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.

[Mark Cousins @markcousinsfilm]

My birthday today. Cinema, nature, walking. I'm so lucky

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.

[Ben Mankiewicz @BenMank77]

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.

R.I.P. Len Deighton (1929-2026), brilliant master of spy fiction. The favorite for many of us. https://t.co/tWnVa7NpdP

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.

[Michael McKean @MJMcKean]

Yes, we dress like this for every anniversary, not just our twenty seventh. Barry opts for nudity, predictably enough.

[Ben Mankiewicz @BenMank77]

Interesting…
Though I have to say I can’t think of any movie - from any filmmaker - that makes me “feel” more intensely than Paths of Glory.

[Ben Mankiewicz @BenMank77]

He got out of the slam and became the northeast regional director for Miracle-Gro.

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

Happy Birthday Akira Kurosawa! ✨🇯🇵

Give 'em the old razzle dazzle!✨

Tonight’s Prime Musical Matinee features Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renée Zellweger in Chicago ('02) — the Oscar-winning hit based on the longest-running Broadway revival.

Tune in tonight to watch at 10pm ET.

Defending Your Life was released 35 years ago today!! I think I've conquered at least half of my fears.
