Re: For Bronxgirl48: Mother's Day
The Music Box Theater is lovely. I am excited for the Liz & Monty series they are running. I am going to be busy this summer, but hopefully I can attend a few screenings. I want to see THE MISFITS. It's screening at the Music Box in June. I have never seen Marylin Monroe or Montgomery Clift on ...

Re: Wicked (movie version)
The more I see and hear about this movie, the more I'm looking forward to seeing it, and this is from someone who much prefers Gregory Maguire's novel to the Winnie Holzman and Stephen Schwartz musical adaptation. A new behind-the-scenes featurette --- WICKED: A PASSION PROJECT --- is now available,...

Re: For Bronxgirl48: Mother's Day
I hadn't heard of the Music Box, but checking on Cinema Treasures it dates back to 1929 and looks beautiful from the pictures. Nice it has survived all these years and is still showing movies. Wrigley Field is about a 5 minute walk from there. It's a great neighborhood and I have a friend who lives...

Re: Returning shows and new shows
CBS has two new hits with Tracker and Elsbeth . I was happy that Melissa Roxburgh, the star of Manifest , is playing Justin Hartley's younger sister, though she won't be a regular on the show. I was even happier that Elsbeth is not PC in its choice of villains. Any celebrity can be a villain. As wi...

CNN's How It Really Happened: Oscar Pistorious "My lady, it was an accident" Sure. Right. Four "accidental" gunshots . . . Apparently that's just how you ask someone if the loo is occupied in South Africa. It's a (slightly) different culture than here in the US (barring Texas.) ...

CNN's How It Really Happened: Oscar Pistorious "My lady, it was an accident" Sure. Right. Four "accidental" gunshots . . . It could be even more outrageous. It could have been like that notorious 1980 murder case involving the Lizzie Borden of the 20th century who gave another w...

Re: I Just Watched...
Speaking of Dracula: the first ten minutes of Kevin Spacey's performance as Hickey in The Iceman Cometh are available on YouTube. This is simply some of the best acting I have ever seen. I think I get the Dracula reference, but as for the acting in THE ICEMAN COMETH clip I thought it was just Space...

Re: I Just Watched...
LHF, do you (or does anyone for that matter) know why the story was changed in the 1931 movie DRACULA to have Renfield visit Count Dracula's castle at the beginning rather than Jonathan Harker (as happens in Bram Stoker's source novel)? OMG AN UNSOLICITED DRACULA QUESTION!!!!! (I am not exactly an ...

I also have THIS COMPULSION where, even though I own them all on DVD- whenever any of the UNIVERSAL MONSTER FILMS become available on any format I have access to- I WILL WATCH. I dunno WHY but DRACULA (31), FRANKENSTEIN (31), THE WOLF MAN, THE INVISIBLE MAN and THE MUMMY (1933) are all on youtube (...
