Back when I worked for the film class, we saw every Woody Allen film (and though we never had him as a guest, Marshall Brickman came and told us all about "Annie Hall"--like the alternate ti ... |

Memorably hilarious?
A thread in one of the other Topics reminded me of the first time Sir Ralph Richardson enthralled me--the line "Too late to apologize!" in "The Wrong Box." T ... |

"Women in Love" isn't my favorite Alan Bates flick, but it has a lot going for it, not least the famous wrestling scene. Even Alan Bates had commented on the line that a housewife in the aud ... |

Among TCM's holiday choices, I managed to catch the last part of "A Carol for Another Christmas," and I wish they had showed it again. I'm old enough to remember when it was shown originally ... |

Our PBS station showed "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" (Donald Sutherland version) Sunday night, and I hadn't seen it since our film class; I didn't remember most of the details, but I was ... |

Back when I did freelance proofreading for Random House et al., I proofread Colin Powell's autobiography. It was actually very interesting, but the part I recall most clearly was something that hasn't ... |

Saw "Elizabeth Is Missing" on PBS recently, and I've posted a description on Current Film, but should have done it here. I thought it was a very good mystery, and Glenda Jackson is awesome. ... |

Still haven't ventured out to visit a theater yet, but I caught "Elizabeth Is Missing" on one of our PBS stations. Very interesting--especially since I had just learned that one of my cousin ... |
