Comedy legend Mel Brooks introduced a special screening of “Dolemite is My Name” this weekend - it may have been the highlight of our lives. Mel has been our hero since we were 10 - nobody we admire more. Writer/Director/Producer/Genius. Here’s an excerpt youtu.be/ZJpEiYcEOBU

NORM.

“Whoooo Cares?!” Apparently the New Bev in August.

Just heard songwriting legend Alan Bergman passed away yesterday at age 99. So many incredible songs co-written with his wife Marilyn - winning 3 Oscars, 4 Emmys, and 2 Grammys. Here he is back when he was a spry 92 singing “So it’s the laughter, We will remember…”

The “Citizen Kane” ROSEBUD sled just sold at auction for 14 Million dollars!! Here are some pics I took when I was lucky enough to touch this piece of cinema history at Joe Dante’s house. So let this be a lesson - never throw away any of your props!! hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…

The Insider becomes more painfully relevant with each passing day.

With Michael Mann, Dana Stevens, and K.J. Relth-Miller at the Academy Writers Branch screening of “The Insider.”

THE CINEMATIC SCORES OF ALEXANDRE DESPLAT - an amazing first night at the Bowl this summer. Great music, great friends, great seats.

It was also how the WGA handled credit arbitration up until the practice was banned by Nixon in the early 70s. Here is Robert Bolt and Michael Wilson settling the writing credits for Lawrence of Arabia. It got pretty heated.

Not enough screenwriter nunchuck content out there.

SO EXCITED FOR THE JUST ANNOUNCED SEAN BAKER ENDORSED BLU-RAY "ORNELLA MUTI 1970S COLLECTION" WHICH INCLUDES FOUR OF HER EARLY FILMS INCLUDING THIS STUNNER “THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WIFE"- HER INCREDIBLY EMOTIONAL DEBUT FROM DIRECTOR DAMIANO DAMIANI FEATURING THIS GREAT MORRICONE SCORE

Evan Hunter’s 1973 sequel to “Last Summer”

Con un invitado especial, el maravilloso co-guionista del film, @larry_karaszewski, que después de escribir está película hizo el guión de Ed Wood de Tim Burton. Junto a @sancalori y @Mistererre1 intentaremos darle sentido a este hermoso festival del caos.

The film’s screenwriter, Daniel Waters, described his script for Heathers as hitting “the piñata of maggots dangling above the decade.” How an ’80s teen movie with an apocalyptic bent became an irrepressible musical is a roller-coaster saga of its own: nytimes.com/2025/07/08/the…

Gloria Swanson died believing her 1922 film Beyond the Rocks was lost, but 20 years later a print was found in the Netherlands

“Nashville” is my Independence Day film

I was a good boy once

Holy fuck “Last Summer” alert. July 24th. DVD screening.

Happy 99th birthday to Mel Brooks. We are all so lucky to walk the earth the same time as this wonderful, loving, brilliant, funny man. “It’s good to be the King.”

R.I.P. the great Lalo Schifrin. He changed the sound of movie music forever. So many classic scores “Cool Hand Luke” “Enter The Dragon” “Bullitt” “Dirty Harry” to name a few. Here we a few years back at the Oscars when he received his honorary Governors award. A super cool guy.
