The Blu ray presentation is also superb.

This series certainly deserves greater recognition as does Showtime. When HBO was still choking on the word 'gay' Showtime was running this series; when the Republicans refused to fund any gay content via NEA Showtime stepped right up to finance and produce the 'Tales of the City' series when...

She also played Helen Keller's mother in 'The Miracle Worker'

The non IMAX 70MM presentation at the Music Box theatre in Chicago is superb.

'West Side Story' 2021......Dull, unimaginative and grossly overpraised by critics. The (sparse) audience I saw it with in Chicago was lethargic throughout the entire screening. I don't think I read one review of this film without numerous labored and predictable references to the original...

The indiscriminate love and loyalty for Julie Andrews on HTF never ceases to amaze me....and I say this as a fan.

Are you someone who believes Julie Andrews would have been superb...just superb!...in this film?

Was that at BFI Southbank?

'Rebel Without A Cause' RKO Prospect Brooklyn, NYC

No 2D in NYC or Chicago either.

That's an interesting site, but not the same one. The post I found was written in narrative form and focused more on the liability of both sets of parents. Apparently they (parents) were fully onboard and gave consent for Olivia and Leonard to do whatever was asked of them. It also explained...

I knew I'd be asked that and unfortunately I can't remember. I googled the lawsuit a day or so after it was filed and it was one of many that came up. It was either a law school website or a firm that dealt primarily with entertainment issues. It also said the suit would be thrown out due to all...

Both Olivia Hussey and Leonard Whiting required their parents' permission to star in 'R&J'. Both sets of parents agreed in writing. Because Paramount is an American company, it was required to adhere to American laws and standards re: employment of minors. Olivia's mother was present during the...

What was 'creepy' about Roy? Unless you're privy to some information no one else is I think another adjective might be more charitable.

The racism on display is supposed to bother and make the viewer uncomfortable. Obviously it makes its point.

What racism? This film is clearly anti racist.

Not sure.....none of the sites I usually visit have reviewed it. I did re-purchase and the issue was present on the second disc as well. I emailed Warner but never received a response.

I'm a huge Tina fan so I purchased the blu ray and was very disappointed with the transfer. The concert footage transfer is particularly egregious..It looks much better on HBO.

'Raintree County' at Film Forum.....So, how was it?

The Music Box theater in Chicago announced today that it will be screening a brand new 70MM print of 'Airport' as part of this year's 70MM festival. It will be the initial screening of that print. The screenings run June 17th through June 30th. It will also host a rare 70MM screening of 'Hello...

The June calendar isn't available to download yet, but this is happening.

Film Forum in NYC has announced a Montgomery Clift retrospective beginning June 5th. It was posted today on their Facebook page. 'Raintree County' is among the films scheduled, though info re: dates, running time, format etc. are forthcoming.

When I posted my comment I was actually going to say 'late '70 or early'71'. I remember the announcement in the NY Times, and purchasing my ticket during the week for a weekend screening. Thanks for researching and clarifying this for us.

It was, indeed, a brief Roadshow presentation. I saw it as well and agree with you....this cut was incomprehensible.

This cut played the Rivoli Theater in NYC in late '70. It was shown on a 'reserved seat' basis, though the engagement was short-lived. NYC critics who reviewed this re-release all made mention of the cuts and subsequent shortened running time.

It was shown on a 'reserved performance' basis with general admission seating at the Ziegfeld. It was run twice daily. I had purchased my tickets at the box office about a month or so prior to the premiere.

The cover art is one of the original theatrical posters.

Nobody is denying her that right. We are merely responding to how angry and bitter and obsessive her comments are.

Rita began to disparage her husband about 15 minutes after he died, and has been dining out on her mistreatment by Marlon Brando for 62 years. She now has begun to opine on Jerome Robbins' internalized homophobia/self loathing, espousing her theory that this is behind his sadistic treatment of...

Is this the Paramount Blu ray being reviewed here?
