A sad, sad day for classic film.

Film historian Robert Osborne, the effervescent primetime host of Turner Classic Movies since the cabler’s inception in 1994, has died. He was 84. TCM’s general manager Jennifer Dorian releas…

Yipee! BELLADONNA OF SADNESS returns to LA!

Described by L.A. Weekly film critic April Wolfe as a "transgressive, Medievalist circus of pleasures," Belladonna of Sadness is a film that has rarely seen the light of day in the United States, or really anywhere outside of Japan, where it was released in 1973. That is until the restoration company Cinelicious got its hands on a print and restored it to its former glory at the behest of Cinefamily's Hadrian Belove. As Wolfe wrote, "For fans of bizarre cinema, groundbreaking animation and all the glorious things our technology can do, Belladonna of Sadness is a classic with a second life thanks to some good old L.A. ingenuity." Cinefamily, 611 N. Fairfax Ave. Dec. 25-28; $12.

A stop-motion classic comes to life, a singles ball for single Jews, a run-in between Santa and some extra-terrestrials, and more to do and see in L.A. this week. fri 12/23 Nothing will live up to the whimsical 1964 stop-motion TV classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, but a new stage...

More love for our restoration efforts on PRIVATE PROPERTY.

"The restoration puts this film, whose elements were thought lost for decades, back in the spotlight and it does so with class. This restoration, like Cinelicious Pics work on Belladonna of Sadness, is remarkable and deserves all the attention it can get."

Leslie Stevens' 1960 film noir Private Property is an incredibly tense psychosexual thriller that is years ahead of its time. Stevens was probably best known as the creator of the influential science fiction TV series The Outer Limits, but before...

Graded by our very own Lynette Duensing. Congrats on an amazing job. Glad to see this crazy little film is getting the raves it deserves.

Anna Biller’s new film stars Samantha Robinson as a magical seductress whose charms turn out to be lethal.

"The restoration work here by Cinelicious Pics from materials from UCLA Film and Television Archive is a thing of beauty considering what this movie went through, and the treatment it has been given should make any film fan happy."

Presented by Cinelicious, Private Property, a b-noir thriller once thought lost, gets a brand new 4k blu-ray release. With the absolutely peerless Warren Oates (Two-Lane Blacktop) and the criminally underrated Corey Allen (Rebel Without a Cause), this is one release you will not want to miss out on. It is limited to just 3000 copies.

Damn it Jim, I'm a doctor not a cowboy! DeForest Kelley makes a repeat appearance in DEATH VALLEY DAYS in today's restoration efforts.

A nice reminder from the New York Times that film preservation and restoration is important!

We're so very proud that we help in this effort. Our restoration of BELLADONNA OF SADNESS (1973) has brought that film to an entirely new audience (having never been released in the US before).

PRIVATE PROPERTY (1960) was thought to be completely lost for over 50 years! With the help of the UCLA Film & Television Archive we've just completed a full 4K restoration and the film will be available on blu-ray/dvd in October!

What's YOUR "wish list" of films ripe for preservation and restoration?

Every day we lose more frames from beloved old films. Preservationists are rushing to save them before a crucial part of cultural history is lost.

It would be nice to see them make a comeback, no?

In a time when CGI rules the onscreen world, these hand-drawn movie posters represent a time when artistry was done by people, not computer
