Any discussion of FASCINATING YEARS IN FILM would not be complete without a mention of 1971 - a year with a lot of innovative, daring, violent, visually dazzling films- where the spirit of THE GOLDEN ERA had a FULL ON COLLISION with the present, and I don't think any film encapsulates how MARVELOUSL...

At the risk of sounding like Jimmy Carter, there was a "malaise" that settled in over films in the second half of the '70s. This is not to say that there weren't some excellent titles that were still released in these years. What is true though is though that there were a convergence of e...

I forgot about that!

Poor Debra Paget...

It’s cool, she lived.

Howcum Brooklyn is a fairly popular name but Queens, Bronx, Manhattan, and Staten Island aren't? It's because there is a character named Brooklyn (actually Brook Lynn) on General Hospital. Soap operas have driven the popularity of many names. One of my cousins was named after a character from DAYS ...

Yes, I had a great-aunt named Gertrude, an aunt named Ethel. My parents were introduced by a woman named Edna. When I was looking up Max Showalter, his parents were Ira and Elma Showalter. We have to remember that Gertrude and Ethel were the Taylor and Madison of their day. Or that Taylor and Madis...

Restoration (1995) : Why did I even bother? what was especially weird was this came out at THE HEIGHT of MEG RYAN'S STARDOM and my sister wanted to see this SO BAD (she was a history major and loved the time period), but this was also the HEIGHT OF ANNOYING RELEASE HABITS BY "INDEPENDENT"...

THANK you KINGRAT and CINEMAINTERNATIONAL for your 1978 RUNDOWNS . Really though, in the years 1927-1999 , I would say there are obviously some INCREDIBLE YEARS like 1939 AND 40 AND 1962, some amazingly innovative years like 1971 or 1968 and some years with no great but lots of good films (1995 or ...

1.Alma is Spanish for “soul.”
2. I want for”Duane” to crack the MOST POPULAR BABY NAMES TOP TEN so bad.

**AND AS FAR AS I KNOW very little of the footage exists or if it does- it;s stashed away, because the youtube deleted scenes are recreations using the shooting script and production stills as well as some clips from THE TRAILER (a lot of cut scenes ended up in THE TRAILER) https://www.youtube.com/...

I wonder why all the cuts to [DEATH BECOMES HER]? Time? I enjoyed the film but haven't seen it since it came out. YEAH, I'm sure time had something to do with it, because it looks like a good 45 minutes of deleted footage hit the floor. THE SCENE OF MADELEINE AND ERNEST'S WEDDING WAS MUCH LONGER HE...

ALSO JUST THROWING THIS OUT THERE, BUT I was born in 1978 and- I don't know if it's a coincidence or not- but I have not seen HARDLY ANY FILMS FROM THAT YEAR- and the ones I have seen (JAWS 2, GREASE- numerous times and not by choice, SUPERMAN and HALLOWEEN) are almost outliers. i don't think there'...

I actually rewatched DEATH BECOMES HER for the first time in YEARS a couple weeks ago and didn't post a review because I didn't want to open a rabbit hole (it's a film i can talk about A LOT), but really- for any of you fans of the movie, go to YOUTUBE and type in DEATH BECOMES HER DELETED SCENES or...

Jeanette Basinger, for one, has discussed how difficult it is for actresses in their later careers to play ordinary women. Instead, they play Exaggerated Women. Meryl Streep's later career also has some Exaggerated Women , as in THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA and JULIE AND JULIA, as enjoyable as these films...

so, I watched DAUGHTER OF THE DRAGON (1931 ) on that certain cable network because I am fascinated by ASIAN CULTURE, MISTILY-LENSED PARAMOUNT "EXOTICS" OF THE 30'S, and OUTLANDISH HORROR AND SCI FI of the 1930s- the last of which this film kindasorta is for about 15 minutes, because DR FU ...
