Random Image Dump #20

Let’s mark the occasion of the twentieth edition of this ongoing visual-stimulation randomness series with a selection of vintage and old school photos. Sure, nostalgia and retro are part of our usual M.O. around here anyway, but hey, when you have a schtick you’re known for, it never hurts to lean into it and please … Continue reading Random Image Dump #20 →

Lost and Found: Night of the Juggler

Several years ago at my old blog, while writing about the criminally unsung Night of the Juggler (1980), I lamented that the now-forty-four year old movie is increasingly difficult to find, having never been released on DVD or Blu-ray.

A while back he posted them in celebration of a memorable scene from one of my favorite hidden gem Michelle Pfeiffer pfilms, I Could Never Be Your Woman (2007).

It also boasts a familiar plot this sort of movie, with a band of plucky underdogs going up against a (supposedly) heartless corporate overlord. For all … Continue reading Lost and Found: Gas Pump Girls →

Morgan Monday

We’ve celebrated several Michelle Mondays and Monica Mondays so far this year, but how about our first Morgan Monday? Yes, I think it’s time for one of the world’s great vixens to take center stage. Morgan Fairchild is the star of a plethora of trashy and not-so-trashy TV and film (but a lot of trashy), … Continue reading Morgan Monday →

Hot Shots of the Week: Karen’s Got a Gun

Wake up, Henry. She’s sorry!! Just a little love for Lorraine Bracco and the late, great Ray Liotta in Goodfellas (1990). Speaking of love, and at the risk of oversharing (uh oh, cringe warning), I loved the harrowing bedroom scene a lot when I was a teenager. I rewound and paused my VHS copy of … Continue reading Hot Shots of the Week: Karen’s Got a Gun →
