EXCELLENT movie - why doesn't TCM show it??

I got a copy of this, and wow, what an EXCELLENT movie (directed by Kazan.)

TCM keeps replaying the same movies over and over. Why can't they show this??

Why can't they? Too hard to get the rights to run it?

Try FMC on 02/15/2011.

I'm watching it on FXM right now. Maybe Fox has exclusive rights.

Well, it is a Fox movie. Not they that should matter, TCM shows many of their movies.
We just saw it on FXM last week, so it's still in their lineup.

Sometimes it's rights, but sometimes I just think whoever's in charge of programming just doesn't like certain things. For example, they never show any Jeff Chandler movies.
