@colebrax @pooplos_z @WrongReel I just mentioned to David Lambert over on BlueSky that their OUaTitW episode is one of my all-time fave Wrong Reel episodes.

@pooplos_z @WrongReel He was the most passionate hardcore cinephile I ever encountered. I loved recording that episode.

Lots of people will be sharing Tony Stella's absolutely incredible artwork, but I feel like every canvas he touched was fueled by his love of cinema. This episode of @WrongReel was incredibly inspirational to me. wrongreel.com/podcast/wr507-…

I am deeply saddened to share that my Dear friend Tony Stella has passed away.
My thoughts are with his family during this incredibly difficult time.
At the moment, his family is working to gain access to his business and manage next steps.
I will share news as it becomes available.
Thank you for keeping Tony and his loved ones in your thoughts. ❤️

Nearly half a century of people NOT watching Sorcerer because they think it's about Merlin or some bullshit

are there other pieces of media with as wide a gap between its assumed vibe and its actual vibe as “Saturday Night Fever”?

@vashikoo @DavidLambertArt does a good job breaking this down as an optical composite. Worth following for his both broad and deep knowledge of western genre and the old west. x.com/DavidLambertAr…

Check out this wild optical effect in Anthony Mann's 1960 adaptation of Cimarron:

@PINNLAND_EMPIRE I watched Killer of Sheep with students tonight and it made me want to go and watch Bless Their Little Hearts again too. Kaycee Moore only making five movies is maybe the biggest missed opportunity in the history of cinema.

@synathroesmus @kategabrielle I missed this reply, but Seconds is fantastic! Highly recommended. Frankenheimer at his best.
English

@ericnewsom @kategabrielle I've never heard of "Seconds" but it seems really intriguing. One year after Katharine Hepburn passed away, there was an auction of her possessions and I had gotten it in my head that I could somehow get the pair of wicker chairs that, of course, went quickly over my budget, lol.

@BleakPatio @Srirachachau There's a great bit in Shelley Winters' auto-bio about her saddest one-night stand with him after he beat up a Nazi sympathizer, though.
English

@Srirachachau the wikipedia article for Tierney is such a ride. guy was a monster.
English

It’s so funny that they had to come up with lines in the recording booth to respond to Tierney because he just didn’t understand the joke at all

That's it, Mr. Comedian. I'm calling your parents! Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Simpson? This is Detective Don Brodka from Try-N-Save security... That's right, Don Brodka!

@synathroesmus @kategabrielle I don't have many! I wish I had more, but mine are mostly funky random things that I came across by accident, and I don't have a great place to display them. I think I found that OUATitW poster when the auction had just begun and I had high hopes.




English

@ericnewsom @kategabrielle Ahhh, the harmonica-as-mouth/teeth element is brilliant. Do you own many original film posters? Which ones are your favs? I have to say that out of all the ones that I have, the original posters for "Bullitt," "Withnail and I," "Soylent Green," and "The Conversation" are my favs.
English

@synathroesmus @kategabrielle I was in the mix earlier in the year for an auction of this absolutely amazing East German OUATitW poster, but it rapidly got out of my price range:

English

@ericnewsom @kategabrielle Cool! I haven't seen this one before but I absolutely adore vintage film posters from Poland, Serbia, then-Czechoslovakia, etc. Just love the wild and bold color schemes, fonts and graphics. Some of my favorites, including the "Ordinary People" poster which I'm lucky to possess.

@ByJasonFoster Related to nothing: his 1991 Topps is one of my all-time favorite baseball card photos.

I legitimately cannot believe this.
