31 DAYS OF OSCAR
February 12, 2016  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

All this month, TCM has been leading up to the Academy Awards telecast by showing movies, moviemakers and stars that have either won or been nominated for Oscars. I mention it now only because tonight’s lineup is a quartet of movies that, taken together, are an almost unfairly strong evening of cinematic entertainment. Two Dustin Hoffman standout movies start things off, with 1982’s Tootsie at 8 p.m. ET and 1979’s Kramer vs. Kramer at 10 ET, followed by two Robert De Niro classics: 1978’s The Deer Hunter at midnight ET and 1990’s Goodfellas at 3:15 a.m. ET. And watch for Meryl Streep as the unofficial bridge: She can be seen in both Kramer vs. Kramer (pictured) and The Deer Hunter.
