The six films that Humphrey Bogart and director John Huston made together are some of the best of Hollywood’s golden age. These men are also complex and endlessly fascinating. I spoke with author Nat Segaloff about their shared legacy and his new book, Bogart and Huston: Their Lives, Their Adventures, and the Classic Movies They Made Together.
Lately I’ve been fascinated by the roles Hayley Mills played in her early adult years. The parts she picked in an effort to shake off the Disney child-star image are a mixed bag, but through it all Mills was always mesmerizing. I could think of no one better to discuss this with than Kate Gabrielle, artist and author of the Scathingly Brilliant blog.
From the first rebellious strains of the title tune by The Red Crayola, I knew Born In Flames (1983) was going to be a special movie. It was an honor to talk about this timeless film with Director Lizzie Borden. She was deeply involved with the production of a new Blu-ray release of the film from Criterion Collection. We had a great talk about how Born in Flames was made, its evolving influence over the years, and how it felt to look back on it all in the production of this remarkable release.
