HoldenIsHere Posted December 8, 2014 Does anyone know when A Night at the Movies: George Lucas & the World of Fantasy Cinema will air again or if it will be available in any way on demand? If you have Comcast, it is currently an On Demand choice. I watched it today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've forever tried finding Reiner's much scoffed NORTH just to see it. Obviously it's not on DVD. Most of what Reiner touches turns to gold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkblue Posted December 10, 2014 I saw 'The sure Thing' once, back in the 80's. I remember just one scene - to do with shot-gunning a can of beer. I know I enjoyed it - it had its charm - but little else about it. Gonna record it tonight and give it another look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ARTICLE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris,_Texas_%28film%29 I remember my mother rented the video of this movie when I was child. There were a few moments that intrigued me, but I recall not really understanding what was going on. My mother eventually made me leave the room so she could watch in peace. (Of course, this made think there were some sex scenes in the movie.) I'm interested to see what reaction I will have to this movie seeing it as an adult.

Dir: Sacha Guitry Cast: Sacha Guitry , The New York Times described it as "witty, impudent, morally subversive" and commented, "Only a man of Guitry's impudence could have succeeded in making 'The Story of a Cheat' the clever picture that it is" http://en.wikipedia....ions_of_a_Cheat 4:15 am ET 118 min comedy Pearls of the Crown, The (1937) PREMIERE Seven pearls shape the destinies of all who possess them. Dir: Sacha Guitry Cast: Arletty , Marcel Dalio , Sacha Guitry . ARTICLE: http://www.tcm.com/t...e/articles.html "(writer/director) Guitry infused his famous wit in this film into a semi-historical template filled with lighthearted, inventive touches. In fact, Guitry himself assumes four roles ....for the chronicle of seven pearls, three of which have mysteriously disappeared after the others wind up on the crown of England. The origin of the gems as gifts to a young Catherine de Medici by Pope Clement VII turns into a springboard for four hundred years and hundreds of characters' worth of twists and turns including other familiar figures like Henry VIII and Mary, Queen of Scots."

mr6666 Posted December 31, 2014 (according to NPG) tonight 12-31 for Classic Rock Films: 11:30 pm ET C- 92 min documentary Gimme Shelter (1970) A harrowing documentary of the Stones' 1969 tour, with much of the focus on the tragic concert at Altamont. Dir: David Maysles Cast: Mick Jagger , Keith Richard , Mick Taylor . author Michael Lydon summed it up especially well: "As one who was there, I most want Gimme Shelter's new viewers to know how deeply the disturbing drama of this film sprang from the disturbing drama of the times. Nostalgic journalism has made the sixties an innocent time of love, peace, and flowers, but living through the decade didn't feel like that to me. Becoming a hippie was fun but at the same time a scary, soul-wrenching process. Altamont was one of many dark and dangerous bummers I, and seemingly everyone else, stumbled into as we reached for new ideals and possibilities."
