I’m very pleased to have been quoted a few times in this new @MethuenDrama #book on screen #acting. I think it’s particularly helpful to young #actors and those with limited experience working in front of the camera. Go read...

#LaGrazia #PaoloSorrentino #ToniServillo #film #Cinema @TheApartmentpi2 @PhoenixLeic Another excellent Sorrentino/Servillo collaboration. In the hands of lesser talent this could be a boring film but it’s anything but! Thoughtful, touching and funny! Go see…

@Creamofthe1960s That’s not Lee Majors!

@FilmmakerLife_ Boring beyond belief. So damn boring!!!

A familiar face is bringing classic adventure vibes back. 🏺 The Mummy is bringing back John Hannah for a new film, instantly igniting nostalgia among fans of the original saga. #TheMummy #JohnHannah #AdventureFilms #EntertainmentNews #ClassicMovies #Filmmakerlife

@60sPsychJukebox One of the best albums of all time. I’m fortunate to have seen Arthur Lee in concert - even near the end, he still put on a great show!

CALIFORNIA ARTIST SPOTLIGHT #1 Released in November 1967, Arthur Lee and Love’s Forever Changes is recognized as a pinnacle of psychedelic music and a landmark album that foreshadowed the decline of the hippie era's idealism. It is widely celebrated for its sophisticated fusion of baroque pop, folk, and mariachi-influenced arrangements, which provided a stark, acoustic-driven contrast to the prevailing loud electric rock of the time. Despite modest initial sales, the album's reputation has grown exponentially, often cited alongside Sgt. Pepper and Pet Sounds as one of the greatest albums ever made. It is frequently termed the ultimate "cult album," lauded for its lyrical depth, dealing with paranoia, mortality, and disillusionment. Its enduring importance lies in its timeless, haunting beauty and its role as a sobering "counterpoint" to the optimism of 1967's "Summer of Love".

@GroomB @PaulBrazill My grandad, an Irish farmer, dressed like that even into the mid 90s when he died.

@CinemaTweets1 @MeisnerActor It is and I think Pesci was the best thing about this great film!

Al Pacino & Joe Pesci each earning Oscar nominations for their performances in The Irishman while basically approaching their emeritus years always impresses me. I watch this scene constantly. How were these two still so good so late in their careers? This is an incredible scene.

@colebrax Really good novella. Ahead of its time!

Finally read 'Who Goes There?' (1938) by John W. Campbell, Jr.. Well worth reading if you're a fan of the subsequent movie adaptations.

@PaulRidd Saw it last weekend. Loved everything about it. Sorrentino is one of the best writer/directors out there!

Tonnes of great movies in UK Cinemas at the moment. Operating in a more muted, sombre mode than usual, Sorrentino's LA GRAZIA is a sweeping, stirring and moving moral thriller and an essential big screen experience. Get on it.

@jrid6996 @its_The_Dr Yup!

@its_The_Dr Rich Man, Poor Man was one of the best television series ever.

Who is this? 89 percent will fail! 🤣

@oxley264 Cheers Peter. I’ll see what I can dig up.

@RobinKirwan I just wondered as I was involved with a couple of his movies cheers mate.

JULIAN GLOVER 91 today For Your Eyes Only - Cry Freedom Quatermass & the Pit - Tom Jones The Last Grenade - Heat and Dust Theatre of Death - Fourth Protocol The Empire Strikes Back - Nemesis Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Game of Thrones - The Saint Doctor Who - The Sweeney

@m77oz @PaulBrazill I’m with you.

@RobinKirwan @PaulBrazill I have a soft spot for Midnight Cowboy but this is up there.

#NW Straight Time (1978), first-time watching.

@waddlywiddly @cheo_coker Great acting!

@RobinKirwan @cheo_coker Although Delonda is a reprehensible individual (brilliantly played by Sandie McCree) you see the tiniest, tiniest moment of empathy between her and Weebey in this scene.

One of my favorite scenes in the entire series. The acting is next level.

@oxley264 It was a long time ago - over fifteen years and I can’t even remember the working title but it was a horror I think. The audition went well but the film never happened. I’ll see if it’s still in my email history and let you know.

@RobinKirwan Can I ask what the movie was Robin

@alcarretta …and I’m in it 😁

My most popular film #TheDevilMadeMeDoIt filmhub.com/t/e735-87a0/th…

@ronmanagernottm Now those shoes are really cool😎

There's Steve McQueen cool and then there's Sid James on a Raleigh Chopper cool.

@RodneyMarshall1 The Night Porter and Death in Venice - say no more!!!

Remembering Dirk Bogarde (Derek Jules Gaspard Ulric Niven van den Bogaerde), BOTD 1921. Actor, novelist, and journalist. An actor who was brave enough to reinvent himself: from matinée screen idol to 'icon of edginess'. 1/

@RMGLUCK2017 Just heard the sad news - he was excellent in all his roles!

Chin chin, James Tolkan - Top Gun and Back To The Future might have been his career highlights, but keep an eye out form him a raft of ace '70s/80s American films, a la Serpico, Love And Death (pictured), Friends Of Eddie Coyle, Iceman, Prince Of The City... #jamestolkan

@QuintsVessel I’m a big fan of this film which influenced me when I made my first film #DragunovFilm vimeo.com/638408171

Star Robert Shaw also wrote the screenplay for this British action/thriller based on the novel of the same name by Barry England. #NowWatching Figures in a Landscape (1970)

@TheStingisBack Very underrated film and possibly Liotta’s best performance!

Cop Land is one of the most underrated movies of the 90s. Stallone wanted it so badly he took $60K, packed on weight, and promised no script changes. A powerhouse cast fuels this urban western, and when Ray Liotta was on fire, nobody matched him.
