Frank Capra was originally set to direct IT HAPPENED ON FIFTH AVENUE but Roy Del Ruth ended up making the picture. Even without the "Capra Touch," it was a box office hit and has since become a holiday classic.

Before introducing the beloved classic “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” to the world, Judy Garland urged composer Hugh Martin to write a more lighthearted second line than “It may be your last.”
He landed on “Let your heart be light” instead, and the rest is holiday history.

We say goodbye to actor, filmmaker and activist Rob Reiner.

A dedicated storyteller with sincerity that imbued his prolific work and the causes he believed in, Reiner’s heartfelt portrayal of the human condition reminds us of the power of film and its abilities to stay with us.

"But this isn’t just a who’s who of the last 30 years of alternative music, this is Drink the Sea, the best band you’ve never heard of..."

Review from last night's Drink The Sea show in Portsmouth...

Supergroup featuring members of REM, Queens of The Stone Age and more make UK debut at The Wedge | Review
I could easily fill this review by talking about the various resumés of the members of supergroup Drink the Sea, but that wouldn’t do justice to what I’ve just witnessed at the Wedge.
