RIP Tony Stella. The world has lost a true artist. Tony was one of the last bastions of hand-painted movie poster art. He created this amazing FULL METAL JACKET piece shortly before he died. He only shared it with me and a few others. I hope someone puts out a coffee table book of his work someday. 🙏

This account will continue.

We are Tony's family and friends. You're used to hearing from Tony here. So are we. Like you, we are heartbroken. Tony left us unexpectedly, far too soon, on May 1st — peacefully, in his sleep.

We have been reading every message, every tribute, every piece of art shared in his name. You loved him well. Thank you.

It's a treat every year to listen to the Gone With the Wind of Top Ten movie wrap up videos as @colebrax hosts @WilliamScurry, @PINNLAND_EMPIRE, & @MovieKessler to discuss their favorites, & as usual, they make me want to see films I wouldn't have gone near otherwise. @WrongReel
