jones efforts than none at all... In fact, I wish someone somewhere would show "Angel, Angel Down We Go" and "The Idol," two of her worst films, but again -- Jennifer Jones is in them and that's enough for me to want to check them out again.

Certainly the best by a mile showing the British countryside and it's people. I noticed most of the comments on the films to be shown either have low public esteme or a finding fault in other ways, then why show them. From a loyal fan. Thank you for this oppertunity.
