Our movie of the week is No Man Of Her Own (1950) starring the legendary Barbara Stanwyck. It's a noir, though not in the more traditional femme fatale format - see Stanwyck in Double Indemnity (1944) for that! We think you'll like the different storyline of this particular noir.

We love classic music too. Ron Howard's new Beatles documentary opens this Friday at theaters and in a new twist that might become *classic* it will be available to stream the next day on Hulu.

Included in the new film will be 30 minutes of previously unseen footage of the legendary band that in its early days, just like other bands, was trying really hard to book their next gig.

From The Hollywood Reporter:

"We started with vinyl, went to CD. … Now, it's streaming," says Ringo Starr as he and Paul McCartney discuss the director's new Fab Four film, which hits theaters Sept. 16.

September 24th 2016 is World Art House Cinema Day! These little but important theaters continue to survive and thrive with even more theaters opening or being restored in recent times.

Much like the artists whose work they exhibit, they do so without a lot of money and rely on the continued support of patrons, members and fans.

Not only are some of these cinemas landmarks (or close to it) they help preserve some of the best films ever made/being made. Show your support for your art house cinema by celebrating World Art House Cinema Day. Find out how here:
