TFH guru and man-about-town Larry Karaszewski is hosting a double bill featuring Ralph Bakshi’s outrageous animation landmark, Heavy Traffic alongside his raucous 1981 comedy, American Pop. As if that wasn’t enticement enough, Larry will be interviewing Bakshi himself during intermission! This is a one-of-a-kind event… and we’ve got two tickets that we’re aching to give to…

Roger Corman fans will be in hog heaven come this May when Kino Lorber Studio Classics releases one of his seminal films on Blu-ray, “X” The Man with X-Ray Eyes.

British secret agent James Bond gave the world its most famous drink order: “A martini – shaken, not stirred.” Even if you don’t like martinis, it sounds great in Sean Connery’s dulcet tones. If Bond had been a Russian, he might have asked for “Wodka – leave the bottle.” But then he would have been…
There is something quaintly American about cheerleaders. There is also something quaintly American about baseball, apple pie and white Zinfandel.
