The dates for the 15th TCM Classic Film Festival have been set. Next year's festival will take place from April 18 to April 21 2024 at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel has served as the headquarter of the film festival since the very beginning, which is fitting given its place in the history of Hollywood. It was the site of the first Academy Awards ceremony in 1929. Among the hotel's guests have been such stars as Charlie Chaplin, Montgomery Clift, Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, Mary Martin, and many others. Marilyn Monroe lived at the hotel for two years early in her career.
The theme of the 15th TCM Classic Film Festival is "Most Wanted: Crime and Justice in Film."
Looking forward to seeing what movies will be screened this time! And I didn't know that Marilyn lived at the Roosevelt. I love this image.
