and sonuvabitch, the Sea of Love Q&A is sold out already.
― ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 8 March 2018 18:03 (six years ago) link
Did any of y'all go to the FF screening of Skidoo on Thursday? The Q&A with Austin Pendleton afterwards was one of the more entertaining such things I've ever seen. Dude's first film and he was opposite Jackie Gleason and, for one day's shooting, Groucho Marx. They were up late wining and dining the night before and were finally told they had to head out at 6 am for the shoot because the sea would be calm. Groucho: "Sure, the sea will be calm, but what about Preminger?"Also a very very cute moment where they brought Jonathan Lynn (who directed Pendleton in My Cousin Vinny) onstage - Pendleton originated the role of Motel in Fiddler on the Roof on Broadway, and Lynn did the same in London, which is how they met. Neat! Some nice anecdotes from Pendleton about directing Elizabeth Taylor in The Little Foxes. Etc., etc.

My comedian friend went. Did AP say anything about OP verbally bullying Groucho?
― ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 11 March 2018 11:45 (six years ago) link
No, but he agreed with the host's suggestion that it didn't seem like Groucho was having a good time in the picture. TBF, almost all of Groucho's scenes are just him in one room, sometimes with Alexandra Hay or Donyale Luna, so who knows how long he was even shooting and what his interactions with Preminger were like.

Woah, a bunch of these look super interesting. Never even heard of the guy before (though I remember admiring the poster for Roadie over in the claustrophobic caricature thread).

He's Altman Junior, basically. There's a bunch I haven't seen since they were released, but at the top I'd put Choose Me, then Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle, Equinox, Breakfast of Champions, Mortal Thoughts, Remember My Name, The Moderns, Trouble in Mind, The Secret Lives of Dentists, Afterglow.
Roadie is not well regarded, but I'd like to see Songwriter.

Update time! We're very sorry for the long delay in re-opening @vfbrooklyn at the Alamo Drafthouse. We intended to be open much sooner, but the initial plan for the store design ran into some serious design and logistical snags. We needed to rethink, redesign and start over.— Alamo Drafthouse NYC (@AlamoNYC) May 4, 2018
