I have some wonderful news! I’ll be presenting a 16mm print of Gregory La Cava's Private Worlds (1935) at The Cinema Museum on Wednesday the 6th of May 2026 at 7.30pm. Tickets are available now: cinemamuseum.org.uk/scheduled/pr...
Still blown away, thankful, and frazzled about introducing Gregory La Cava’s Unfinished Business (1941) for the BFI Film on Film Festival. Also love that they went with my suggestion for using that contemporary slightly gossipy TIME review for the screening note handouts, so the handout ends on this
My words and research on editor Barbara McLean’s work with Gregory La Cava at Twentieth Century Pictures on Gallant Lady (1933) and The Affairs of Cellini (1934). I would like to thank Emily Wittenberg from the American Film Institute for her assistance ourmangregorylacava.com/2025/03/09/l...
Wonderful new addition to my collection: Gregory La Cava interviewed by Quentin Reynolds for Collier's, March 26, 1938
They aren't promoting it for some reason, but that is indeed the newly restored, substantially different pre-censorship version of Frank Borzage's 1933 MAN'S CASTLE on the Criterion Channel -- a masterpiece now even masterpiecier. @criterionchannl www.criterionchannel.com/pre-code-col...
Very thankful for Les Films du Horla keeping stock of Rouben Mamoulian: The Golden Age of Broadway and Hollywood (2006), as I feel better off knowing Mamoulian tried to get a cat in all of his films. I will definitely be returning to his films to see if he succeeded
It creates fascinating contrast to the spectacle of his productions, which works fantastically in his comedies like Don’t Change Your Husband, but some other times truly can feel bizarre. Wow that must have been a treat! Fool's Paradise is perfect for the big screen
John Bright nearly physically fighting for Joan Blondell is very understandable. We all ❤️ Blondell
Clive Brook being part of the exclusive club of “Classical Hollywood actors that directed one great film and that’s it” was surprising to find out. In other words, I adored On Approval (1944)
It’s hard to stop listening to those songs too lol like I’ve been trying to not just put my On Repeat on shuffle all the time…but it’s so hard
It's a huge tragedy that there are no good interviews anywhere with Joe Don Baker. The man worked with Scorsese, Peckinpah, Phil Karlson, Don Siegel. He studied at the Actors Studio. He was in three Bond movies. Of course, he was Mitchell. We need his testimony!
