Who do call when you need someone to be a crusty codger? In looks and voice, Gammon had the genre sewed up: in films since 1966, his was a pervasive presence on the tube (guest spots galore, but remember him as Zack Rosswell on The Waltons?) and the big screen (Cool Hand Luke, Silverado, Urban…

An extraordinary artist whose uneven output as a director nonetheless yielded some gems. Thrice nominated for Oscars (the screenplays of Great Expectations and Brief Encounter, special effects for One of Our Aircraft is Missing). From The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie to The Poseidon Adventure, few directors could match him for sheer craft or versatility….

Last night, caught The Doors: When You’re Strangeon PBS’s American Masters, Tom DiCillo’s wonderful, hippie-to-riches saga of the group that gave us L.A. Woman, Riders on the Storm, and every stoner’s lullaby, Light My Fire. Narrated by Johnny Depp, When You’re Strange tells a myriad tale—of Jim Morrison, a Midwesterner who succumbed to substance abuse the…

Over the past few months we’ve suffered the loss of pioneers the likes of who we’ll never see again: Benjamin Hooks, Dorothy Height, and now Lena Horne: she certainly deserves a place alongside those lauded blacks activists if onlyl because one could chart the progress of black civil rights in this country through the trajectory…

Strange or ironic, that on the day the Tony Award nominations are announced, a lovely obit for Lynn Redgrave appears in the New York Times. Sad that there’s been a run on Redgrave deaths (her brother Colin died earlier this year; her niece Natasha succumbed after a skiing accident in the spring of 2009). She…

The moment is indelible. Just before Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway lose their beautiful lives in Bonnie and Clyde, they exchange a series of glances interspersed with the rustling of bushes, the flight of birds. It’s one of those benchmarks in film, a few seconds of imagery that still retains the power to shake your…
