Around the Blogosphere This Week
Miscellaneous bits of news and fun stuff from around the Internet......The American Cinematheque is hosting a 70mm festival at the Egyptian and Aero Theatres from July 5th through August 4th, showing 39 films in 70mm. I'm very happy to have tickets to see the new restoration of NORTH BY NORTHWEST (1959) at the Egyptian in Hollywood next month, especially as I wasn't able to fit it into my schedule at the TCM Classic Film Festival in April.
...Newly announced Region B Blu-ray releases from Powerhouse Indicator: YOU AND ME (1938), WHEN TOMORROW COMES (1938), YOU'LL NEVER GET RICH (1941), and THE LADY IS WILLING (1942). Most of these are available in the U.S., but of course a great deal of the Indicator appeal is all the new extras they produce for each disc! I'm especially excited about THE LADY IS WILLING, which I saw often on commercial TV as a child but haven't seen probably since the '70s.
...Charlie Largent has reviewed the new Powerhouse Indicator Whistler set for Trailers From Hell.
...I enjoyed Jessica's review of Jessie Matthews in GANGWAY (1937) at Comet Over Hollywood. Another film for my ever-growing watch stack!

Happy to hear that TEACHER’S PET is coming to Blu-ray. Still need to get MEET JOHN DOE. And speaking of ClassicFlix, I was disappointed to hear that they will probably not bring back the DVD by mail service.
