For #ColumbiaSC folks, I have a slightly imperfect starter pack put together for new folks that are joining bluesky or if you want to get caught up with the latest folks. You can also join the #ColumbiYeah feed which by tomorrow should be popping up posts from local Cola members. go.bsky.app/Hc7D4nm
From Zita's wiki 😮: Johann briefly dated John Huston. In February 1933 she suffered injuries after a car accident where he had been driving drunk. Johann went through the windshield of Huston's car. #tcmparty

This movie packs a hell of a lot in only 65 minutes. It deserves to be more widely known and accessible. #TheSinOfNoraMoran #TCMParty

I just love the use of the dark filter to convey thought. It’s a clever way to do it in black and white. This film is still bonkers, but it’s a good trick. #tcmparty

My one pet peeve with this film so far (one!? Hahahaha) is that it’s not like the Governor is all that great of a guy. #tcmparty

I can’t even fathom what traditional audiences thought of The Sin of Nora Moran. It feels decades ahead in abstract storytelling. There’s a real Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind twist to the story. #tcmparty

Narrative structure?

A joke!
Boring!
So 1920s!
More chorus girls!

This is my first watch of this film, but if that was the first flashbacks this is GOING TO BE A WILD RIDE. #tcmparty

Fall is ending a little early here in S.C., but it’s lovely. (Yes, I said early!!)

A fun night. Til the next time when we kick more nazi butt ❤️ #tcmparty #RaidersOftheLostArk

Look, Americans putting an archaeologically important find that was secured under dubious methods and forgetting about it is actually the one real accurate archaeological thing that happened in this whole movie. #tcmparty

80s face ripping special effects are SECOND TO NONE. #tcmparty

Marion's big smile seeing Indy arrive is almost as coat hanger funny/ridiculous. #tcmparty

Maybe controversial, but The Last Crusade is my favorite Indiana Jones film. #tcmparty

I'm not certain that the death toll in Raiders of the Lost Ark is actually all that far off from Rambo. #tcmparty

The coat hanger is so funny/ridiculous #tcmparty

It's very easy to see the big leap in visual scale we take from Wizard of Oz ('39) to Raiders of the Lost Ark ('81) with tonight's back-to-back viewing, except for this admittedly terrible lightning sky effect over their archaeological dig. #tcmparty

The fact that he really only can be nominated for Best Score and Song makes it even wilder, the volume of nominations he's had. #tcmparty
John Williams has 54 Oscar nominations (including one for this movie), and 5 wins. Only Walt Disney has more nominations, with 59. #RaidersOfTheLostArk #TCMParty
