TCM BREAKFAST CLUB SCREENING The Long Goodbye I 1973 Directed by Robert Altman With characteristic fearlessness, director Robert Altman dared to offend the purists with his 1970s interpretation of the Raymond Chandler classic The Long Goodbye (1973). It turned out to be a triumph for both him and its star, Elliott Gould. TCM writer David Humphrey assesses the film and describes it as a fine tribute to Altman, who died on November 20 at the age of 81. Raymond Chandler devotees were perhaps entitled to feel screen, and plainly gave priority to injecting comedy into the nervous at the news that Elliot Gould had been cast as Philip persona of Chandler’s sardonic, hardbitten private detective. For Marlowe in the 1973 movie The Long Goodbye. Bogart may have Brackett it was a return to familiar territory, as he had co-written been dead for 16 years, but many believed – and still do – that the script for Chandler‘s The Big Sleep (1946) with Bogie as his Marlowe was the definitive one. Anyone else taking the role Marlowe, 27 years earlier. The tale is satisfyingly labyrinthine in of the LA gumshoe would be like Rumpole without Leo McKern, the Chandler tradition: chain-smoking private eye Marlowe they reasoned, or Flash Gordon without Buster Crabbe. They had drives a friend from Los Angeles South to the Tijuana border and not banked on two crucial components: Robert Altman being in on returning finds his apartment swarming with LAPD’s finest, the director’s chair, and Gould on the top of his not who duly announce that he’s under arrest for abetting the inconsiderable form. -

The festival presents 12 films representing a cross-section of important cinematic works overlooked by audiences, critics and distributors. The films are screened in the 1,500-seat Virginia Theatre, a restored movie palace built in the 1920s. A portion of the festival’s income goes toward on-going renovations at the theatre. The festival brings together the films’ producers, writers, actors and directors to help showcase their work. A film- maker or scholar introduces each film, and each screening is followed by a substantive on-stage Q&A discussion among filmmakers, critics and the audience. In addition to the screenings, the festival hosts a number of academic panel discussions featuring filmmaker guests, scholars and students. The mission of Roger Ebert’s Film Festival is to praise films, genres and formats that have been overlooked. -

Falcone (“Bridesmaids”) will play the lead in “I’m Not Dead Yet” (working title) as Sandy Lazarus, a driving instructor who, after learning he has a potentially fatal heart condition, decides to start speaking his mind and grab life by the horns. This personality change is greeted by shock and skepticism from his wife (Pyle), father (Gould) and children. “I’m Not Dead Yet” will shoot in September. TV Land’s second pilot, “Brothers-in-Law” (working title), will star Mohr (“Last Comic Standing”), Cooke (“Better With You”), Woglom (“Outlaw”) Pierson (“24”) and Coleman (“The Newsroom”). The pilot focuses on the family dynamic between Neil (Cooke) and his wife Cheska (Coleman) as they adjust to Van (Mohr), the eccentric fiancé of Cheska’s twin sister Maddie (Woglom).
