More matches over at Screwball Cinema (1)
All Good Things Posted by monty on Dec 2, 2012
Judging by the number of votes logged over at Screwball Cinema, I believe everyone may not know that there are matches taking place over there too. I know Page doesn't as she commented here at All Good Things, that she was wondering where Bringing Up Baby was. Baby's match between it and Jean Harlo read more
"From Headquarters" and Even More Warner Regulars
The Man on the Flying Trapeze Posted by David on Nov 30, 2012
Like "Life Begins" and "Union Depot," the 1933 film "From Headquarters" is another slice-of-life panorama brought to you by Warner Bros. and filled with studio contract players.

Birthday Girls: Elsa and Edith (Now with More Elvis)
Café Muscato Posted by Muscato on Oct 28, 2012
Two of Hollywood's most interesting eccentrics were born on this date, both in one way or another ugly ducklings who made themselves into swans. In this clip (although not, of course, in its screencap) we see one of them, Miss Elsa Lanchester, onscreen, wearing th read more

For 2013, more Columbia Carole on DVD
Carole & Co. Posted by vp19 on Oct 16, 2012
Carole Lombard's career-changing performance in "Twentieth Century" has been on DVD for several years; "Virtue," another solid Lombard effort, was issued earlier this year as part of a pre-Code compilation.

Sunbathing of a sort, and more
Carole & Co. Posted by vp19 on Oct 15, 2012
About that Carole Lombard picture above: You know it's artifice; so did anyone who saw it in 1932. But we're to assume that she's sunbathing, even though there's no natural light around. Carole is so alluring in a swimsuit (a pose Feg Murray copied for later images of Lombard in his "Seein' Stars" c read more
Lombard, by a nose (and more)
Carole & Co. Posted by vp19 on Sep 26, 2012
Carole Lombard met, knew and was photographed with many fellow celebrities during her brief lifetime, but when you see her with someone for the first time, it's a pleasant surprise nonetheless. Take the following photo, for instance. Flanking Carole on one side is Jack Oakie, a bit unrecognizable in read more

When There’s No More Room In HELL…
Classic Horror Campaign Posted by Richard on Sep 3, 2012
“When there’s no more room in Hell…the dead will walk the Earth!” read the tagline of George A Romero’s Dawn Of The Dead (1978) the terrifying sequel to his seminal zombie classic Night Of The Living Dead (1968). This film pushed the boundaries in terms of read more

The late great George Carlin once posited, “Did you ever
notice that their stuff is shit, and your shit is stuff?” While I don’t believe Carlin was specifically
referring to guilty pleasures, his statement certainly fits the bill here. It’s
all a matter of taste. read more

Café Muscato Posted by Muscato on Jul 28, 2012
This rather marvelous mash-up appeared on my radar courtesy of the very dashing Craig Carruthers, amusing Twitterer and keeper of the flame of the startlingly-not-late, great Luise Rainer.
Perhaps it's been clattering around the Internet for ages and I'm just seeing it,&nbs read more
