@LadyKdesigns Great film, but the shots you posted are from stage sets at Universal with process screens in the background...

@BillKristol Quick question : does she have a security clearance ?

@christinalefou How long were you alone with the dog ?

@jfkenney Better than the films.

@WhitStillman @jfkenney After a screening of FRENZY at USC a group of us walked with Hitchcock to the parking lot. Peter and Cybil, without breaking stride, enter the back of a black stretch limousine. Hitchcock gets into the passenger side of a yellow Rambler station wagon, with Alma behind the wheel.

@WhitStillman @jfkenney At USC Cinema whenever Ford, Hawks, Hitchcock, or Lang made a personal appearance Bogdanovich would show up as a informal and unwanted moderator, "interpreting" or rephrasing our questions to the great men. This we resented.

@JoyceCarolOates Another era indeed. A film that makes Howard Jarvis ( the father of California's Proposition 13 ) into a punchline and treats the possible election of Ronald Reagan to the Presidency as a joke...

@TheCinesthetic Taken almost verbatim from the novella. John told screenwriter Bill Lancaster " What ever else you do, leave it in. I know how to do this." He sure did.

@Criterion Your transfer is a complete botch, a revisionist fantasy looking nothing like the film did on it's original release.

@lesenfants17811 @cinemafrances Yes

@DoyleofDarkness Steve was fond of slipping in musical jokes during rehearsals while we were mixing THE THING. Try using War's LOWRIDER underneath McCready and Copper's helicopter flight to the Norwegian Camp. I can still hear John cackling in the back...

@bazluhrmann I enjoyed EPIC, but was surprised to find there was no credit or mention given to the original directors of all the anamorphic footage - outtakes and all - used. That the Sanders brothers didn't even receive a special thanks at the end seems petty and spiteful.

@ItsGrahamParker A fan from the beginning. Fond memory of digging through boxes at 2 AM, flashlight in hand, at the once a month Capitol Records swap meet to discover Live At Marble Arch and the 12 inch Mercury Poisoning...

@JakeSherman The A +++ reason Paramount can never be allowed to own CNN

[Mia 🍑 @velvetbug100]

The primary reason for Macready's famous hat. John chose it before Kurt Russell was cast in order to disguise his own long locks when first playing Macready for the second unit shoot on the Juneau Ice Field...

[Mia 🍑 @velvetbug100]

@DreadCentral @StephenKing Why ?

[Mia 🍑 @velvetbug100]

“And it is especially exciting to see that the top title nominated by the public for this year, ‘The Thing,’ has been added to the National Film Registry, along with ‘The Truman Show’ and ‘The Incredibles’ which also had very strong public support.”
