"Hello Delores." … "Hello Clarissa."
Know now what crafty old Hannibal has been up to.

A bespectacled Amy Schumer would have been just as good and much more fun.

Hey, 73 year old Gerardo definitely takes home the old fart trophy wife award with this young hotty.

Can't wait for Paul Thomas upcoming (yet untitled) expose on the 1950's fashion industry. Starring Daniel Day-Lewis as Christian Dior. Plus River Phoenix as Coco Chanel. And a special appearance by Peter Dinklage as Edith Head. A blockbuster!

Hell, he's still just old-timer Rowdy Yates.

Roger Ebert reviewed 11 films featuring Jean-Pierre Leaud, starting with Masculine Feminine (1966) and ending with Masculine-Feminine (2005). All got thumbs up. Three are in his Great Movies archive.

Melville served bravely with the French Resistance throughout WW2. "Army of Shadows" is even more poignant when realizing the story was based on fact. Never will forget film's final shot of another legend, Simone Signoret.

Jean Pierre Melville was the better than them all.

Can't wait to see what Blade boss Bryant (M. Emmett Walsh) has been up to.

Nina Hoss would be dynamite in the Dietrich role.

If they'd just cast M. Emmett Walsh, Ebert's old Stanton-Walsh Rule guarantees the movie would be a sure fire winner.

Kudos to immortal Elisha Cook Jr: "Keep on riding me, Captain, and they're gonna be picking iron out of your liver."

Old school here. Will the charge at the Winterfell front hold up as well as the still compelling charge in "All Quiet on the Western Front" (1930) some 85 years from now?

Find amusing how different generations remember their old childhood screen faves. For me, it's Clint here casting pals from his early TV cowboy days, like John Russell, Royal Dano, and ex costar, singing Sheb Wooley (Rawhide's Pete Nolan), immortalized for this megahit:

Blood Meridian, an unfilmable masterpiece. Wish I was wrong.

First thing Melisandre will need before reanimating Ramsey is a decent veterinary's stomach pump.

Ebert early on recognized Jean-Pierre Melville as one of the greatest and most overlooked giants in film history. L'Armee des Ombres was his masterpiece. Four Melville movies grace the critic's Great Movie archive. Walter Hill maybe wasn't quite in Melville's class, but he ably contributed to a lifetime of well made

Smashing. Thanks.

WITH GARY O'BUSEY AS O'REILLY!

Cool.
