Today in 1959, “On the Beach” opened in movie theaters around the world. “The war started when people accepted the idiotic principle that peace could be maintained by arranging to defend themselves with weapons they couldn't possibly use without committing suicide.” — Julian Osborn (Fred Astaire)
An original one-sheet poster for "On the Beach," with the names of the cast, the director, and the title over an ominous glowing red and black cloud symbolizing a nuclear fireball. Above the title, a group of four silhouetted people in white stand o a white line.An original one-sheet poster for "On the Beach" featuring the following text over an abstract orange and yellow image evoking fire: "If you never see another motion picture in your life, you must see Stanley Kramer's production of On the Beach." At the bottom right corner are the words, "The biggest story of our time!" The names of the four principal stars (Gregory Peck, Ava Gardner, Fred Astaire, and Anthony Perkins), along with black and white drawings of their heads, fill the bottom left side of the poster.

REAR WINDOW was released 71 years ago today. One of the most enduring Alfred Hitchcock thrillers, and among the most popular films of James Stewart and Grace Kelly, the story of how it was made might give you the feeling you’re being watched… 1/40

www.gq.com/story/bad-mo... I used to read everything by Carl Hiaasen but lost track of him the past few years. I didn’t read Bad Monkey but the adaptation is my favorite show on TV
gq.com
Bad Monkey's Carl Hiaasen is the Mark Twain of Florida Men
An AppleTV+ adaptation finally captures the bestselling author's unique comic vision—and the anger behind it. “The best satire I’ve read has come from anger,” he says. “Satire is a weapon.”

‘The Exorcist’ is 50 years old, and its origin story is still haunting
When the classic movie first screened in 1973, it horrified audiences. It was inspired by a 1949 exorcism in Mt. Rainier that The Washington Post wrote about at the time.

My first ever post on Bluesky… Publication day for my translation of Hideo Yokohama’s The North Light. I loved translating this look at Japanese architecture and history, with of course Yokohama’s signature touches of politics and mystery. Where is the family? And why is the house still empty…?
