Miró's women, birds and stars. Miró instills life into his characters in his drawings.

Spielberg’s favourite war film, and Tarantino’s favourite “men on a mission” film.
Geoff Dyer points out in his funny ‘Broadsword Calling Danny Boy’ : “Squinting is pretty much the limit of Eastwood’s facial range as an actor;” “not just squinting, but squinting in German”.

Patrick Stewart was spectacular.
He brought Shakespearean gravitas to space and helped make Star Trek a dramatic powerhouse. This scene is a masterclass in screen acting: he displays two distinct emotions at once, and does it beautifully.
We’ve lost an absolute titan.

En "Mi cena con André" (1981) asistimos como comensales invisibles a un auténtico prodigio de Malle: sostener casi de forma exclusiva los recursos convencionales de una película en el puro diálogo, sin reminiscencias de teatro. Dos mundos sentados en una mesa y atrapándonos.

Patrick Stewart jokingly wondered how he’d want to be remembered if it were his final public appearance, then delivered the punchline:
“Me.”
Even in a moment like that, his impeccable comic timing shone through.
RIP, Sir Patrick Stewart. ❤️

Sonnet 116. Patrick's favourite. Take one minute out of your day to hear the bard's words spoken by someone who lived by them.

Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart sharing the stage in Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot (2013). Two extraordinary actors bringing one of theatre’s most celebrated plays to life.

Rear Window, for its time, was pretty terrifying. Though no violence or blood is ever seen, it can still scare you pretty good. Just the suspense of the standoff between James Stewart’s character and the murderer across the courtyard is enough to have you twitching in your seat.

“Pleasantville” (1998), sigue siendo una película excepcional. Una de esas pequeñas joyas que en su momento no logró ser el éxito esperado pero que de vez en cuando hay que reivindicar.
Si tenéis ocasión, dadle una oportunidad ❤️

Mel Brooks on how Alfred Hitchcock reacted after seeing the premiere of “High Anxiety” (1977): “‘High Anxiety' premiered on December 25, 1977. At that premiere screening, Hitch sat right next to me. I had my own high anxiety awaiting his reaction. He didn’t laugh. He just sat and he watched. He only broke up once. When the birds let go and plastered me with their droppings, then I could see his shoulders shaking. When the film was over, he got up and walked out. He didn’t say he liked the picture. He didn’t say he hated the picture. He didn’t say anything. He just left. I was devastated. And really worried. Not long after, when I came into the office, there on my desk was a huge box covered with silver paper and red ribbon. I tore the paper open and underneath was an impressive wooden case with a label that read: CHATEAU HAUT BRION 1961. I opened it to see six big, beautiful magnums of Chateau Haut Brion 1961. A priceless gift of one of the finest wines ever made. There was a note:
"My dear Mel,
What a splendid entertainment, one that should give you no anxieties of any kind.
I thank you most humbly for your dedication and I offer you further thanks on behalf of the Golden Gate Bridge.
With kindest regards and again my warmest congratulations.
--- Hitch"

Jafar Panahi earned two Oscar nominations just about a year ago for It Was Just An Accident. But man, things can change in one year. Earlier this week, Iran has sentenced Panahi in absentia to five years and one month in prison, along with the confiscation of his assets and two-year bans on travel and social media use. I still am not clear as to why Panahi is even being sentenced in the first place. But my heart breaks for this man. He’s a defender of Cinema & humanity at large.

Catherine Schell couldn’t survive multiple takes of Peter Sellers’ Bogart impression in Return of the Pink Panther (1975) without breaking.
Blake Edwards finally had to give up and leave them in the final cut.
