Saturday, April 19, 2014. Garbo and Dietrich On The Small Screen. A TV series centering on the intersecting lives of Greta Garbo. Is being developed by Annapurna Pictures. It’ll be powerhouse producer Megan Ellison. 8217;s first foray into television, and if her eye for great films is any indication, it’s sure to be a success. In case you don’t know, Ellison was behind two of last year’s accolade-heavy films – American Hustle. But anyway, back to this glorious project. According to Variety. I can see it!

Monday, May 9, 2011. All About That Dialogue! So last weekend I was flipping through the channels and - surprise, surprise - I landed on TCM. Was on, right at the part where Margo Channing ( Bette Davis. Is furiously ranting in the theater after finding out that Eve Harrington ( Anne Baxter. Was made her understudy. It’s not the first time I’ve seen the film, but again it struck me - this script had bite. ( Joseph Mankiewicz. Next time a guy asks to buy you drink, respond the Margo way:. Next time someon...

Monday, January 17, 2011. So director George Lucas. Apparently thinks he has the power to raise the dead. He’s certainly a high and mighty presence in Hollywood, but he ain’t no God. Here’s the deal: A bizarre rumor began floating around the internet back in December that the Star Wars. Creator has been buying up the rights to dead movie stars, so he can “bring them back” with the use of new technology. Imagine James Dean. Co-starring in a new film together. Weird, right? And kind of creepy. Realizes his...

On The Marquee: Siren Centerfold: Lauren Bacall
http://www.onthemarqueeblog.com/2009/03/siren-centerfold-lauren-bacall.html
Thursday, March 26, 2009. Yup, like Kristine said, Humphrey Bogart. Had that special something. And no one knew that better than Lauren Bacall. Of course, Bacall had some special qualities of her own, so when the two of them came together in films like. To Have and Have Not. They were simply unstoppable. She was seemingly the only one who could match Bogie's toughness on screen—and off. She could keep up with him, quip for quip and insult for insult. Born Betty Joan Perske. In 1924 in the Bronx. Bacall w...

Sunday, January 22, 2012. On Display: The Art of the Movie Poster. I’m a serious fan of the old movie poster. One look around my room and that’s apparent. A movie poster hangs from every angle - from A Streetcar Named Desire. And Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. On one wall to East of Eden. On another. My room’s a veritable classic movie poster gallery. At the Furman Gallery, called “Style and Motion: The Art of the Movie Poster,” featured a variety of original film posters from the Mike Kaplan. Lea Michele in Cre...

Wednesday, March 23, 2011. Siren Centerfold: Elizabeth Taylor (2/27/32 - 3/23/11). 8217;s passing today along with the rest of the world, and I immediately knew the tributes to this Hollywood icon would be instant and endless. Because it wasn’t just the death of an actress - it was the end of an era. And while I’m aware my own personal tribute will get lost in the sea of all the rest, it’s simply an. Necessity to commemorate such a beautiful, talented, tragic figure. Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Thoug...

Saturday, July 21, 2012. Gene Kelly: All the Right Moves. Most people know Gene Kelly. As a dancer, an actor, occasional singer and perhaps someone who enjoys a rainy day. More than most. Some might even know he was a groundbreaking director and choreographer, too. But there’s a lot people don’t know about the handsome hoofer from Pittsburgh. And that’s where the Film Society of Lincoln Center. He kept by his bedside. Perhaps what most surprised me to learn, and maybe it shouldn’t have, was Gene...
