Re: Shirley MacLaine to receive the AFI Life Achievement Aw
I also think that some may have been offered the honor, but declined. Katharine Hepburn for sure, and perhaps Paul Newman, Marlon Brando, Woody Allen and Doris Day.

Re: Mad Men
May your New Year dreams come true And this song of mine In three quarter time Wishes you and yours The same thing too They even named the episode after this song, and using Doris Day's 60s version on the jukebox was perfect. The Christmas Waltz also played over the end credits with a different voca...

Re: Mad Men
One of the other cultural touchstones of the week was a throwaway line. When Pete asked Roger where he got the ski equipment, Roger replied "Alen Funt brought it." Funt, or course was the creator and host of Candid Camera, a pretty popular show in the 60s. For some reason I really thought ...

Re: Mad Men
Wow, Tee, I didn't think anyone would have remembered "The Sadness of a Happy Time" That particular episode from the excellent Run for Your LIfe series aired soon after I had moved from NY to Miami. Just turning 18, I flew back to NYC every chance I got. Needless to say, I was feeling disa...

Re: Mad Men
I thought it was clever that they cut away from Don's fever dream for a few other scenes, then came back to it. It made me question whether it really was a dream; at least until it became obvious. Well done.

Re: 2011 Oscar Nominations
I'm a statistical guy when it comes to predicting Best Picture nominees. To me the most important associative nominations to have with a Best Picture nomination are Director, Screenplay and Editing - in that order. I did a little research, and for the 50 years before this year, there were 260 films ...

Re: Best Actor 1973
I don't think that the NSFC published their film books after the 73-4 edition, which is unfortunate. I only have two of the books and refer to them frequently. I found their six editions, 68 through 73 on line at Alibris Used Books.

Re: Best Actor 1973
Yeah Tee, Nicholson won the award in 74 for both The Last Detail and Chinatown. Fredric March finished third in their Supporting Actor vote and as far as Lemmon, he actually got two points from Judith Crist and one point from Molly Haskell. As a point of interest, the critics voting that year were: ...
