Intentionally Disposable Art: The Teen Agers Films

I am not the only person unduly fascinated by a series of eight cheap, forgettable films released by Monogram Pictures between 1946 and 1948, all starring a malleable cast of diminutive, fully adult actors dubbed the Teen Agers.

These people, like me, have been around the block a few more times than necessary on bad movies, and know more than a little bit about 20th century film....

The day Jodie came out (and became the accused)

It's hardly a secret in Hollywood that Jodie Foster is gay. Everybody with an interest in her private life whether prurient or more personal has known it for at least as long as she has been an Oscar-winning actress, which is pushing 20 years by now. (She won an Academy Award for her role as a rape victim in 1988's The Accused, and again three years later for her indelible performance as Clarice Starling in Silence of the Lambs.) An equally open secret is that she is one of ...

But if the porpoise is a pig, the word "mereswyn" does remind me an awful lot of the word "Martian" which of course is about Mars, not the sea. But still . . . worth a query or two. -zas 7 entries found Related entries & more  Advertisement Related entries & more  Related entries & more  Related entries & more  Relate...
