    Oscars vs Turner classic movies

    Turner has “The Longest Day” and “From Here to Eternity” while today’s Hollywood ignores Top Gun Maverick.

    What a steaming pile the movie industry is.

    I understand your sentiment, but folks here in Birmingham are very proud of a native son Daniel Scheinert who rose to prominence with his film Everything, Everywhere All at Once. We consider him a Hollywood outsider.
    Real Fan since 1958

    The actress and the supporting actor had interesting speeches (both from that movie)
    . His “this is the american dream” was 180degrees from hollywood’s usual hate america first attitude.

    Good point Mick

    BOTH of those movies are 100% CLASSICS. "From Here to Eternity" is one of my all time favorites!
    MOLON LABE!

    The Oscars were this weekend? OK. Good to know. I'll google for the half naked actresses on the runway, that's the only part that still has any interest for me. I have no interest in modern Hollywood thanks to their focus on just about everything but entertaining people.

    Then I'll go cue up a nice Cary Grant or John Wayne movie.

    People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.
