Enjoy the trailer. ⬇️ (Note: Shelley Winters – referenced in the trailer – was married to Gassman from 1952-54.) 😊 Link to watch: archive.org/details/the-...

Every Friday afternoon, Philip and I go to our favorite gelato place, order some cones, then stop by a sculpture garden a block away and eat in blissful quiet. If you need a bit of tranquility today, here’s 10 seconds’ worth. Sound up. 😊

ONE HOUR till #TheNoirCollective watch party of PANIC IN THE STREETS, starring Richard Widmark. Since this film – like Streetcar – is set in New Orleans and directed by Elia Kazan, this clip from The Simpsons should give you a good idea what to expect. Link to watch: archive.org/details/pani...

I love Red Dust so much, I keep a 15-second clip on my phone. 😅

This Wed at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT, I’m hosting #TheNoirCollective watch party of PANIC IN THE STREETS (1950), with Richard Widmark, Paul Douglas and Barbara Bel Geddes, plus Jack Palance in an electrifying debut. Enjoy the trailer. ⬇️😊 Link to watch: archive.org/details/pani...

Fred Astaire was #BOTD, so it seems fitting I post my favorite of all the Astaire-Rogers dances, in which they replay their (failed) romance in Swing Time through the course of one long, climactic dance. Stunning in and of itself, but unforgettable within the context of the film.
