THE LODGER
March 11, 2016  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

It’s Merle Oberon month on TCM, and each Friday night is devoted to a mini-festival of her works. It all begins at 8 p.m. ET with The Lodger, a 1944 thriller in which a landlady fears her new tenant may be Jack the Ripper. Oberon doesn’t play the landlady, though – she plays another tenant in the same building, a cabaret singer (pictured). Then, at 10 p.m. ET, comes one of the romantic classics of the ages: 1939’s Wuthering Heights, in which she stars opposite Laurence Olivier.
