The Gene Hackman ending being reported sounds terribly bleak…. Really sad to hear. He was one of my favorite modern-era actors, a true giant of screen acting. 🎭 📽️ 🇺🇸 🎞️ #film #movies #cinema #CineMastodon #MovieStars #ScreenActors #GeneHackman #RIP

From December, for the Criterion Channel:

“It would be a serious mistake to neglect Ida Lupino’s acting in favor of the eight features she made as a director…. Lupino was one of the best, most vivid and original actresses in Hollywood, making permanent classics with directors such as Raoul Walsh, Nicholas Ray, Michael Curtiz, and Vincent Sherman….” 📽️ 🇺🇸 🎞️ 🎭 #CineMastodon #ScreenActors #movies #film #cinema #IdaLupino

From last summer, on the career of the magnificent Kirsten Dunst:

“Dunst’s gift for encapsulating contradiction in her performances—dumb but smart, tough but vulnerable, worthy of both sympathy and scorn—invites us to bear witness to the complexities of her characters’ milieux….” 📽️ 🎞️ 🎭 #CineMastodon #ScreenActors #film #movies #cinema #KirstenDunst
