Fans of LA's streetscape won't want to miss "Model Shop" (1969) when it plays the New Beverly Cinema next week. One of most geographically specific LA movies ever made, and a moody precursor to so many classic ennui movies of the '70s. It's like "Five Easy Pieces" with a Thomas Guide.
Let's see. 1949...check! RKO Pictures...check! Robert Mitchum and Janet Leigh as department store workers...check! Add a great kid actor and Harry Morgan as a cranky desk sergeant, and you have the makings of the greatest unsung xmas movie ever. "Holiday Affair" New Beverly Cinema 12/23
I know "Network" is acknowledged as Paddy Chayefsky's masterpiece of the 1970s. But for my money, his script for "The Hospital"(1971) is every bit as sly, dark, and profound. You'll have a rare opportunity to judge for yourself when it plays New Beverly Cinema on February 29.
I did the math: a full battery of coronavirus testing costs at minimum $1,331. I also did the legal research: the Administration has the authority to make testing free for every American TODAY. I secured a commitment from a high-level Trump official that they’d actually do it.
Happy birthday, Clu Gulager! 93, and still riding tall. New Beverly Cinema, #thevirginian, #lastpictureshow

Let's raise a box of hot buttered popcorn to the memory of Clu Gulager: film star, film fan, and the one guy I was always happy to give up my favorite seat at New Beverly Cinema to. That front row's not gonna be the same without him.
