When Netflix suggested I might like to preside over a conversation between Sophia Loren and Frank Langella, two titans of the screen and stage, it felt churlish to turn the opportunity down. They both appear in films handled by the streamer this year; Loren makes her return to screens after more than a decade away in The Life Ahead, directed by her son Edoardo Ponti, and Frank Langella delivers a blistering turn as Judge Julius Hoffman in Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7.
And what to say about two of the most accomplished actors of their generation that hasn’t been better spoken by the many decades of extraordinary work both of them have authored?
Frank Langella, of course, made his name in the theater, where he has won no fewer than four Tony Awards for performances in plays by Peter Morgan, Florian Zeller, Edward Albee and Ivan Turgenev.

It's not easy being a child star of the '80s. Few have made it into adulthood without drugs, audience disinterest or mismanagement sidelining their careers or halting any momentum they might've had. And in some cases, you turn into the pod person that was formerly Kirk Cameron. But for Ralph Macchio, he's avoided the tabloid headlines of some of his contemporaries, and fallen largely into a path that sees him riffing on his former celebrity. But he's lined up a role that could be a nice entry into more serious roles, or just a reminder that he's around, willing to work and that he's not the Karate Kid anymore.
Macchio has joined the sprawling ensemble of Sacha Gervasi's "Alfred Hitchcock And The Making Of Psycho." He'll be taking on the role of Joe Stefano, the young screenwriter who came in and adapted Robert Bloch's novel, winning approval...

Nothing is quite as rewarding as hearing about the reissuing of some great classic film scores.
Three classics will be seeing their soundtracks hit store shelves once again later this year, the first of which is coming thanks to the Mondo label. The company will be bringing Fabio Frizzi’s score for Lucio Fulci’s The Beyond to vinyl on May 22. Only 1,500 copies will be made, with 500 being made of clear, turquoise wax, so this is one you’ll want to keep an eye out for.

So, kinda bummed out by the depressing soundtrack for "The Avengers" that was unveiled yesterday? Well, these upcoming releases should make that alt-rock mess a distant memory as the scores for Lucio Fulci's "The Beyond," Vittorio De Sica's "Terminal Station" and Martin Ritt's "The Black Orchid" are all getting fresh reissues.
First up, Mondo -- who are also bringing the soundtrack to "Drive" on vinyl later this year -- are dipping back into early '80s horror, set to release Fabio Frizzi's score for "The Beyond." One of the famed director's biggest hits, the film starts with the murder of an artist in 1927 Louisiana, whose demise results in the seven doors of death being opened up to the living. And yeah, it gets pretty freaky from there. Frizzi was a regular collaborator with Fulci, and his work here is considered one of the best '80s horror had to offer.
