James Stewart, Grace Kelly in Rear Window

Turner Classic Movies&#8216; Grace Kelly series continues this Thursday, Nov. 12, with  three of Kelly&#8217;s biggest hits, all from 1954: Dial M for Murder, Rear Window, and The Country Girl. Kelly, who died in 1982 following a car accident in Monaco, would have turned 80 on Nov. 12.
Some consider Dial M for Murder a minor Alfred Hitchcock effort. Personally, I find it more enjoyable than Hitchcock&#8217;s revered Rear Window. Part of the reason is a pair of deadly scissors found in the former but not in the latter;  yet, I&#8217;d say that the chief reason is that neither one of Kelly&#8217;s leading men in Dial M for Murder is James Stewart. Instead, [...]]]></description>

Stating the obvious:  most people take great pleasure in idealizing  their idols &#8212; which is why idols are idols. 
Whether we&#8217;re talking of gods, saints, prophets, or pop stars,  the process is pretty much the same: flaws are expunged, deeds that never took place are turned into (at times miraculous) facts,  the Pantheon of the Immortals becomes their abode following their earthly demise. (In some extreme cases &#8212; assorted gods, Elvis &#8212; the idol in question doesn&#8217;t die, period.)
Grace Kelly, Turner Classic Movies&#8217; Star of the Month, is one of the lofty ones now dwelling in the aforementioned Pantheon. True, the flesh-and-bood Philadelphia-born (Nov. 12, 1929) woman (nee Grace Patricia Kelly) may have been quite different [...]]]></description>

A Cottage on Dartmoor (1929)

Uno Henning in A Cottage on Dartmoor
&#160;

Very  little in a career overview of filmmaker Anthony Asquith prepares a  viewer for the brilliant thriller A Cottage on Dartmoor, released by Kino, which he both wrote (from a story by Herbert Price) and directed. Asquith&#8217;s wonderful  but straightforward adaptations of Pygmalion (1938) and The Browning  Version (1951) &#8212; and, to a lesser extent, The Importance of Being Earnest  (1952) and Libel (1959) &#8212; do not really speak to the dynamics of this 1929 film.
The director fully embraces the tale of obsessive love in terms of  silent [...]]]></description>

Cary Grant in North by Northwest

Among the highlights of AFI FEST 2009 is the Nov. 2 screening of AFI Conservatory Alumnus  Daniel Raim&#8217;s documentary Something&#8217;s Gonna Live, which profiles several behind-the-scenes Hollywood veterans &#8212; most of whom have already passed away &#8212; including production designers Robert Boyle (who turned 100 this past Oct. 10),  Henry Bumstead (To Kill a Mockingbird, The Sting), Harold Michelson (Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Mommie Dearest, Dick Tracy), and Albert Nozaki (When Worlds Collide, The War of the Worlds, The Ten Commandments), in addition to cinematographers Conrad L.

		<description><![CDATA[Cinematographer and director Jack Cardiff, one of the early masters of color cinematography,  has died. He was  94.
Cardiff&#8217;s work as a cinematographer was quite eclectic, ranging from his partnership with Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger in the British-made Black Narcissus (1945) and The Red Shoes (1948) to prestigious international productions such as John Huston&#8217;s The African Queen (1951) and King Vidor&#8217;s War and Peace (1956), and to low-brow commercial fare such as Conan the Destroyer (1984) and Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985).
I&#8217;ve never watched Conan or Rambo, but I have watched more than 20 of Cardiff&#8217;s 60 or so features, and I can testify that whether working in art-house or commercial fare, Cardiff&#8217;s cinematography was invariably one [...]]]></description>

Jeanne Moreau, Henri Serre, Oskar Werner in François Truffaut&#8217;s Jules et Jim

In June, Turner Classic Movies&#8216; month-long series &#34;Great Directors&#34; will be celebrating the efforts of 52 films directors, from past and present, from Hollywood and overseas (though, as to be expected, mostly Hollywood).
Among  TCM&#8217;s &#34;greats&#34; are, inevitably, Alfred Hitchcock, Orson Welles, Billy Wilder, Steven Spielberg, and John Ford, but also Jacques Tourneur, Mervyn LeRoy, and Budd Boetticher.
Akira Kurosawa, Federico Fellini, Carol Reed, and Ingmar Bergman are four of the non-Hollywood filmmakers who have been included in the series.
Each weekday of the &#34;Great Directors&#34; series will feature  two directors &#8212;  one during the day; the other at night.&#160; The daytime lineup includes  Victor Fleming  (June [...]]]></description>

  Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint in North by Northwest

Production designer Robert Boyle, 98, a veteran with nearly 100 highly eclectic film credits &#8212; ranging from Ma and Pa Kettle at Home (1954) to Portnoy&#8217;s Complaint (1972) &#8212; will receive an Honorary Oscar at the 2008 Academy Awards ceremony on February 24, 2008, &#34;in recognition of one of cinema&#8217;s great careers in art direction.&#34;
Boyle, the subject of the 2000 Oscar-nominated documentary short The Man on Lincoln&#8217;s Nose, has earned four Academy Award nominations in the art direction category:  North by Northwest (1959), Gaily, Gaily (1969), Fiddler on the Roof (1971), and The Shootist (1976).
In addition to North by Northwest, he collaborated with Alfred Hitchcock on several other projects. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#34;No Cardiff-born screen actor has ever been remotely as popular at the British box office as Ivor Novello,&#34; says author Dave Berry (Wales and Cinema: The First 100 Years) in the article &#34;Novello Could Have Been a Hollywood Star.&#34; 
A leading star on the London stage, Ivor Novello was brought to Hollywood by D. W. Griffith for the leading romantic role in the 1923 drama The White Rose, starring one of Griffith&#8217;s favorites, Mae Marsh. Unfortunately, things didn&#8217;t go too well between the Father of the American Cinema and his Welsh import even though The White Rose is one of the best &#8212; possibly the best &#8212; Griffith film of the 1920s. 
Among Novello&#8217;s best-known British vehicles are The Rat [...]]]></description>

  Janet Leigh, whose shower scene in Psycho has become part of cinema&#8217;s pop iconography, died yesterday, Oct. 3, at her home in Beverly Hills. She was 77. In the past year, Leigh had been suffering from vasculitis, an inflammation of the blood vessels.
Though best remembered as the greedy (and unlucky) office worker who gets stabbed a zillion times in the shower in Alfred Hitchcock&#8217;s Psycho (1960), a role for which she received a best supporting actress Oscar nomination, Leigh had a remarkable career that spanned more than five decades. 
Remarkable indeed, considering that after being discovered by former MGM Queen Norma Shearer while at a ski resort in the late 1940s, Leigh (born Jeanette Helen Morrison  [...]]]></description>
