Brilliant! Thanks, Willy. My friend's wife, Mina, is third picture down, wearing the mantilla (the ring scene).

It's a masterpiece, so great news about the quality, Matt. A friend of mine turned me onto it in VHS days. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven! Met Marc Lawrence at the time Marathon Man was in cinemas. A kind, sweet nature that belied the looks that had him cast so often as a villain. Proof...

Muchas Gracias, Ramin. Up to my neck at my local theater. Lot of catching up to do here. Toby Roan is writing a book: A Million Feet of Film: The making of One Eyed Jacks. A search for the title will bring up his Facebook and Tumblr. pages. Some terrific behind the scenes pictures, including...

First I knew of this, and so true! That committee was very Un-American. Ironic that ol' Joe Stalin would have felt right at home on it.

The reason I'm most proud to have met Gene Kelly was for what Jules Dassin had to say about him. In his interview on the Criterion Rififi, Dassin recalls the time at a Cannes Festival when he spotted Kelly and, eager not to embarrass him, hid around a corner. He thought he was safe when he felt...

Thank God it isn't, but that's what makes the world go round!

She was my first crush! Surreal meeting her in the early '90s with this in mind. Didn't mention it, of course. Mitzi is adorable. Love every millimeter of every frame. Have yet to meet anyone who feels the same, but I also love the filters. For me, they add to the magical element attributed to...

Just got through watching The Searchers. Documentaries include the marvelous, 'A turning of the Earth', written, directed and produced by none other than...Nick Redman.

Sorry, hit the attachment button twice.

Brando's first aid kit for Rio, sitting on the hat that covered the pate on rides through iconic western locations Monument Valley and Lone Pine.

:P I told a friend I threw out all my Superman movies after seeing this. (Still, it looks like Citizen Kane compared to the last Superman!)
