Great Poster Redesigns for TCM Summer Series

We found this at Rope of Silicon, so we'll gladly give them the credit for steering us to TCM's Summer Under the Stars movie series. TCM is the best movie network around, and in August, every day is devoted to a different star, from Cary Grant to Peter Sellers and from Sinatra to Elvis.

The series will also introduce over three dozen new films to the TCM family, classics that are getting their debut on the network in August. To find out which ones, and to get a full schedule, download this PDF. And with no new network shoes and only a handful of cable series up and running in August, it's a great time to revisit some of these films or see them for the first time.

The highlight of the Summer Under the Stars series is this collection of redesigned posters, which includes that gorgeous new take on Jailhouse Rock featured above. Click on any of the images to enlarge them and enjoy.

   

   

   

   

   

 

From left to right, top to bottom, we've got The Magnificent Seven, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, The Grapes of Wrath, The Letter, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, To Catch a Thief, Dr. Strangelove, Gilda, The Big Heat, and High Society.
