Rainer Fassbinder Retrospective (Nearly) Over At The American Cinematheque

June 11, 2012 by Tom von Logue Newth

What a pleasure it has been to wallow in the 16-film Fassbinder retrospective this past two weeks. For various reasons it’s not been easy to see his films in the theater, but now that distributers Janus hold this selection of (very nice) subtitled prints, one can hope that they’ll resurface more frequently.   The second […]

A Stupendous Weekend of Fassbinder at The American Cinematheque – More To Come

June 4, 2012 by Tom von Logue Newth

TCM Classic Film Festival: The Tingler (Dir. William Castle, 1959)

In the late 1950s, horror movie schlockmeister William Castle pioneered interactive in-theater gimmicks as a way to drum up audience cash (and buzzy word-of-mouth) at a time when television threatened to steal away the same moviegoers who had made the 1930s and ’40s boom years for the U.S. film industry. Whereas other filmmakers of the […]
