Excited to share that I've got a new essay in the upcoming Arrow release of one of my favorite Christmas movies, Bob Clark's creepy, seminal classic Black Christmas (1974). More info at Arrow's website @ arrowfilms.com/.../black-chr…
Elke had many talents. Here she is on the Jack Benny show in 1965 singing "He's a Clown." youtu.be/fKskR8QIXQk?is=YbuP…

RIP Elke. She was one of my favorite actresses & absolutely stunning. Last film I saw her in was Then There Were None (1974). She & Oliver Reed were so hot together that their explosive on screen chemistry obliterated all other memories I had of the film. 🔥

Oh, rest in sweet peace Elke Sommer. I worked with her on the Off Broadway play TAMARA in 1989-1990. She didn’t know any of our names so it was always “Hello, friend!” and “Where’s my wine?” For Christmas, she gave us holiday lithographs that she had made. Dear lady. #ElkeSommer
Looking for something to watch after seeing The Devils? I highly recommend Peter Medak's The Ruling Class. Both films skewer those in power & organized religion while featuring career defining performances from their leading men. They would make a good double feature. Link in bio

The Devils is having a moment! Back in October of 2019, I had a discussion about the film with the editor of "Ken Russell: Re-Viewing England's Last Mannerist" that I decided to republish on my Substack. Russell enthusiasts should find it interesting.

The thing is, it is illegal. It's just being allowed to go forward anyway.

The wren is linked to the arrival of spring in Celtic cultures.
Killing one is associated with bad luck, such as broken bones.
In Wales, the appearance of wrens signaled that spring was on its way. The Welsh word for wren is dryw, which means “druid.” #FolkloreSunday

Workers are now taking home the smallest percent of America's economic output since records began in 1947.
At the same time corporate profits are now at the highest point since 1950.

Someone needs to get a copy of Arrow's Excalibur release into Peter Jackson]s hands ASAP.
Peter Jackson laments the death of physical media:
“You can get Blu-rays and DVDs, but they’re almost a niche product for aficionados now,” Jackson said. “Since they only sell small numbers, no studio wants to put extended features on them or to extend the cuts. We did hours and hours of behind-the-scenes material for The Lord of the Rings DVDs, and so many people have thanked me for doing them. People would watch that stuff over and over again because it inspired them to make films. That’s all gone now, and I think it’s a real shame.”
Do you still get real books and DVDs?
