  1. Golden Globes 2018: How to watch the awards show and red carpet

    by NBC News

     

    "All eyes will be on the Golden Globe Awards this Sunday — and not just for the red carpet and big winners. This first major awards show since sexual misconduct allegations rocked Hollywood, the Globes will be closely watched this year for how its host, Seth Meyers, and the winners and presenters make use of their time at the mic. .....

  2. I noted in Freidkin's outro that he believed Frankenheimer intended this as a satire. I'd never heard that before, but also noticed this @ wiki article: "... Rotten Tomatoes, based on 53 reviews, which summarizes it as "a classic blend of satire and political thriller that was uncomfortably prescient in its own time".[10]

    Baldwin didn't seem to agree, but Freidkin said he remembered some 'funny' aspects but did't elaborate.

    Maybe I only view it through my own, more serious historical context, but can ANYone recall just which are supposed to be the funny bits....??

    Liliom (1934)
     
     
     

    LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:    
    D: Fritz Lang. Charles Boyer, Madeleine Ozeray, Florelle, Robert Arnoux, Roland Toutain.

    "After fleeing Nazi Germany in 1933, Lang went to France and made this version of Molnar's celebrated fantasy, previously filmed in the U.S. in 1930 and subsequently musicalized as CAROUSEL. Boyer stars as the brutish carnival barker who is killed while committing a robbery to support his pregnant girlfriend and returns to Earth years later to visit his now-grown daughter. Dreamily romantic yet appropriately dark, with superbly stylish sets and photography, particularly in the imaginative sequences depicting heaven."

         Tomorrow night TCM presents 4 W. C. Fields films; two from Paramount and two from Universal. The first film, Million Dollar Legs, is a TCM premiere. I remember seeing this movie at a film festival many years ago and I couldn't stop laughing. The other three are also very good and worth watching. Don't miss them!

    "Million Dollar Legs", though maybe not a Premiere....

    Scorsese also wrote the column for the Now Playing guide, not sure if he's still doing that for the digital version.  I imagine that Scorsese is probably too busy to host a show.  However, I imagine that the hosts probably record all intro/outros all at once, so it's probably not that big of a commitment. 

    yes, Scorsese still has articles in NPG....

    My comment:Yikes!! I have to admit the prurient subject matter of this thing makes me at least want to watch the beginning. This was made in the 70s yet I've never heard of it.

  11. Woody Allen’s New Movie Isn’t a Confession. It’s Something Much More Damaging.

    ".... Wonder Wheel is the opposite of a mea culpa. Allen has constructed an entire world, including an elaborate replica of Coney Island’s boardwalk, for the purposes of once more indicting his former partner and exonerating himself. But the fact that he has to construct that world himself, and not only that, but to filter it through a thick layer of theatrical artifice, feels strangely like an admission. He’s not changing his story, but even its most careful presentation—and, to the extent it is possible to separate form from content, Wonder Wheel is a beautiful movie, elegantly designed and shot—still seems like a hollow, trumped-up fraud. ....
