It's not great art, but everything about this movie deserves an exclamation point, including the title which will now always be to me: 'The Hideous Sun Demon!' I don't think I've ever had as much fun writing about a film as I did with this one! Classic Movie Hub CMBA

The film program for the 25th edition of the Arthur Lyons Film Noir Festival at the Palm Springs Cultural Center. Hope to see you there!

You want to introduce someone to classic films? See two of the best - 'Design for a Living' & 'Jewel Robbery' - tonight on @TCM with the added cool of factor hearing Rian Johnson ('Knives Out,' 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi,' 'Rogue One') talk about them. #twoforone

100 years ago today, on April 26, 1924, Metro Pictures merged with Goldwyn Pictures and Louis B. Mayer Pictures to form what would become the industry titan, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. This photo shows employees of the new studio gathering for the celebration in #CulverCity . #MGM

My sinus/head cold finally got the best of me and I had to call it an early #tcmff - missing Mel Brooks and the chance to say farewell to my wonderful TCM friends. Safe travels to all and see you next time.

Thanks so much to all the TCM fans who came out last night to pack the TCL Chinese Theatres and watch SPACEBALLS on the big screen for the TCM Classic Film Festival 2024 closing night. It was thrilling to hear so many laughs shake the theater! May the Schwartz be with you! #TCMFF

In the skies over Michigan, “someone” in a window seat just yelled “what” reading this tweet after spending 4 days in a dark movie theater with #tcmff as a default X search. Did I miss anything else??? (Good col, Mike.)

A huge shoutout to the young staff at TCL Chinese Theatres multiplex who worked very long hours at #tcmff keeping lines orderly, answering questions, helping folks and even led @TCM cheers. And they always smiled. I spent the bulk of the fest here and they were great. Thank you.

Alas, the kind folks at Egyptian Theatre LA tried to get everyone in and we were willing to miss the beginning (30 min. or so) but they couldn’t fit the rest of us in. Thanks for trying. #TCMFF

How do you know you’re among classic movie fans? At Sabrina today, when Audrey first appears in this Givenchy gown, the crowd cheers for the dress. As Jeanine Basinger said yesterday in accepting the Robert Osborne Award, we are a tribe! #TCMFF

With that long Spotlight line this probably isn’t happening but I must try! World premiere 70mm restoration. Egyptian Theatre LA #thesearchers #tcmff

Shut out of tiny House #4 (again), I’m forced to watch some guys named Bogart and Holden. It’s tough being me. #sabrina #TCMFF TCL Chinese Theatres #graumans

Go see Jeff at Larry Edmunds and support the world’s great cinema bookstore!! He has many signed copies of various titles on the shelves, too. Larry Edmunds #TCMFF

He aays he sleeps but I have a hard time believing it. Joel Williams has again done the turnaround from a midnight movie to being No. 1 in line the next morning all smiley and energetic. I was at the TLC Multiplex at 7 am for the first round of films and he beat me. #tcmff

Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman together again, before the screening of The Shawshank Redemption at #TCMFF . Robbins recalled that after the film, “people would stop me in the street and say how important the film was to them.”

Dana Delany really knows Gloria Grahame! #TCMFF

Historic news! Journalism jobs in New York state will soon be supported by a first-of-its-kind tax credit. newsguild.org/new-york-legis…

He was at last night’s midnight screening of “Road to Ruin” yet was up bright & cheerful to be No. 1 in line for nitrate showing of “Night Has a Thousand Eyes.” The tireless Joel Williams knows how to do a festival. #tcmff Egyptian Theatre LA
