…. actually, who am I kidding?
Folks it has been a busy couple of weeks for me and in the coming days I will try my best to recap (with photos) my coast to coast film festival going.
Until then I just wanted to take a quick minute to thank both the Tribeca Film Festival and the Turner Classic Movies Film Festival for each putting son some great shows!
Hope you enjoy my coverage.
Happy Friday everyone! Now that the Academy Award nominations are out, I am certain that a whole bunch of contenders will be getting a sweet box office bounce.
I for one, plan on entering the fray this weekend by feasting a double-bill of Silver Linings Playbook and Lincoln.
How about you all – what (if anything) are you planning on heading out to the theaters to see this weekend? If you are not going to catch one of the several films that are in Awards contention, how about the other films currently on release?
Oh and I almost forgot – The Golden Globes are on Sunday! Will you be watching? I will probably give them a pass as per usual. Although I am torn since I got love for Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, who will be teaming up on the hosting duties … (maybe I will catch the highlights).
♥ LOVE ♥

Happy Friday everyone!
There are literally a ton of films that I would like to watch this weekend. In a perfect world, my weekend plans would include catching a triple bill of The Central Park Five (pass by theater showing it EVERY DAY), Anna Karenina (doesn’t this look lush?) and Lincoln (which I have slowly warmed to).
Instead I will be hunkering down and finishing up my Grand Jury duty with the Beneath The Earth Film Online Film Festival). Join me in watching some of the films by visiting the official website at: http://beneathearth.com/watch/

So, what are your weekend entertainment plans?
In honor of Grace Kelly’s 83rd birthday, here are a few clips featuring Kelly from two of my favorite Alfred Hitchcock films – To Catch a Thief and Rear Window:
Happy Friday ILC readers,
After much delay, I have finally returned to the blog-o-sphere.
Hurricane Sandy’s impact has been far and wide. For me, I can personally report that my family on the Eastern seaboard is all safe and secure. After a couple of days of delay, I was able to return back into the New York City area from my travels to London (more on that a little later).
Let me also take this opportunity to express my most heartfelt sympathies to those who were affected by the storm; I hope that you all will take a moment and think about ways you can help aid in disaster relief for the region. One immediate way is to donate to the Red Cross.
Also if you are Stateside, tune into Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together telethon, which airs live tonight at 8:00PM Eastern Time on NBC.
Hope you have a great weekend everyone!

One of my favorite actresses hit the big 9-5 today. In honor of her birthday, I decided to take a look back into my blog archives to find a collection of articles featuring her films over the past five years – enjoy!
Happy Friday Everyone!
The countdown begins … one week from now, I will have just finished Skyfall in London!
As you can imagine, plans for my (now annual) forthcoming hop across the pond got me thinking about creative travel related tie-ins that have not been previously posted in my 5 years in the blogosphere.
Well I found a new one – courtesy of the Londontown website. This go-around, I am staying in a hotel in central London – which got me thinking … how many hotels have been featured in famous movies? I am not saying that this list, London Hotels in Films is the most comprehensive, but I think that it is a fun piece of trivia for folks (like myself) who are into that sort of thing.
As for this weekend and going to the movies in particular, it looks like another weekend for me to continue the seemingly never-ending DVR-catchup/Netflix Game. Perhaps, in honor of [WARNING: DOWNTON SPOILER]
How about you? Any movie-related plans …
