Ever since TCM started to show this film in July 2006, May 2007 they have chosen to air it on Sundays at 2 am. What a terrible time for those living on the East Coast of the US. The film will never reach a wider audience on the East Coast being shown so late. But it is better than nothing. Thanks that they even show it.
I love watching this film for Ana Torrent´s incredible performance as a child actress. The symbolism in the film makes it quite interesting.

We can all record with a dvr or an old vcr, however, there is something special and different about watching a film at the time it is being broadcasted. You also get Robert Osborne´s introduction, which sometimes is missed if you program the film to record.

i did stay up for it, and it was worth it. what an incredible film. i almost started to fall asleep with about 20 minutes left, so i just got off of my couch and sat on a hard bench and that did the trick

Very good strategy. :))
Let´s ask TCM that they show it at an earlier time next time.

Yeah, I watched it too. Was my third time watching it, and as I was thinking of going to bed I happened to catch it near the beginning. But, of course I had to watch the whole thing. What a great film! Truly timeless.
