Oh! This is was in the MOMA exhibit they have about press photos. Thought of you when I saw it.

Okay, New Yorkers, I need to know if somewhere on this street is Charlie McCarthy Square.

Visited MOMA this afternoon. They have a whole exhibit on classic celebrity press photography, and I saw a lot of old friends there.

Very excited to report that PRE-CODE ESSENTIALS is currently beating out a bunch of deceivingly-misnamed books and Wiki-slop in the Move Guides & Reviews category. amzn.to/4nSHLdM

Had a great time at the Silver Spring AFI! Next is Film Forum and Madam Satan Monday night!

Researching old trade mags as I put together my presentation for MADAM SATAN and my eyes bugged out when I saw this in an advert. I'd never seen Garbo's name attached to RED DUST before; that would have been a wildly different picture.

If you still haven’t picked up a copy of pre-Code Essentials, apparently my wife enjoyed it, so what are you waiting for? amzn.to/4qFyHLX

My local Dunkin apparently thinks Frankenstein’s Monster is famous for its luscious beard?

Sadly this article leaves out the Smokey and the Bandit TV movies from the 90s, where Smokey is dropped and it’s just Bandit and he drives a Dodge Stealth fighting bootleggers and carnies. Also one entry has the best title of all time:
