Coming Soon!

It's time once more for the TCM Classic Film Festival!

After spending eight consecutive days at the 21st Annual Noir City Film Festival from March 29th to April 5th, now it's time to dive into the 10th annual edition of the TCM festival, which takes place from April 11th through 14th.

As usual, today will be spent at various festival-related activities, including a reception with TCM talent and executives as well as the annual gathering of classic film bloggers.

The movies begin on Thursday evening! My detailed thoughts on the schedule and my tentative plans may be found here.

Please follow me on Twitter for photos and updates in real time, then watch for my in-depth coverage here beginning next week. I also anticipate writing about the festival in my next column for Classic Movie Hub.

In addition to extensive coverage of the TCM Classic Film Festival, there's much more ahead here in the weeks to come, including:

*Additional reviews of films seen at the Noir City Film Festival.

*Complete coverage of the Arthur Lyons Film Noir Festival, which takes place in Palm Springs, California, from May 9th through 12th. I'll have a close look at the schedule posted here shortly after the conclusion of the TCM Fest.

*A review of the new book DUTCH GIRL: AUDREY HEPBURN AND WORLD WAR II by Robert Matzen.

*A review of TAKASHI SHIMURA: CHAMELEON OF JAPANESE CINEMA by Scott Nollen.

*A review of AVENGERS: ENDGAME (2019) near the end of the month.

*Numerous reviews of DVDs and Blu-rays from Kino Lorber and the Warner Archive.

*An Around the Blogosphere link roundup.

*And I'm hoping to finally tackle a series of long overdue photo posts!

Exciting times ahead...stay tuned and thanks for reading!
