I just hope the TCM video archives are taken care of. They have so many on camera interviews with Old Hollywood stars. Not just the intros, but like hour long convos with people like Sylvia Sidney, etc. I hope it gets donated to a real archive like Margaret Herrick.

You think they would have done this in Silver Lake, Echo Park , Culver City , Venice , Santa Monica .. Why South LA.. I already know the answer and sadly you do too.

Director and Cinematographer Jessie Maples was born in 1947 in Louisiana. She’s the first Black-American woman to join the International Photographers of Motion Picture & Television union. Her debut feature film “Will” (1981) marks the film debut of actress Loretta Devine.

I Care A lot...How can they pass a film about white collar criminality--with a white star antagonist who manipulates everyone-- off as Girlboss, badass women?!

Those bitches are criminals exploiting the elderly. They are terrible ppl!

Really enjoying watching the Faith & John Hubley films on @criterionchannl. Their animation is so lovely, sketchy & free. I hadn't gotten to see it in HD before, & it's gorgeous. Most are pretty short, so it can be a little 10 min escape in your day. https://t.co/84TeHgqERr
