SPECIAL: Remember a few years ago, when TCM presented a long-lost live TV production of The Glass Menagerie, starring Shirley Booth? Well, tonight TCM is at it again – and good for them. This time, the once-lost, now-found Golden Age TV classic is a 1958 production of Wuthering Heights, starring Richard Burton and Rosemary Harris. Burton starred in it the year before appearing in the 1959 movie version of the John Osborne play, Look Back in Anger – which TCM also televises tonight, at 10 p.m. ET, immediately following this rare TV gem. For my full story about this long-lost Wuthering Heights production and its sparkling new showcase, see Bianculli’s Blog.
