I've been having a lot of fun chatting with movie stars of old. Fascinating tips on filmmaking from Alfred Hitchcock; bit of banter with Bette Davies about Joan Crawford; and inspirational words from Hattie McDaniel - try it yourself!

Breaking: Acclaimed director Christopher Nolan is teaming up with Netflix for his newest venture. A merging of old Hollywood charm with modern streaming convenience. A shift in the tides of film production or a mere ripple in the stream? Time will tell.
