Rest in Peace Gene Hackman

folk horror be like "here's some twigs arranged in a different than usual way"

Cinema Her Way is a wonderful book and beautifully put together. @oldfilmsflicker.bsky.social (Marya!) should be so proud. We are thrilled to be carrying it signed.

Rest in Peace Roberta Flack 🎵This love of mine, it has no beginning it has no end🎵

100 Classic Movie 💋

I just had to share this story!! #TCMParty www.nbcwashington.com/entertainmen...

Kim Novak. Bell, Book and Candle.

LRT if you have any library card, PLEASE use Libby or Hoopla. It's SO EASY to effectively get unlimited knowledge on demand!!

"The Annihilation of Fish" was made in 1999...Doros' efforts to get it in front of an audience — finally — is a love story that is almost as epic as the one in the movie. Only this love story is between Doros, his partner, Amy Heller, and Burnett, the film's celebrated director. bit.ly/3COsGsi

Not thrilled to see this framed as a “first time” — it’s not — but a welcome milestone all the same. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/fe...

It's Tuesday

🎶 Put on your red dress🎶 ... 🔊 Needle drop. It's February. #BHM #BlackHistoryMonth2025 (To watch my full video: youtu.be/MgZJy9Fmntg?...)

An extremely essential film. This is a cinema verite style Canadian documentary from the 80s and many of the subjects involved are trans. It was previously only available as a low-quality youtube rip. This disc also features numerous other short films from Janis Cole and Holly Dale.

Roger Robinson speaks truth in Willie Dynamite (1974)

Stefanie Powers, 82, and Ann-Margaret, 83...gorgeous!

RIP

A girl I knew in college saw David Lynch speak at an event. When it ended, she found a way to get to the front to tell him how much his films and shows meant to her. His response was “Thank you. And remember, the universe is in your basement.”

Kay Francis' 120th birthday isn't until tomorrow, but we're mentioning it now because TCM is airing 10 of her pictures in a row beginning at 6 a.m. ET tomorrow, and we wanted to give you time to cancel your plans, clear some space in your DVR, whatever it takes to watch them all.

The list of animation workers who lost homes in the fire sadly continues to grow. We are continually updating and there are currently 30 fundraisers that you can contribute to. Please consider helping out one or more of these people: www.cartoonbrew.com/animators/ho...

Sad news to report: Claude Jarman Jr has died www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

RIP Claude Jarman, who gave beautiful, heartbreaking performances in two masterpieces before the age of 16. I am so glad I got a chance to meet him in 2023; he couldn't have been warmer or more kind. This month, my god... www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

Hollywood Blvd is dear to me because of so many beautiful TCMFF memories. Painful to see the flames in the hills above it and know so many people, including people who were a part of those memories, are suffering.

Oh my goodness, this account of Dick van Dyke being saved from the fires by his neighbors got me.

Oh, me? Nothing much, just going down a Wikipedia rabbit hole that ended in learning Kathy Bates’s grandfather once tried to sell Henry Ford a fake mummified John Wilkes Booth.

Today on my @justthediscs.bsky.social channel, I’m talking about some out-of-print DVDs that haven’t made it to Blu-ray: youtu.be/QjcGDE1J2N0?...

So many comics shops and independent bookstores are struggling right now. It's scary. Please shop local when you can, it makes all the difference. And if any stores need a boost, feel free to tag me in your event/sale/etc announcements and I will RT.

Moment to appreciate the malevolent glamour of Greta Gynt in DEAR MURDERER (1947). Now *this* is how you scheme in style.
