April Wraps
Saturday, April 29, 2017 at 12:30PM April was a little odd for your host here offscreen and onscreen... well, April was a bit of a dead month wasn't it? We're giving it a gentle shove out the door this morning though there's a full day of it left tomorrow. But we still found cinematic pleasure where we could, whether that was covering the Tribeca Film Festival or making those Foolish annual first Oscar predictions.
A dozen highlights of April...
Betty Buckley Interview - on Split and her new CD. She's not a nostalgist
Corporate Afterthoughts in Toni Erdmann - all those oddly "decorated" spaces
Fast and Furious Rankings - Ranking the similarly titled movies
A Star is Born - yet another version. Thoughts on the first image of Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga
Jonathan Demme's Favorite Actors - an appreciation and farewell
Cannes Lineup / Jury - excited to experience the world's most glamorous fest in May?
Grindhouse 10 Years Later - looking back on the double feature that looked back
Three Fittings: Fantastic Beasts - on that surprise Oscar win for costume design
Big Little Lies / Kidmania - 7 hours of awesome / Nic retakes her throne
Marsha Mason a look back at her career for her 75th birthday
COMING IN MAY
Cannes glamour, New seasons of Twin Peaks and Sense 8, reviews of new releases like Alien Covenant, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2, Baywatch, new to DVD discussions of The Red Turtle, Get Out, and Oscar wining The Salesman, anniversary celebrations of Sister Act and Ladyhawke, and a week long Pedro Almodovar Party. Plus more episodes of all your favorite series including Three Fittings, The Furniture, Pfandom, and The Smackdown. Maybe even Hit Me With Your Best Shot (we're trying to decide).

Horror isn't your thing I know but will you see Alien Covenant,what do u think of the Alien series and it's actressing.
The Baywatch movie looks so embarrassing (and not in a tongue-in-cheek, subversively awesome 21 Jump Street kind of way either).
Can't believe it's been a pfull month since Pfandom. Looking way pforward to pfuture posts.
markgordon -- i love the alien series so yes, i'll see it.
mareko - UFF. i dont know what's holding me up. i pfeel so intimidated by my own pfandom ;)
Haunting photoshop.
Really hope the 63 Smackdown finally makes its way to the surface in May!
It will be fun to see a reflection on Ladyhawke. It's not perfect but interesting enough not to be forgotten as it seems to have been.
