Ready For My Close-up

A deleted scene from GIANT (1956) 😜

@johnkoenigcmdr Oh Babs!

Barbara Bain #Space1999

@PeekabooBrian It’s just not right! I’m hoping it will end up being a “flip flop” - that’ll well have a very cool summer. Everyone says I’m insane to have such a hope.

It's already unbearable!

@johnkoenigcmdr And that’s fine with me.

More and more I realize the purpose of this account is the continued glorification of Catherine Schell 🤣 #Space1999

Coming to Blu-ray via Universal on 4/21

@FilmTweeter80 @ProustBahulu That makes sense. I purchased the individual blus of the first & second seasons when they were released and they look fantastic. They discontinued releasing the subsequent season after that. I would love to hear your thoughts on react when you get to them!

@Ready4MyCU @ProustBahulu I actually have both but am watching the Blu ray's which I picked up not long ago. I'm still on Season 1...which I hear was restored prior to the AI restorations done on episodes after Season 2. So...we will see. So far the episodes took great to me!

Watched another episode of I Love Lucy - The Diet (S1 E3) #ILoveLucy ift.tt/ZkwxbEB

@FilmTweeter80 @ProustBahulu Wow! Are you watching them on DVD or the blu-ray edition? I don’t have the blu, but I heard fans have been aghast at AI upscaling that caused a waxy or artificial look in some scenes.

@Ready4MyCU @ProustBahulu Sure is! The show has always been a part of my life but this is the first time I'm watching through the series chronologically in over a decade!

@FilmTweeter80 @ProustBahulu The show is truly timeless!

@Ready4MyCU @ProustBahulu I'm really sorry to hear about your mom but happy I Love Lucy brings her days so much joy! The magic of the show lives on! ❤️

@FilmTweeter80 @ProustBahulu My mom had a severe stroke several years ago, has dementia & a hard time speaking. She is now in a skilled nursing facility.I got her a blu-ray player & the staff puts in ILL dvds and my mom laughs hysterically at every episode.That show brings her so much joy.

@ProustBahulu Currently been watching through season one myself. Try to watch at least a few episodes a week before falling asleep.

@DADiClementi @RasberryRazz Indeed!

@Ready4MyCU @RasberryRazz Nastier, too.

@DADiClementi @RasberryRazz Oh, I didn’t know that the person who runs that account worked for Liza. That makes it seem even weirder!

@RasberryRazz I fucking hate that account. Piece of shit. He worked for her and we’re not supposed to think that it’s an attack?

@NowVoyagerFan @KLStudioClassic I like Boom for camp value, TMC’D is fun, but didn’t take the mystery all that seriously. I have SC & XY&Z on blu, but haven’t watched yet. Do you have a preference between those two?

@NowVoyagerFan @KLStudioClassic That’s hilarious!

@NowVoyagerFan I really liked Nightwatch! Re: her later films, I watched a really bad print of ASH WEDNESDAY (1973) but I still enjoyed that one immensely! It’s a Paramount title, so perhaps @KLStudioClassic will release restored blu-ray?

Jane Russell looking stunning, c. 1991

@LaurasMiscMovie I live in LA, and I’ve never seen him!!!

It’s true. I don’t even live in LA County, but I’ve driven past him on the freeway lol.

Jane Russell poses for HIS KIND OF WOMAN (1951)
