Remembering June Lockhart whose lengthy career was filled with many interesting roles. A favorite: "She-Wolf of London," a far better-than-it-should be 1946 psychological horror film.

Rita Moreno is being honored with the George Eastman Award for contributions to the art of cinema on Oct. 29. If you can get a ticket, it’s well worth the trip to an Eastman event in the intimate Dryden Theatre in Rochester, NY.

Actor Eric Braeden was deeply moved and “overwhelmed” rewatching his 1970 film “Colossus: The Forbin Project” in a fantastic special presentation with Craig Barron and Ben Burtt at #tcmff. In a fest of great moments, this is at the top.

Filmmaker Joe Dante is one of us: a big classic film fan and lover of sci-fi. Highly recommend hearing him intro “Earth vs. the Flying Saucers” and “Incredible Shrinking Man” at #TCMFF.
