52 years ago today on March 17 1972, my favorite movie 'Pink Flamingos' had its premiere at the campus of the University of Baltimore. It's quite a film.
I don't recommend you watch this movie unless you're prepared for some weird and gross stuff. But I grew up in Maryland and it sure does sum up Baltimore in a beautiful and bizarre way.
I love John Waters flicks, and this one's my favorite forever.
Today (March 2) in 1933, the original King Kong premiered in theaters.
That's over NINE decades of the KING! And he's more popular now than ever. There was recently an animated series, a video game, a new comic series is coming out, another TV series is on the way, there's the toys, and of course Godzilla x Kong premieres at the end of this month.
Long live King Kong, the Eighth Wonder of the World. May he reign forever 👑 🦍

#CfP for #essay contributions on "Mitläufer, Wendehälse, Karrieristen. Opportunistische Figuren in #Literatur- und Filmgeschichte / Tag-alongs, Turncoats, Careerists. Opportunistic Characters in #Literary and Film History".
Heute vor 65 Jahren feierte die #Komödie "Schlag auf Schlag" mit #PeterAlexander Premiere, ein Remake des 20 Jahre älteren #HeinzRühmann-Films "Das Paradies der Junggesellen" (1939).

I went over my #goodreads2023 challenge! Many interesting reads. My favorite was James Curtis's Buster Keaton: A Filmmaker's Life. His film The General is my favorite silent film and, along with Keaton's other films, the story of it's production was fascinating! #busterkeaton#FilmMastodon#filmhistory@bookstodon#Bookwyrm

Ahead of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters and Godzilla Minus One, Polygon does a great breakdown of the evolution of Godzilla's design changes through nearly 70 years:
