After three wildly entertaining seasons, Netflix’s eccentric superhero series The Umbrella Academy is coming to an end. On August 8th, 2024, fans will be treated to the sixth and final episode, providing a “sexy, wacky” conclusion to the Hargreeves’ dysfunctional journey. Though plot details remain tightly under wraps, Netflix and the cast have dropped some major hints about what to expect from the imminent fourth season.
How Will The Siblings Regain Their Powers?
The Umbrella Academy
According to Variety, when we last saw Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Five, Ben, and Vanya, they had created and become trapped in an alternate 2019 timeline ruled by a villainous version of their adoptive father Sir Reginald Hargreeves. His Sparrow Academy is sure to create conflicts that will drive much of the action this season. According to showrunner Steve Blackman, the final season will pick up right where season three left off, finding the siblings...

Gen. Mark Naird will return to action this winter: Space Force Season 2 will premiere on Feb. 18, Netflix announced Monday.
The series, which was renewed in November 2020, likely will feel a bit different in its sophomore run. As part of a “creative revamp,” Norm Hiscock (Parsks and Recreation, Brooklyn Nine-Nine) has joined Greg Daniels as co-showrunner; Jimmy O. Yang, who plays Dr. Chan Kaifang, now also is a member of the show’s writing staff. In addition, production on the comedy has moved from Los Angeles to Vancouver.

The new year is indeed off to a happy start for The Umbrella Academy fans: Netflix on Saturday released teaser posters for the seven Sparrows that will populate Season 3.
The Umbrella Academy has been on hiatus since Season 2 dropped in July 2020, with only a few details known about Season 3. In October, Netflix revealed that new episodes would at least partially take place at Hotel Oblivion, an unsettling locale that first appeared in the third volume of the comics from which the series is adapted.

Review by Sam Moffitt
I love silent films! I have to say that from the beginning I have been fascinated with the silent years of film making. When I was growing up in the St. Louis area in the sixties there was a syndicated show called Who’s The Funnyman? Hosted by Cliff Norton this was a kid’s show which presented silent slapstick comedies, Hal Roach, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Harry Langdon, Harold Lloyd, The Keystone Cops. These were short versions, cut to fit a Saturday morning time slot and with voice over by Mr. Norton. He would always introduce the films as a record of his family members, cousins, uncles, brothers, sisters, and describe the predicaments we could see being acted out on camera.
How I loved that show! It made me want to see the complete films, I could tell they had been edited just as Channel...

Mary Pickford Building: The Lot aka Pickford-Fairbanks Studios Los Angeles just got uglier. Despite protests, the Mary Pickford Building on West Hollywood's The Lot has been destroyed by its current owner, the Cim Group. (See video below.) The Lot, as previously reported on this site, was built in the 1910s, when it was known as The Hampton Studios. Silent-era superstars Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks purchased the place, which they renamed the Pickford-Fairbanks Studios. That's where Pickford's and Fairbanks' 1920s blockbusters — Robin Hood, Rosita, Sparrows, and The Thief of Bagdad among them — were shot. Renamed the United Artists Studios, it also became the workplace for the likes of Charles Chaplin, D.W. Griffith, Norma Talmadge, Constance Talmadge, Gloria Swanson, and others. Independent producer Samuel Goldwyn also worked on the lot, where he made most of his later films: Frank Tuttle's Roman Scandals with Eddie Cantor, Titanic's Gloria Stuart, and...

Joan Fontaine-Charles Boyer in Rare The Constant Nymph on TCM. [Photo: Miriam Jordan, Neil Hamilton in Two Heads on a Pillow.] Besides the Edmund Goulding-directed Joan Fontaine-Charles Boyer-Alexis Smith movie The Constant Nymph, other Library of Congress Film Archive entries on Turner Classic Movies tonight include Two Heads on a Pillow (1934), a B comedy directed by William Nigh, an important late silent-era director (Lon Chaney's Mr. Wu, Ramon Novarro's Across to Singapore) later stuck with second-rate fare. Apparently a sort of Adam's Rib predecessor, Two Heads on a Pillow features former silent-era leading man Neil Hamilton (Batman's Commissioner Gordon) and minor leading lady Miriam Jordan as once-married attorneys involved in a divorce case. It's probably worth watching even if only because of its cast, which also includes silent-era veterans Betty Blythe (the title role in the now-lost The Queen of Sheba) and Claire McDowell (Ramon Novarro's leprosy-stricken mom in Ben-Hur,...

As you may have heard, Michel Hazanavicius’s “The Artist” (The Weinstein Company, 11/23, ?, trailer) — which made a big splash at this year’s Cannes Film Festival (where it was a serious contender for the Palm d’Or and its star Jean Dujardin was named best actor), and which will soon be seen again at the Toronto International Film Festival — is not only in black-and-white, but also silent!
Many credible analysts — including Harvey Weinstein, who is as savvy an Oscar-prospector as anyone, and whose studio purchased the film’s rights shortly after Cannes – believe that it is visually beautiful/emotionally powerful enough to seriously factor into this year’s Oscar race.
But could a silent film, in this day and age, actually catch on with the public and/or Oscar voters?
Most people today dismiss silent movies as lacking something — namely, sound — but that’s not a particularly enlightened position. After all,...

Given the recent furore over certain Sky Sports presenters being a bunch of sexist bastards, it seems a relevant time to celebrate the female contribution to cinema – which is still largely unappreciated with women directors still making up a small percentage of directors and other creatives. But they’re awesome and they’ve now got their own festival to show off their work.
We’ve been sent over the press release and festival line up. The Bird’s Eye View Film Festival takes place in London from March 8th – 17th. The programme includes new films, documentaries, retrospectives and panel discussions.
From the press release:
The hotly anticipated Birds Eye View Film Festival 2011 (Bev) programme has been announced by Rosamund Pike at a private launch event on 25 January. The Festival returns for its seventh annual celebration of women filmmakers from 8-17 March at BFI Southbank, the Ica the Southbank Centre, with...

Celebrating the centennial of actress Mary Pickford, the Library of Congress is co-hosting a series of classic films in which she stars in theaters around the country through December.
On Saturday, three films will play at San Francisco's Castro Theatre as part of the San Francisco Silent Film Festival: "They Would Elope," "Getting Even" and "The Trick That Failed."
On Sunday, three Pickford films -- "Elope," "Trick" and "Sparrows" -- will screen at the Alex Theater in Glendale, Ca. Co-sponsors include the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, Glendale Arts and the Alex Film Society.
"Mary Pickford has been called the 'Founding Mother of Hollywood,' because she was so instrumental in establishing the early film industry in that part of California," Library film historian Christel Schmidt said. "She was a shrewd businesswoman, and not only worked wisely to earn a spectacular salary for her acting, but also...
