“I don’t think any of us thought it was destined to be a hit. I thought it would probably play drive-ins on the summer circuit, like any other teen movie.” — @RealRonHoward. #RonHoward#AmericanGraffiti#1970s#movies

Settling in for the restored Rio Bravo by Howard Hawks which charmingly pits John Wayne against Angie Dickinson. She’s here for the Q & A at opening night of TCM film fest in LA.
The legendary Angie Dickinson shared behind the scenes stories about the making of RIO BRAVO including how Frank Sinatra was almost cast during a touching conversation at a screening of the film at #TCMFF.

Significantly, David Zaslav made it to the @tcmfilmfest last night. He said @TCM "is the history of our country" and thinks of three films that are in the spirit of Warner Bros. as "we move forward": 'Black Legion,' 'Confessions of a Nazi Spy' and 'Gentleman's Agreement.'
What a treat to get to talk to Angie Dickinson to preview the TCM Classic Film Festival, which runs from Thursday through Sunday in Hollywood. She'll be there to talk about the 4K restoration of Rio Bravo. https://t.co/mRIk8WX6c9
