A Day in the Life with Horror Legend Bruce Campbell

Eden says...

He's such a rascal...I highly recommend his autobiography 'If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B Movie Actor', very funny read & lots of funny stuff about those cheeky Raimi brothers

FOX News' devious scheme has worked...

bamdrew says...

So, in summation...

*Fox News jumped on the conservative Insight magazine's "breaking news" that Sen. Obama was briefly educated as a child in a radical muslim madrassa, which was immediatly shown to be a BS by evern other tv and print news agency.

Insight magazine sited no sources, Fox News sited Insight Magazine, CNN famously visited the school and showed that is was by no measure a school for 'fundamentalist' muslim teaching.

Obama, in a widely read autobiography, notes going to a predominantly Muslim school at a young age while living in the very-predominantly Muslim nation of Indonesia... so, somebody saw this, BS'ed a story together, FOX caught wind and aired it no-questions-asked.

now, we're all on the same page.

How The Godfather was sold to Studio Owners (Hollywood 1971)

Farhad2000 says...

This address to the studio owners of Paramount was pivotal for the young producer Robert Evans, as future backing for Paramount films and projects hinged on this. While narcissistic and bold it was effective in conveying what Evans envisioned for Paramount in 1971, it payed off with large box office sales and Robert Evans went on to produce Rosemary's Baby, Love Story, The Godfather and Chinatown.

This film was released for the first time in the 2002 movie adaptation of The Kid Stays in the Picture, an autobiography penned by Robert Evans. The motion picture adaptation of the same book was directed by Nanette Burstein and Brett Morgen.

The movie chronicles Evans' rise from childhood to radio star to film star to production chief of Paramount Pictures to independent producer, his marriage to Ali MacGraw and his downfall including his 1980 Cocaine bust and implication in the murder of Roy Radin, aka "The Cotton Club Murder" and his banishment from Paramount Pictures, and his return to the studio in the early 1990s.

A wonderful film for anyone interested in the real behind the scenes of Hollywood. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0303353/

The film version, released in 2002, utilizes Evans' narration interspersed with film footage from films such as The Sun Also Rises, Rosemary's Baby, Chinatown, and The Godfather, along with interviews and photographs from Evans' life, to tell the story from his discovery by Norma Shearer for Man of a Thousand Faces, to his return to Paramount Pictures.
