  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

I responded quite honestly: “High School Nettie wouldn’t have been surprised. She knew where we were heading.” She absolutely did. I have always been pretty sure I would end up with an advanced degree and I have always known what that would involve. The only question was one of how I was going to get here, but my favorite thing has always been watching television and movies. Once I learned that a job existed where I could watch television and, more or less, get paid for it, I threw myself wholeheartedly into pursuing that job. I get to watch television and talk to other people about it. That’s simply heaven for me. A lot of people helped me get here.

  • Johnny Loves Nobody Atrick Mcgoohan Was a Tough Man to Know
    The Rank Villainy of PATRICK McGOOHAN Ray Banks Johnny Loves Nobody atrick McGoohan was a tough man to know. Famously guarded and often opaque, his longest interviews often feature a moment of exasperation on the reporter’s part, typically manifested as an admission of failure. Two pages into a lengthy pro- file for Cosmopolitan in 1969, Jeannie Sakol sets Pout the impossibility of her task: “To even begin to understand the complexities of a man like Patrick McGoohan could mean a lifetime study of James Joyce, Irish Catholicism, the history of Ireland from Brian Boru to Brendan Behan, the heroes and scoundrels, and the woven threads of poetry, idealism, mother love and thwarted sexuality.” The real truth is that McGoohan’s chosen career was dictated not by ancestral history but by a bucket of coal. At sixteen, McGoohan was academically averse and painfully shy, the kind of boy who would watch the youth club dance from the street, safely swaddled in his favorite Mackintosh, “one of those universal, mass-produced, putty- coloured garments that make the average Englishman about as distinguishable as a grain of sand in the Sahara.” But when McGoohan was forced into a bit-part in the youth club play, carting a bucket of coal from one side of the stage to the other, he discovered that “being on stage, sheltered by the bright glare of the footlights, was a much better cloak of anonymity than a mere Mackintosh. On stage I found I didn’t mind what I had to do, or who I had to pretend to be.

    Freeview 81 Film Club Sky 328 Freesat 306 JULY 2019 newsletter Virgin 445 Dear Supporters of Talking Pictures TV & Renown Pictures, Talking Pictures TV turned 4 a few weeks ago, so a jolly happy birth- day to us! Here’s to many more years of preserving film history and making sure films and series don’t get left on dusty shelves where no– one can see them! I hate to think how old Renown Pictures is now…. We had trip to Devon this month to meet the wonderful Joss Ack- land at his home. We filmed with Joss for four hours as he delighted us with childhood memories and snippets of the strange sequence of events in his life and career, I can’t say too much – so watch out for the interview that will be airing on the channel later this year. We also filmed with the wonderful Tom Owen this month, what a lovely chap, fond memories of fishing on Brighton pier with his dear dad Bill Owen and some great insights into both his and his father’s career. We have received a number of complaints from people staying in hotels around the country recently that TPTV was not available on their hotel TV set. We should be available in all hotels but sadly the management of the hotels can be very lax at completing the tuning process on their TVs. If you stay somewhere and TPTV is not available please demand they re-tune so we will be there next time – it’s amaz- ing how many people have found us while on holiday and continue to watch us when they get home! This month we bring you the wonderful Mr Pastry Collection, fully restored from the original elements WITH SUBTITLES and some exclusive snippets from Richard Hearne’s private film collection as bonus extra features.
