(1945) One of my favorite actors of the golden era is Errol Flynn. If you look “dashing” up in the dictionary, I’m sure you’ll find his picture. He made the ladies swoon and the guys envious. TCM is having a day long tribute to Flynn this Saturday (Aug 7). It’s yet another day where you could [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TCM Pick of the Week: Boys Town (1938) Spencer Tracy and Mickey Rooney star in this weeks pick.

Well, dear reader, Theodore Geisel is none other than the beloved author, Dr. Seuss. Yes. Long before Ron Howard ever made How The Grinch Stole Christmas, Dr. Seuss [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website AFI Top 100 – #89: The Sixth Sense (1999) Number 89 on the AFI Top 100 is M.

A Star Is Born (1954) was the opening night film and the only film that our media credentials didn’t give us access to. This Judy Garland classic is a remake of a 1937 film staring Janet Gaynor [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Media Credentials I’ve been having some amazing adventures since I moved to Los Angeles over a year ago.  Not all of them have been directly film related but they have been opportunities I wouldn’t have had in Atlanta.

Many first time screenwriters make the mistake of having their antagonist enjoy doing evil. Sure there are times when those bad guys can be fun, but mostly they just come off as one dimensional and boring. The trick to writing villains is to write them as if they [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TCM Pick of the Week: Easy Rider (1969) This week’s TCM pick is a film that I’m not particularly fond of, but since it was directed by the recently departed Dennis Hopper, I figured it was a good time to give him and his film their due respect. Easy Rider is long, rambling, drug-fueled film without much of a story. All things that [...] Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website TCM Pick of the Week: Tarzan, The Ape Man (1932) This week’s pick is one that I’ve sadly never seen.
