Re: New Developments III
Unfortunately, Lindsay Graham is not the worst of the worst.
He huffs and he puffs but he doesn't blow the house down like Tommy Tuberville or stand a chance of becoming Trump's VP candidate like J.D. Vance.

Re: R.I.P. Roger Corman
Are his films with Vincent Price - the Edgar Allan Poe lot, and many others - considered to be schlock? Maybe back then but today they are considered to be classics. Also many of the earlier horror schlock have been re-assessed. Take a look at the IMDb. ratings of his films. Those with a rating of ...

Re: R.I.P. Roger Corman
While most of the films Corman was associated with were pure schlock, he did have a classy side. His New World Pictures was the U.S. distributor of Amarcord which won the 1974 Oscar for Best Foreign Film, so he had a right to crow about that as well as his association with many of the year's other w...

Re: R.I.P. Roger Corman
He hadn't directed a film since 1990, but he continued as a producer up to his death with two films in pre-production.

Re: It's way too long since we had a quiz
Good to know.
I did know about Shaw and some of the others, but not Goldman.

Re: It's way too long since we had a quiz
I was looking for on-screen connections, not real-life ones between the characters that the mentioned actors were playing. I knew that Piaf and Garland met in real life and could have guessed that Churchill and the Iron Lady had met, but I probably would never have connected Hepburn and Goldman. Tha...

Re: It's way too long since we had a quiz
They all won Oscars for playing real-life people. Rainer and Streisand were Ziegfeld girls. DeNiro and Spacek won in the same year playing people who were still living and attended the Oscars with them. Blanchett and Stapleton played legends in bios of other legends. Cotillard and Zellweger played i...

Re: The 2024 Tony Awards
In addition to the 8 well-known leading players from plays, I count 7 out of the 10 leads in musicals as well as 2 featured players in plays and 6 in musicals as well-known actors. That's a total of 23 out of 32 nominees. In addition to those that are well-known from film and TV, there are some (Kel...

Re: The 2024 Tony Awards
Not yet. There were 16 new shows that opened on Broadway in the last month so it will take a while to get a handle on all of them which represent the bulk of the nominations.
