CLASSIC TV MUSINGS: Thinking about the inane rehearsed conversations with pseudo celebrities that constitutes current late night TV talk shows, & realizing on the same #DickCavettShow in 1971 the guests were #LaurenBacall #JohnGielgud #RalphRichardson & #RichardAttenborough #TV
Welles himself called it his best work.
CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT (1965)

I'm re-watching the languorous 1981 #BridesheadRevisited . I loved it from the start, but it moves me more the older I get.
It is the sublime tv adaptation, worth watching for #JohnGielgud and that heart-wrenching theme music if nothing else, but every performance in it is a gem
FILM OF THE DAY: Happy 90th 🎂 to great actress #EllenBurstyn here’s a superb 1977 🎞️ by brilliant late #French auteur #AlainResnais about a dying author’s #JohnGielgud real & imaginary relationships with his family, splendid work all around in thought provoking 🎥 #DirkBogarde
