Top 500 filme

Good Bye Citizen Kane ! Welcome Don Corleone ! Noul numar Empire a alcatuit ceea ce ei nuemsc cel mai ambitios top de film, 500 de titluri. Pe locul unu Nasul, pe locul 30 Citizen Kane. Pe 500 Ocean's Elven(wtf ? la fel ca in cazul a jumate din titluri). Majoritatea sunt americano dar si british, europenii si asiaticii sunt minoritari dar anumite filme-far rezista (Rubliov, Kurosawa, Du-te si vezi). Aprob locul 2, Raiders of the Lost Ark, pe 3 Imperiul contra-ataca, pe 4 Shawnshank Redemption (fan favorite, locul unu pe imdb, detronat de Nasul), pe 5 Jaws, The Dark Knight pe 15...already !!!



Criticii conservatori sunt mortificati, Empire e un etalon a culturii pop si mi-ar placea sa citesc in revista, de pilda, articolul lui David Fincher despre Butch Cassidy & Sundance Kid. Tot cool e ca au facut 100 de coperti diferite din primele 100 de filme...Pina la urma e doar un alt top...("it's along way to the top if ya wanna rock'n roll", cum zic prietenii de la AC/DC)

RIP Paul NEWMAN

s-a anuntat de anul trecut cred, ca avea cancer. 83 de ani (26 ianuarie)!! Tot anul trecut in mai a anunta ca se retrage definitiv din actorie. Ultimul rol, vocea la Cars-ul lui Pixar. Nascut in aceiasi zi cu Ndugu (zice el si our own Ceausescu, 26 ianuarie 1925) Here the big ones roll, more like drop like flies ! Hombre ! Am si acum poza lui din seria ACIN pe dulap in camera mea veche de acasa. Young Blue eyes !




Cel mai mare disparut de la Brando incoace, din iconurile clasice. Am desfacut acum si cofretul Colectia Paul Newman de la Warner pe care-l tinema in tipla de anul trecut, de pe care n-am vazut The Left Hand Gun, Young Philadelphians si Pocket Money. Nu stiu la care sa ma uit, mai degraba as revedea Hustler sau Verdictul. Ieri am mentionat de 2 ori finalul la Butch Cassidy si Sundance Kid (odata pentru Bolivia (next time i tell you to go some place like Bolivia, let's go some place like Bolivia!"), altadata despre vampirii lui Carpenter). Cool Hand Luke now ! Obituary pe imdb aici. I Know everybody up there likes you ! Down here too !!!!

Thank You For Smoking Redux !!!

pe blogul vechi am postat despre John Wayne la finalul carierei, pe cind avea cancer, in spoturile antitabac. -am pomenit si pe Yul Bryner. Dar nu am stiut ca starurile, si-n primul rind The Duke, au fost platite sa fumeze pe ecran. Rusine ! Cred ca Boogie (the real one) fuma totusi din convingere !

Hollywood Stars 'Paid To Smoke'
25 September 2008 5:04 AM, PDT


Acting veterans Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy and John Wayne were paid to promote smoking during Hollywood's "Golden Age", it has emerged.

The stars received huge cash sums from their film studios to advertise tobacco, according to researchers at the University of California at San Francisco.

One of the key documents uncovered by the researchers was a list of payments for a single year in the late 1930s detailing how much stars were paid by American Tobacco, the makers of Lucky Strike.

Actresses Carole Lombard, Barbara Stanwyck and Myrna Loy were handed $10,000 (GBP5,500) - equal to around $150,000 (GBP83,300) in modern money - to endorse the brand.

American Tobacco also sponsored The Jack Benny Show from the mid-1940s to the mid-1950s.

The authors of the study conclude the deals led to a rise in the number of young people who took up smoking in that era.
