It’s Tuesday.
Choo Choo Tuesday.
With the days rather blending together without distinction for basically the last 12 months, we feel it’s important to regularly remind ourselves of the day.
On this fine Tuesday – if it really is Tuesday – there is not much to do this evening other than to kick back and enjoy something on the TV.
We can definitely help you out here with our various, different, intelligent, cromulent and above all else, loquacious film picks.
But if you’re set in your ways and simply want to watch whatever is presented to you by the TV gods this evening, here are the best movies on TV.
