Special Screenings Wings (1927) – 85th Anniversary Restoration, introduced by long-time Paramount producer A.C. Lyles Charles “Buddy” Rogers, Richard Arlen and Clara Bow star in William A. Wellman’s high-flying World War I melodrama, the first movie ever to take home Oscar for Best Picture. Wings set the gold standard for Hollywood when it comes to shooting aerial dogfights. Longtime producer A.C. Lyles, who originally saw Wings in 1927, when he was 10 years old, will provide the introduction. Black Narcissus (1947) – Hosted by editor Thelma Schoonmaker Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's powerful drama stars Deborah Kerr as a nun working to start a mission in an isolated Himalayan valley. Jack Cardiff's stunning color cinematography takes center stage. Sabu, David Farrar, Flora Robson and Jean Simmons co- star in the film, which will be introduced by Powell's widow, Oscar-winning editor Thelma Schoonmaker. A Night to Remember (1958) – U.S. Premiere of Restoration, commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the sinking of the RMS Titanic Decades before James Cameron swept moviegoers away with star-crossed lovers aboard a doomed ship, British director Roy Ward Baker presented a starker, less romanticized version of the sinking of the the "unsinkable" Titanic. This Golden Globe-winning docudrama, based on Walter Lord's definitive book, stars Kenneth More as the ship's dutiful second officer. The cast also includes David McCallum, Jill Dixon, Laurence Naismith, Frank Lawton and Honor Blackman. Rio Bravo (1959) – World Premiere Restoration, introduced by Angie Dickinson John Wayne, Dean Martin, Ricky Nelson, Walter Brennan and Angie Dickinson headline this top-notch western from director Howard Hawks. The story centers on a sheriff who enlists the help of various locals in order to keep a killer from escaping town. Wayne was reportedly nervous about his love scenes with Dickinson, who was half his age at the time. Elmer Gantry (1960) – Hosted by Shirley Jones Sinclair Lewis' incisive novel about a con man wooing a female evangelist comes to life in this powerful drama. Burt Lancaster took home an Oscar as the charismatic title character, with Jean Simmons as Sister Sharon Falconer. Shirley Jones earned Oscar gold playing against type as Elmer's former flame. The Longest Day (1962) – World Premiere of 50th Anniversary Restoration, hosted by Robert Wagner An all-star cast comes together to tell the story of the Allied forces' invasion of Normandy on D- Day in one of the biggest war films of all time. John Wayne, Robert Mitchum, Henry Fonda, Robert Wagner and many more star under the direction of Ken Annakin, Andrew Marton and Bernhard Wicki. The Pink Panther (1964) – Introduced by Robert Wagner Blake Edwards' hilarious caper comedy stars David Niven as a suave jewel thief, Robert Wagner as his handsome son, Capucine as a rebellious princess and Peter Sellers in his first performance as the bumbling Inspector Clouseau. Among the many delights are Henry Mancini's memorable music and Friz Freleng's opening sequence. The Thomas Crown Affair (1968) – Introduced by Norman Jewison Director Norman Jewison took the art of split-screen imagery to a new level with this sexy thriller about a millionaire thief and the female insurance investigator determined to bring him down after a bank robbery. Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway provide the on-screen sparks. Dracula (1931) Reprising the role that made him famous on Broadway, Bela Lugosi plays Bram Stoker's hypnotic vampire. Directed by Tod Browning, this horror classic also features Dwight Frye, Helen Chandler and Edward Van Sloan. Frankenstein (1931) James Whale's wonderfully atmospheric version of Mary Shelley's horror classic continues to reign as one of the greatest horror films ever made. Boris Karloff stars as the monster, with Colin Clive as Dr. Frankenstein and truly memorable makeup by Jack Pierce. The Black Cat (1934) – Introduced by Bela Lugosi Jr. and Sara Karloff Boris Karloff plays a devil-worshipping architect with sinister plans, while Bela Lugosi plays the doctor determined to thwart him in this visually sumptuous production. One of the most unique horror films to come out of Universal, The Black Cat features remarkable art deco sets designed by Charles D. Hall. Son of Frankenstein (1939) Basil Rathbone stars as the title character in this third film in Universal's Frankenstein franchise. Boris Karloff plays as The Monster for the last time, with Bela Lugosi particularly memorable as the deformed Ygor. The film features a tongue-in-cheek script by Wyllis Cooper, visually striking sets by Jack Otterson and spooky cinematography by George Robinson. The Wolf Man (1941) – Introduced by Academy Award-winning makeup designer Rick Baker Universal launched a new and highly successful horror franchise with this timeless tale of a man who becomes a wolf when the full moon burns bright. Lon Chaney Jr. turns in a sensitive performance in the lead role, with wonderful support from Claude Rains, Evelyn Ankers, Ralph Bellamy, Bela Lugosi and Maria Ouspenskaya. Special Presentations A Fine Mess: Laurel & Hardy – Introduced by Dick Van Dyke Comedians Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are put through the ringer in such hilarious shorts as (titles). Dick Van Dyke, whose comic legacy includes three consecutive Emmys for the sitcom The Dick Van Dyke Show, as well as a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Comedy Awards, will introduce the shorts and discuss the influence Laurel & Hardy have had on his life and career. "A Trip to the Moon" and Other Trips through Time, Color and Space – Presented by Serge Bromberg Serge Bromberg's Lobster Films has been behind many significant restorations and rediscoveries, including the restored A Trip to the Moon (1902), presented with much fanfare at the 2011 edition of the Cannes Film Festival. TCM Classic Film Festival passholders will have the opportunity to enjoy that magical film – which played a key role in Martin Scorsese's Hugo – along with several other rare shorts from the early years of cinema. The lineup includes A Trip Down Market Street (1906), Metamorphosis du Papillon (1904), The Acrobatic Fly (1908), the Ub Iwerks cartoon Baloonland (1935) and Georges Méliès' decidedly adult Apres le Bal (1897). Retour de Flamme: Rare and Restored Films in 3-D – Presented by Serge Bromberg Film historian and archivist Serge Bromberg will take the audience on an amazing trip through the history of 3D filmmaking. This "eye-popping" collection includes an early experiment in 3D from the year 1900, George Sydney's 3D short Murder in 3D (1931) and the Chip 'n Dale cartoon Working for Peanuts (1953), as well as two recent Road Runner shorts created in 3D. A Salute to Stanley Donen The TCM Classic Film Festival pays tribute to legendary filmmaker Stanley Donen with three of his films starring one of his favorite actresses: Audrey Hepburn. Donen, who received an honorary Oscar in 1998 for his body of work, will be on-hand to take part in the celebration. His career will also be represented during the festival with the world premiere of the 60th anniversary restoration of Singin' in the Rain (1952), which he co-directed with Gene Kelly. Two for the Road (1967) – World Premiere of 45th Anniversary Restoration Audrey Hepburn and Albert Finney star as a quarrelsome couple reminisce about their relationship during a drive in southern France in Stanley Donen's insightful drama. Henry Mancini wrote the score. The 4K digital restoration of Two for the Road was completed by 20th Century Fox in collaboration with The Film Foundation. Charade (1963) The TCM Classic Film Festival pays tribute to director and choreographer Stanley Donen with a presentation of this sophisticated mystery-comedy starring Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. Grant plays a man who helps widow Hepburn track down a fortune hidden by her late husband. Walter Matthau, James Coburn and George Kennedy co-star, with a terrific score by Henry Mancini. Funny Face (1957) Fred Astaire is a fashion photographer who turns Audrey Hepburn into a chic model in this highly stylized musical featuring memorable Gershwin songs.

Selected by Arthur L. Mayer, the series is planned as a representative sampling, not a comprehensive survey, of the horror genre. The pictures range from the early German fantasies and legends, THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI (I9I9), NOSFERATU (1922), to the recent Roger Corman-Vincent Price British series of adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe, represented here by THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH (I96IO. Milestones of American horror films, the Universal series in the 1950s, include THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (1925), FRANKENSTEIN (1951), his BRIDE (l$55), his SON (1929), and THE MUMMY (1953). The resurgence of the horror film in the 1940s, as seen in a series produced by Val Lewton at RR0, is represented by THE CAT PEOPLE (19^), THE CURSE OF THE CAT PEOPLE (19^4), I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE (19*£), and THE BODY SNAT0HER (19^5). Richard Griffith, Director of the Film Library, and Mr. Mayer, in their book, The Movies, state that "In true horror films, the archcriminal becomes the archfiend the first and greatest of whom was undoubtedly Lon Chaney. ...The year Lon Chaney died [1951], his director, Tod Browning,filmed DRACULA and therewith launched the full vogue of horror films. What made DRACULA a turning-point was that it did not attempt to explain away its tale of vampirism and supernatural horrors.

Think about how much the entertainment industry has changed since the Press Club introduced these awards in 2008. Arnold Schwarzenegger was our governor, not a Terminator. Netflix sent you DVDs in the mail. The iPhone was one year old. Fast forward to today and the explosion of technology and content that is changing our lives and keeping journalists busy across the globe. Entertainment journalism has changed as well, with all of us taking a much harder look at how societal issues influence Hollywood, from workplace equality and diversity to coverage of political events, the impact of social media and U.S.-China rela- tions. Your Press Club has thrived amid all this. Participation is way up, with more Chris Palmeri than 600 dues-paying members. The National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards have grown and changed as well. Tonight we’re in a ballroom in the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, but in 2008 the awards took place in the Steve Allen Theater, the Press Club’s old home in East Hollywood. That building has since been torn down. Our first event in 2008 featured a cocktail party with no host and only 111 entries in the competition.

    BOMBSHELL: the Hedy Lamarr Story

    ! BOMBSHELL: The Hedy Lamarr Story ! Directed by Alexandra Dean ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! **Official Selection – 2017 Tribeca Film Festival, WINNER “Best of Fest” Nanctucket, WINNER San Francisco! Jewish Fest AUDIENCE AWARD** ! ! ! ! DISTRIBUTOR CONTACT SALES CONTACT Emily Russo David Koh, Submarine Entertainment 212-274 1989 [email protected] [email protected] ! ! ! ! 89 min // USA // 2017 http://www.reframedpictures.com/bombshell/ SYNOPSIS Hollywood star Hedy Lamarr (ZIEGFELD GIRL, SAMSON AND DELILAH) was known as the world's most beautiful woman – Snow White and Cat Woman were both based on her iconic look. However, her arresting looks and glamorous life stood in the way of her being given the credit she deserved as an ingenious inventor whose pioneering work helped revolutionize modern communication. Mislabeled as “just another pretty face,” Hedy’s true legacy is that of a technological trailblazer. She was an Austrian Jewish emigre who invented a covert communication system to try and help defeat the Nazis, then gave her patent to the Navy, but was ignored and told to sell kisses for war bonds instead. It was only towards the very end of her life that tech pioneers discovered her concept which is now used as the basis for secure WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth. Hedy never publicly talked about her life as an inventor and so her family thought her story died when she did. But in 2016, director Alexandra Dean and producer Adam Haggiag unearthed four never-before-heard audio tapes of Hedy speaking on the record about her incredible life. Combining this newly discovered interview with intimate reflections from her children, closest friends, family and admirers, including Mel Brooks and Robert Osborne, BOMBSHELL (executive produced by Susan Sarandon, Michael Kantor and Regina Scully) finally gives Hedy Lamarr the chance to tell her own story.
