Can a nation organized and governed such as ours endure? A whole world looks to see what we will do. We cannot fail their trust. We cannot fail to try.
But, if you’re committing ultra violent rape and assault, you’re a damn sociopath, you sicko! #WrongMovie #SinginInTheRain #tcmparty

Why is #SinginInTheRain SO good? It’s not the songs—they’re fun, but not original. They’re 1920s period pieces. It’s the script. The script would work without the song and dance, and the numbers flow seamlessly from key points in the script. #tcmparty

1) one of the greatest double entendres in movie history
2) the censors are idiots

Don’s not interested in Lena from the start because his one true life companion is Cosmo. Oh, and because Lena is revealed from the first as a crappy human being. #SinginInTheRain #tcmparty

Love how Lena is silent in Don’s flashbacks. The reveal of her voice is shocking and hilarious. #SinginInTheRain #tcmparty

I grew up watching some of the folks who signed this editorial and they were the first to teach me what it was to be a journalist. Glad to see them standing up once again.

If you are enjoying #TheIpcressFile and want more gritty London working class espionage, I cannot recommend “Slow Horses” more highly. Oldman farts. ‘Nuff said. #tcmparty

The second best sub rosa supermarket scene in movie history. #TheIprcressFile #tcmparty

Only a couple of years earlier, Nigel Green, who plays the drab, humorous, mediocre Dalby in #TheIpcressFile, played the flamboyant, shirtless Hercules in “Jason & the Argonauts.” #tcmparty

Fantastic description of why #TheIpcressFile looks so fantastic, with a hilarious anecdote about cinematographer Otto Heller. #tcmparty

The other thing that’s just wonderful about #NorthByNorthwest’s script is that it spends little time pretending Cary Grant is anything other than Cary Grant, culminating with the “Stop! Stop!” scene. Of all Cary’s roles, is Roger Thornhill the Cary Grantiest? #tcmparty

Is there a more “Cold War” actor than Martin Landau? Leonard the gay commie in #NxNW, the paranoid defector in the Twilight Zone’s “The Jeopardy Room,” super spy Rollin Hand of “Mission: Impossible,” POTUS in one of the last Cold War era nuclear nightmare movies, “By Dawn’s Early Light.” #tcmparty

Really, how happy would Van Dam or Eve be behind the Iron Curtain? #NxNW #tcmparty

Lehman’s dialog for Eve Kendall in #NorthbyNorthwest is exquisite in its coolness and its sensuality, and Eva Marie Saint delivers it pitch perfectly. She is the toughest customer in the film, along with Landau’s Leonard. Bitches rule. #tcmparty

Strictly speaking, from a latitudinal perspective, of course, the movie should have been titled “WEST by Northwest.” #NxNW #tcmparty
This airport scene answers the eternal question: how can you travel North by Northwest?
By flying north on Northwest Airlines.

The auction house scene is my favorite in #NorthByNorthwest. It’s such a genius move. Too bad Cary wasn’t that creative when trying to come up with a new slogan for Wham! Ham. #WrongMovie #tcmparty

Bought by Hitch and Eva Marie personally at Bergdorf’s, after MGM delivered a wardrobe that was too bland for Hitch. #NorthbyNorthwest #tcmparty
And now is when we all rave about this dress because it is FLAMAZING. #TCMParty #NXNW

So ... Landon Thomas Jr. left the NYT in 2019 after the editors learned he'd hit Epstein up for a $30,000 donation to a preschool, and then ... he went where?

I can't find anything from him or about him since March 2023?

Ken Starr sends hugs to Epstein. Yes, the Ken Starr who had Clinton impeached for an extramarital affair. The Ken Starr who covered up abuse at Baylor University. That Ken Starr Satan’s waitin’ on ya, Ken.
Ken Starr signed an email to Jeffery Epstein with "hugs"
