I'm curious to see how Todd Haynes' Peggy Lee biopic turns out. I'd especially like to see how he handles her few, but successful, movie roles. Reese Witherspoon doesn't strike me as an obvious choice for the lead role, but I wouldn't be surprised if she could handle the part--The Gu read more

In January, I picked 10 films that I planned to see for the first time in 2014. With this series of posts, I'll share my impressions of those movies.
This hip, slick sixties take on film noir didn't excite me the way I'd hoped, but it has a fair share of thrills and a great jazzy scor read more

Since I'm a print collector and I screen movies at my home, I heard from other collectors and projectionists that [they] might have to close down, so, I just started paying [them] that per month. I considered it a contribution to cinema.

There's a Chinese princess played by Norwegian-American Sigrid Gurie, Kublai Khan is Philadelphia-born George Barbier and the devious emperor's advisor is Brit-to-the-bone Basil Rathbone.

I love this Warner Archive podcast featuring noir expert Eddie Mueller. Lots of interesting information about film noir and Out of the Past (1947), which was recently released on Blu-ray. The disc has been so popular that it has already gone through four pressings--Warner Archive Tumblr
