Joan Crawford is the greatest classic- Hollywood actress, and Scott Eyman's wonderful new biography, Joan Crawford: A Woman's Face (out today from @simonschuster), reveals the exacting process behind the art—and how the studio system factored into it: newyorker.com/culture/the-fr…

I'm off to the #LonePineFilmFestival in a couple more days. Below, a favorite memory from a few years ago. He couldn't have been more gracious. Over time this festival has given me the chance to meet names like Patrick Wayne, Bruce Boxleitner & many more.

On this day in 1904, the Jewish-Moravian Austrian-American director Edgar G. Ulmer was born. He co-directed Menschen am Sonntag with Robert Siodmak and he worked with Murnau in the USA on Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans in 1926.

Been to Hawaii thrice. Each time I visit the Punchbowl, find the grave and say a quick Kaddish. On this visit, though, I thought about what Ernie Pyle, who wrote truly of ordinary men enduring the extraordinary, would think of journalism today, in our post-fact, clickbaited era.

Taking a break from the madness of this moment in America by rereading the best. @ScottEyman1 can be heard on the new episode of @TCM’s #ThePlotThickens DECODING JOHN FORD, releasing this week. Serenity now! (That’ll be the day…)

Latest read! Chaplin Versus America - When Art, Sex, And Politics Collide by @ScottEyman1. His conversation with Charlie Chaplin’s grandson on @ChaplinTalks was so insightful, even for this lifelong fan!📚 Resonates with so much with today’s hyperbole media & political hysteria.

Do you know how hard it is to be a classic movie host working on the intro to an Errol Flynn film without using the word “swashbuckler?” I shadow banned it a few years ago, but this is a challenge. I appreciate your thoughts and prayers.

I’m not entirely sure what I did here, but it’s further proof that classic movie fans are everywhere. And it is wonderful. Also, it got me texting with my idiot wrestling friend (I don’t think those things are related) @JimmyAltman, who I’ve always been faster than.

Scott! I've been following what you've been doing for years. Fantastic stuff, man. Alas, I don't know where Bilotti is. I kept up on him through Joe Crea. Joe died a few years back. ..

@DaleMaharidge Dale, Long time no hear from. Where is Bilotti? Scott

Great to see this take on @ScottEyman1's book on Charlie Chaplin. Scott and I wrote for the Cleveland Plain Dealer's Sunday magazine in the 1970s, for editors Richard Bilotti and Judith Haynes. Another lifetime. newyorker.com/magazine/2023/…

I’ve listened to her for decades and it’s my privilege to chat with NPR’s Terry Gross for Fresh Air about “Charlie Chaplin vs America,” which airs today. She’s just as interesting and terrific as you expect. She reads the books and asks questions nobody else does. @nprfreshair

Visited the Clevelander Bar & Grill at 824 Huron Rd. in Cleveland, great to chat with the friendly bartender, Sarah Pohlman. With a tenure at this establishment since 2015, Sarah shared details about the renowned downtown sports bar and its vibrant atmosphere during game times.

@Mctaguej I like The Big Country, but I’ve never written about it. So, yes, they got it wrong.

@ScottEyman1 Scott,BARD says that you wrote a book, The Big Country: The Making of an American Classic. I can’t find a used copy for sale. Did BARD get it right?

I have known two geniuses in my life. One was Fritz Lang. The other was Robert Gottlieb. Both were warm, loving and generous; both preferred to disguise it by emphasizing their knack for incisively stating the truth. Both will always be irreplaceable.
