■ TCM SPOTLIGHT: GROWING UP ON SCREEN: “DEAN STOCKWELL & KURT RUSSELL”

TCM, beginning at 8 p.m. Catch a Classic! The film lineup featuring works from actors whose faces have been famous onscreen from childhood to adulthood begins with four films from Dean Stockwell. First up is one of Stockwell’s earliest films, the musical comedy “Anchors Aweigh” (1945), which Stockwell made while under contract with MGM and not yet 10 years old, and in which he shares the screen with Frank Sinatra, Gene Kelly and Kathryn Grayson. Stockwell was still quite young when he made the next film, “The Green Years” (1946), a drama in which he portrays the younger version of Tom Drake’s main character, an Irish orphan in Scotland. Next, Stockwell, now in his teens, plays another orphan and gets second billing behind Errol Flynn in “Kim” (1950), an adaptation of the Rudyard Kipling novel. Finally, an adult Stockwell gives a creepy performanc­e in “The Dunwich Horror” (1970), based on H.P. Lovecraft’s novella. Continuing from here into early the next morning, you can enjoy some of onetime child star and current A-lister Kurt Russell’s film work at various ages. While as a child and young adult actor Russell is most remembered for starring in popular liveaction Disney films of the 1960s and ’70s, ownership rights likely prohibit TCM from showing those. But you can still enjoy his earlier work in “Guns of Diablo” (1964), a Charles Bronson-led Western costarring a 14-year-old Russell. Next, in the comedy/ period drama “Fools’ Parade” (1971), Russell, in his early 20s, costars with James Stewart and George Kennedy. Finally, enjoy the cult-classic 1987 romantic comedy “Overboard,” the second film to pair Russell, then in his 30s, with longtime real-life partner Goldie Hawn.
