The Turner Classic Movie Film Festival (TCMFF) in April 2022 was my first experience covering a large event as a member of the media. I saw fourteen films during the four-day event, out of which I was hard-pressed to choose my favorite. Nevertheless, I can now confidently say that my favorite experience of the festival was “The Flame and the Arrow” from 1950.
