Sad tidings for the #StarTrekDS9 family. He was the diamond standard for Jem’Hadar. I made sure to make it down to the set to speak with him. A very impressive actor and human being.
"Witness" (1985) Directed by Peter Weir. Starring #HarrisonFord, Kelly McGillis and Lukas Haas. Weir, Ford and McGillis all shine in this amazing fish-out-of-water cop #drama set among...the Amish? It sounds ridiculous, but it is one terrific movie. #ComfortFoodCinema
"Moonstruck" (1987). Directed by Norman Jewison. Starring Cher, Nicholas Cage, Vincent
Gardenia and Olympia Dukakis. Quirky, landmark #romcom that helped turn @Cher into a
legit movie star. #Oscar wins for her, Dukakis, and original screenplay. #ComfortFoodCinema#ClassicMovies

and #BestDirector.
The Philadelphia Story (1940) Directed by George Cukor. Starring Cary Grant, #KatharineHepburn, and James Stewart. Stewart had an #Oscar winning turn as he went toe-to-toe and jibe-for-jibe with Hepburn in this slick comedy of high-society #elegance. #ComfortFoodCinema
Chloé Zhao just became the first woman of color to be named Best Director. She is only the second woman ever to win this Oscar, after Kathryn Bigelow (THE HURT LOCKER).
“The Emperor’s New Groove” (2000) Directed by Mark Dindal. Starring David Spade, John Goodman and Eartha Kitt. We could use a little #FridayFun, and what better to put us in a good mood than this sweet and hilarious tale of unlikely friendship. And Kronk. #DisneyMovies
To honor the return of #baseball: "The Pride of the Yankees" (1942) Directed by Sam Wood. Starring Gary Cooper, Teresa Wright, and ... Babe Ruth?! (Yes, Babe Ruth!) It takes some historical liberties, but if you watch it, you’ll be the luckiest viewer on the face of the Earth.
My Left Foot (1989) Directed by Jim Sheridan. Starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Brenda Fricker
and Alison Whelan. The first of Lewis’s three #Oscar turns is his #portrayal of Christy Brown, who
learns to paint and write with his foot after being born with cerebral palsy.
"Quiz Show" (1994) Directed by Robert Redford. Starring Ralph Fiennes, @JohnMTurturro and @RobMorrow_. Fascinating story of the landmark quiz show #scandals of the #1950s.
