Turner Classic Movies will remember the life and career of actor Andy Griffith on Wednesday, July 18. Veteran of the big and small screen, Griffith passed away this morning at the age of 86.

I’ve actually only seen one of these films, but I cannot recommend A Face in the Crowd enough. Actually, I believe TCM is showing the film on July 5th as well.
