Here’s a Woody Allen foursome by famous Frenchman, Jean-Michel Folon (September, Purple Rose of Cairo) and two other classics (via EatBrie)…

Old Woody
But wait, you can’t forget the classics — even if they’re all in black-and-white!
Mia’s Diamonds
WIth all the hub bub about Mia Farrow taking the stand against Naomi Campbell in the “blood diamonds” case, it got me thinking back to her glory days as a performer when she was Woody Allen’s muse…
The Rolling Road Show Comes To Town
Starting tonight, The Rolling Road Show by Levi’s and Alamo Drafthouse celebrates the “We Are All Workers” Tour by rolling out a bunch of free movie screenings all over the country featuring such films as Dirty Harry, On The Waterfront, Jackie Brown, Rocky, There Will Be Blood, The Blues Brothers, Convoy/Red Dawn, The Godfather Part 2, and Robocop…So check your local listings!
The movie posters below were all done by sizzling-hot young Brit artist, Olly Moss.
Aniston Meets Streisand!
The Internets have been on fire with pics of Jennifer Aniston doing her best Barbra Streisand for Harper’s Bazaar. Although I never thought there was much of a resemblance between the two, it’s hard not to see the similarities in the types of films they’ve both chosen to do over the years — especially when it comes to the looks of their one-sheets!
Poster Nirvana Rocks!
If Kurt Cobain were alive today, he might say that the movie poster collection on Poster Nirvana was in full bloom. Mel, the owner, just recently started collecting back in March 2009 and has quickly amassed a nice solid stash of contemporary classics — and his website neatly divvies up his holdings by ratings, decade, genres, and sub-genres. Another cool facet of his site is the “Recalled Section” where he provides some interesting back stories to how and why several big-time movie posters (Clockers, Dick Tracy, Pulp Fiction, and more) were pulled by their respective studios over the years.
Although it appears that he’s a major fan of the franchises like Star Wars and James Bond films, he also has an impeccable knack for display as he seamlessly mixes in 60’s and 70’s mod pieces with 21st Century one-sheets …and yet somehow makes it all work. And I’m sure his framer must be one happy guy/gal!
Bicycle Thief Writer Dies
Sad to say, it was the end of the road for Italian female screenwriter, Suso Cecchi D’Amico, who died at the ripe old age of 96 this weekend. But judging by her tremendously prolific career, what a ride it was!
Beasts of Burden
Last week it was reported that Mick Jagger and Martin Scorsese are teaming up for a TV pilot on the rock biz called History of Music. Although Jagger will mainly serve as exec producer, it will be interesting to see how this project stacks up against his past productions.
EMoviePoster Trifecta!
There’s an International/non-U.S. poster sale ending today at EMoviePoster.com and I thought I’d showcase some of my favorite, but strange and wonderful artists.
In this corner, the Danish drama king, Stevenov…
Then there’s the Polish purist, Andrzej Krajewski…
And last but not least, the French leg-man, Jouineau Bourduge…
