youtu.be/BZecJnJr-9M#... I got a message from a set dec crew in Oklahoma that were all reading my book and laughing a lot at the stories. No prop gets more property masters budget grief than when a producer sees a stick that costs thousands in a budget. This stick was free, but hated by Kate.

I love our beautiful Maple Leaf Flag is behind President Zelensky's left shoulder. Canada has always stood up for Freedom, always will. Thank you Britain, and The EU for our place at your table.

youtu.be/yfgrIRzvZco RIP Joey Molland the last surviving member of Badfinger. Maybe one of the most tragic stories of a band originally signed by the Beatles Apple Records. Their music biography is such a sad story of what could have been. Here is "Baby Blue"

#Film #Moviesky Oscar Day! It is now 32 years since Janice and I were in the Dorothy Chandler Auditorium watching "Unforgiven" win Best Picture. For me the journey to that night started with me picking flowers in a ditch for Clint on Day one of filming with a teamster. Full video is on Substack

#film, #Filmsky, #moviesky "Unforgiven" casting your crew, and my inability to ride a horse on set. Here is an excerpt from my book "They Don't Pay Me To Say No: My Life in Film and Television Props" about that moment.

In Honour of Gene Hackman, and Oscar weekend there is a wonderful featurette on the making of "Unforgiven" on Youtube. It was the perfect set to work on. Everything portrayed in this behind the scenes look shows how lean, and smart the entire crew was. Gene and the cast were a joy. #Film #Moviesky

I was standing on set the moment Gene Hackman arrived the day before he was to start filming on "Unforgiven." He looked at Clint and said he was still trying to figure Little Bill out. Clint had the idea who Gene could use for inspiration. #Film #Moviesky.

#Filmsky #Moviesky. Here is a rough page from a book I am writing about "Unforgiven" and other Westerns I have worked on. This page is about the moment Gene Hackman arrived at Big Whiskey to play Little Bill Daggett. Gene had not figured Bill out and asked Clint for direction. Here is that moment

Another Oscar's week excerpt from my book. The moment "To Kill A Mockingbird" Production Designer Henry Bumstead and the films star Gregory Peck ran into each other at the "Unforgiven" Oscar year. Needless to say Janice and I were speechless.

"I was called a legend a few weeks ago, as usual I replied with "you mean old right?" Janice and I both worked on "Unforgiven," and "The Assassination of Jesse James." The fact that two small town Canadians worked on these two classics means we will leave our legacy of work behind. #Film

It's Oscar week. This week I am going to post a few pages from my book about the experience my Nominated wife Janice and I had in Los Angeles. We were taken most places by Janice's co-Nominee for "Unforgiven" Henry Bumstead. Here is how Richard Harris was cast in the film.

Inception. My show in Vancouver took an unexpected hiatus for two weeks, so I headed to Alberta at the last minute to help on the snow unit. I was anonymous ski guy or so I thought. This moment of Chris Nolan, Leonardo, and the crew staring at me was my hello to the set. This page is from my book.

I am so grateful for TCM for featuring past Oscar Nominated films. Every year I try to see all the current Oscar films. Some years there are revelations, and some years it is a slog. My faith in movies is always renewed when I watch a classic. This book is a must read for film lovers like me.

In the scheduling of a film it is rare to have a large group of cast on set the same day. One week in Edmonton we had the James Gang for the Blue Cut Train Robbery sequence on set. There were no egos amongst the group, just a nice bunch to work with. Roger Deakins lighting of the Train, stunning.
