5/27/21 -- THIS WEEK'S CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW: Our 25th Anniversary archive is open!

Not only did Walt Disney tell fascinating stories on-screen, but his life contains plenty of stories that illustrate how Disney was as interesting as his many creations. The late L.A. tour guide and historian Stephen Schochet (HOLLYWOOD STORIES) presented a cornucopia of tales and anecdotes in his audiobook FASCINATING WALT DISNEY, which we get to revisit in this conversation from 2010.

As A QUIET PLACE II finally opens, we harken back to its star director's first film. A man returns to his small hometown after learning that his mother has fallen ill and is about to undergo surgery in the comedy-drama THE HOLLARS. With us are actor/director John Krasinski and actor Margo Martindale.

Plus: "Screen Scene" movie reviews (theaters or VOD if not specified) including ARMY OF THE DEAD [Netflix]; CRUELLA [Disney+]; PINK: ALL I KNOW SO FAR [Amazon Prime]; MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - 25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION [Paramount Home Video]; RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON [Walt Disney Pictures]; TOM AND JERRY: THE MOVIE [Warner Home Entertainment] and SUPERNATURAL: THE 15TH AND FINAL SEASON [Warner Home Entertainment].

CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW -- 5/23/24

THIS WEEK'S SHOW: Reel movie talk-- for real! 

"Film is forever," goes the old saying. Except that it isn't. Even 50 years ago, a huge chunk of early Hollywood movies were already gone, thanks to neglect and trashing of reels, and with each passing year, celluloid loses ground to its biggest enemy: time. 

FILM IS DEAD. LONG LIVE FILM! documents the slow fate of film and the efforts of a small-but-vital community of collectors and enthusiasts who have put in decades of effort to rescue, preserve and share as many celluloid stories as they can, whether it's 35mm and 16mm features, Super-8 home movies or rare formats. Joining us is its producer/director, Peter Flynn. 

Plus, "Screen Scene" movie reviews (all in theaters) including IF; THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 1; BACK TO BLACK and THE GARFIELD MOVIE.
