Devoted Film/Cinema lover & @cinemasentries reviewer who died from sheer amateurism. Shouldn't be on this stupid site. #HarrisWalz2024#TrumpSucks#NeverTrump
@BenMank77@tcm Ben, you are an amazing successor to Robert. I'm sure he's smiling down to you from heaven. You still have that great sense of humor I love so much.
Day one of the 17th @TCM Classic Film Festival in Hollywood. Wanted to honor our first host, the legendary Robert Osborne, the Walter Cronkite of TCM, with a visit to his star on the Walk of Fame. Couldn’t find it, so I settled for his brother. #TCMFF
@markcousinsfilm Happy Birthday Mark! I only came back to you tell that. I hope you're doing well and making great art. I don't use this site too often anymore, but you always have my love and respect.
A notorious box-office failure, Elaine May’s ISHTAR is a Hope and Crosby road movie and prescient satire of America's policy in the Middle East.
See ISHTAR presented by the film's songwriter Paul Williams today at 2:30pm PT at Chinese Multiplex House 6. #TCMFF
@BenMank77 Hi, Ben. I just came back here to this awful site to wish a very Happy 59th Birthday. Forgive me for revealing your age. You look way younger. Stay a handsome and dedicated film whisperer. ✨❤️🎬🎞️🎂
Oscar-nominated filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson shot ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER on Vistavision -- a widescreen movie format from the 1950s used to film classics such as THE SEARCHERS.
Anderson explains the impact John Ford's film had on him. See THE SEARCHERS on 1/31 at 5:45pm ET.
One of the best Oscars speeches of all time: Stanley Donen, director of SINGIN' IN THE RAIN, FUNNY FACE, CHARADE, etc., winning an Honorary Award in 1997.
Kyle, I just disagree. Everyone looked nuts. After I got over the shock of the politics - of the “wait, these are the people I’m supposed to be rooting for?” - it became this deeply moving, funny movie about dads & daughters, growing up, and kids becoming who they are.
Thanks largely to Patty Jenkins and Tony Goldwyn, this story on @CBSSunday Morning turned into something pretty interesting. I remain an enormous fan of both of them.
The Oscars In Memoriam ignored him but I cannot. He was my friend. I put him in five films.
In early January I buried James “PJ” Ransone after he committed suicide…
He was a complex, funny, talented, and undeniably reckless person. He was wildly alive and deeply loved.
I know he said some infuriating things online, but the last time I saw him, he cried with regret for all of that. “I didn’t mean to hurt anyone’s feelings,” he said.
Please don’t trash him here.
He is dearly missed.
Valerie Perrine died today after a long struggle w/ Parkinson’s. She was a fine actor - and an interesting one. Valerie, like almost every actor, wasn’t rich. If you’re inclined, the link below will help pay for burial at Forrest Lawn, her last wish. Thx https://t.co/Qv6mmnoZzo
