October 6, 1908: the brightest, happiest day in the history of mankind. Carole was born.

This.

Now showing on the big screen. A series of movies set in New York City.

This is how the world should be.

Last night I sponsored a screening of Dark Eyes (1987), a film directed by Nikita Mikhalkov. It was a private event in memory of a departed friend, and we showed the long cut, in which more of Isabella Rossellini can be seen. She sent us a touching 90-second video. Lovely lady.

Buongiorno.

One perfect shot. And a perfect film.

Could someone buy me this? Please

Can someone buy me this, please?

Strike Up the Band has plenty going for it, if you can get past that syrupy, sanctimonious doting-mama, obedient-son subplot. It’s visually stunning and the La Conga number is a hoot. And then there’s Judy.

One perfect shot. Also, Burt Lancaster's birthday.

Sisterhood.

A new week. Good morning.

One great shot. (From Bed of Roses).

Now showing on the big screen. A series of films based on stage plays. And the joy of a catfight between Annie and Bette on an 11-metre-plus screen.
