Silver Screen Happy Hour

Such an inspiration. RIP Kris Kristofferson

When we dream of and strive for success in pursuit of a musical career, looking at Kris Kristofferson’s journey is one to notice and study.
He wrote Janis Joplin’s anthem, performed musically worldwide, and learned to act. His gift made him a household name.
We create hoping our creativity touches souls. Kris Kristofferson indeed did that. Joplin singing Me and Bobby McGee would have been enough.
Rest in peace Kris.

I'm at the age where people I grew up watching are passing away. Seems like every notification I get, sucks. RIP John Ashton. For most, forever Taggert from Beverly Hills Cop, but an underrated role and film, Midnight Run, is the one I'll always cherish. - Jerome

From Hook to Sister Act, from Gosford Park to Downton Abbey, and while most will remember her for Harry Potter, there will always be a special place in my heart for Clash of the Titans.

RIP Maggie Smith, one hell of a long, great career.
1934-2024

Screenwriters are listening to our show. Are you?

In WICK UNFORGIVEN - Parts ONE and TWO, you can learn to use Blake Snyder’s beat sheet as a framework as Jerome meticulously dissects the scripts of Unforgiven and John Wick, and tackles the pacing, and character development. Along the way, he points out several intriguing plot issues, provides insights on ‘praise of the killer,’ and shares entertaining trivia…All while enjoying some GOOOOD Whiskey! 🥃

Now Darth Vader has truly and finally absorbed into the Force. Titan of stage and screen. I think I'll have a scotch tonight and watch "Field of Dreams" ...... and we all know how that's gonna turn out. 😢🥺

The honorary Oscar recipient and two-time Tony winner overcame a stutter to stand out in such films as 'The Great White Hope,' 'The Lion King,' 'Field of Dreams' and 'The Sandlot.'

June 4, 1982 - Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
June 11, 1982 - Poltergeist
June 18, 1982 - Annie

Does anyone use light better than Steven Spielberg? Between silhouettes and shadows, he drives cinematic impact with a single shot. Tell us your favorite use of silhouettes and/or shadows in ANY film from ANY filmmaker in the comments section!

The Silver Screen Happy Hour will certainly be toasting to this fine actor tonight, gone at 92. Might even have to have a cigar. We can't start naming films, cuz we'd be here all day, BUT "9 to 5" and "WarGames" specifically are not classics without him. Tell us YOUR favorite Dabney Coleman film in the comments.

The Texas native got laughs for his boorish behavior in 'Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman,' 'Tootsie,' 'Buffalo Bill' and much more.
