I assume there's no connection to the 1967 film, "Fathom," starring Raquel Welch, right?

How I wish I could be there on the West Coast sometimes - screenings like this one at AMPAS; or a revival of some 70's grindhouse flick over at the New Beverly. I have to content myself with the Fathom Event screenings here at my local multiplex - so far Casablanca, Singing in the Rain, The Birds, and a double feature of Frankenstein/The Bride of Frankenstein have been shown. Next is To Kill a Mockingbird this Thursday. No special guests, but you do get Robert Osborne or Ben Mankiewicz hosting a short behind the scenes piece in front of the picture. Do you ever attend the Turner Classic Movies festival they put on in Los Angeles?<br /><br />Show People sounds like a corker - I love that they have the Marion Davies in-joke - that's very meta for a movie made only a decade and a half after the first feature film!<br /><br />I will also state for the record that I have never laughed at Garbo.Craig Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06037542638067599437noreply@blogger.com
