More box guide nonsense

TCM is showing Tiger Shark tomorrow morning at 6:15 AM ET. I've mentioned the movie briefly in the past; it's got Edward G. Robinson playing a Portuguese-American fisherman. However, my box guide lists the program in that time slot as a 2003 documentary! (IMDb doesn't list any 2003 documentaries about tiger sharks that I could find.)

As for Edward G. Robinson's many ethnic roles, one I didn't mention in my post two years ago was The Hatchet Man, in which Robinson plays -- a Chinese-American gangster! Not only that, but his wife is the equally Chinese Loretta Young. The Hatchet Man is airing at 9:00 AM tomorrow on TCM.
