National Lampoon: At Home with Julia
5 September 2011 1:45 AM, PDT | Encore Magazine | See recent Encore Magazine news »
At Home with Julia’s executive producer, Rick Kalowski is confident, his show will remain relevant for its full four week run on ABC1. Despite calls for Gillard to step down as Prime Minister after the mess of the ‘Malaysian solution’ Kalowski told Encore, “It would be annoying to see the Pm replaced in the next four weeks, but I don’t see it happening.”

Popular leading man Milton Sills stars. Next are two silents starring movie idols of the 1920s: The Thief of Bagdad (1924) and The Sheik (1921). One of Douglas Fairbanks' biggest hits, The Thief of Bagdad was directed by Raoul Walsh; this Arabian Nights romp is probably Fairbanks' most enjoyable vehicle of that era. Quite possibly, it's Fairbanks best movie, period. Starring Rudolph Valentino, who set as many hearts aflutter as Justin Bieber, »
