Basketball star Kareem Abdul-Jabbar  will join Turner Classic Movies host Robert Osborne  to present four of his favorite films in TCM&#8217;s &#34;Guest Programmer&#34; series on   Monday, March 22.
Most &#34;Guest Programmer&#34; evenings are devoted to the best-known old classics, and Abdul-Jabbar (and Raquel Welch&#8217;s on April 1) will be no exception. Abdul-Jabbar&#8217;s  tough-guy flicks consist of   two of Humphrey Bogart&#8217;s and two of John Wayne&#8217;s best-remembered vehicles, respectively, The Big Sleep and The Maltese Falcon; and The Shootist and Stagecoach. Who knows? Perhaps if you watch The Big Sleep a tenth time you&#8217;ll be able to figure out what actually takes place in that movie.
The following is a schedule for Abdul-Jabbar’s Monday, March 22, [...]]]></description>

As for the his chances of taking home a best actor Academy Award, Bridges remarked he wasn&#8217;t counting &#34;the chickens&#34; though he was thankful because &#34;these awards, that&#8217;s how we get people into the theaters.&#34;
Bridges, who thus far has been the most unactorish winner backstage, also talked about different topics, from his 33-year marriage (&#34;I&#8217;m madly in love with my wife. It was love at first sight&#34;) to the first time he got nominated for an Oscar, back in 1972 for The Last Picture Show, to stepping on John Wayne&#8217;s shoes in the [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s John Wayne day on Tuesday, Aug. 18, as Turner Classic Movies continues with its  &#34;Summer Under the Stars&#34; series.
One of the most popular film stars ever, John Wayne was almost invariably John Wayne (or the screen version of himself) no matter who or what he played. But then again, the same can be said of Gary Cooper, Cary Grant, Humphrey Bogart and other well-respected actors of the studio era. I&#8217;m not quite sure why Wayne is generally regarded as less of an actor than those other performers, but perhaps one explanation is that Westerns and war movies aren&#8217;t perceived as settings for a real actor, and Wayne made his [...]]]></description>

Paramount Home Entertainment and Paramount’s Worldwide Television Distribution, in association with  John Wayne’s old Batjac Productions, will be distributing several Wayne titles on DVD beginning in spring 2005. 
The upcoming releases include:

 Island in the Sky (1953), a rarely seen adventure film about a plane crash in sub-Arctic Canada; 
Hondo (1953), a Western based on a story by Louis L’Amour, who was erroneously nominated for an Academy Award in — and was later withdrawn from — the Motion Picture Story category; additionally, Hondo earned Geraldine Page her first Academy Award nomination (as best supporting actress); 
the comic Western McLintock! (1963), partly inspired by Shakespeare&#8217;s The Taming of the Shrew, and co-starring Maureen O’Hara and Stefanie Powers;
