Tv Movies & more (saved)
by ReelRarities | created - 31 Jan 2013 | updated - 1 week ago | PublicMy list of movie-saves, some from 50's but mostly 60's & up that wish were available as dvd release but sadly are not... or once were and went out of print. We especially enjoy the 70's 'suspicion & suspense', 'teen trauma', and 'tragic but true' made for tv movies that started airing in the 70's as a 'movie of the week'.
The ABC Movie of the Week and others that followed brought us some of the best... casts of wonderful actors we'd often only seen on the big screen, now in our homes... and these TvMs always had something going on that sucked you in and kept you watching :)
When Looking at my lists please note there is a "Sort By" option, I prefer to look at titles by release date, earliest to latest... but can choose other options to view by using the Sort By option ;)
