Premise
The criteria for films that air on TCM during the festival is that each feature that TCM airs can either be an Oscar winner or nominee. Films that air, of course, are those that TCM holds the broadcast rights to at the time, but mostly they come from the classic Warner/Turner/MGM library.

Famous quotes containing the word premise:
“We have to give ourselves—men in particular—permission to really be with and get to know our children. The premise is that taking care of kids can be a pain in the ass, and it is frustrating and agonizing, but also gratifying and enjoyable. When a little kid says, “I love you, Daddy,” or cries and you comfort her or him, life becomes a richer experience.”
—Anonymous Father. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
