One of 14 Egot (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony) winners, he has earned more major awards than any other living entertainer, and shows few signs of slowing down.

Hannibal just the appetiser for feast of Hollywood films being adapted for TV
10 May 2013 4:09 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
New versions of Barbarella, Lawrence of Arabia, Psycho, The Avengers and Zombieland are also coming to the small screen
His fondness for fava beans and a nice chianti is well documented, but when Hannibal Lecter returned in his latest incarnation it was in less charted territory.
After the series of books by Thomas Harris and a string of hit films, the world's most popular serial killer has moved to television for the first time.
Bryan Fuller's acclaimed adaptation, which launched in the UK on Sky Living last week, is part of a boom in big-screen properties being adapted for TV. After Psycho (adapted in the Us as Bates Motel) and the small-screen take on the Woody Harrelson movie Zombieland, (part of a move by Amazon into TV production), Joss Whedon is making a TV version of his Avengers film and there will be two competing mini-series of Lawrence of Arabia, »

What's The Latest On Zach Braff's Kickstarter Controversy?
9 May 2013 12:00 PM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
By Beckett Mufson
Zach Braff, famous for his role as J.D. in the sitcom "Scrubs," has raid just under $2.5 million dollars in donations for his new movie, "Wish I Was Here," with crowdfunding site Kickstarter—but not everyone on the Internet is as enthusiastic as his 35,000 donors.
Ten days after it hit the web, TV writer/blogger Ken Levine ("Mash," "Frasier," "The Simpsons") published a condemnation of Braff's Kickstarter, along with the "Veronica Mars" campaign launched in March, that went viral, gaining 600,000 views. Levine said, "Zach Braff is a good actor and a fine filmmaker. But I wouldn't give him a dime."
He goes on to say that Kickstarter is a site that should be supporting filmmakers with no other prospects the same way Sundance Film Festival did in the 1990s. "[Sundance] showcased modest little movies by unknown filmmakers. Kevin Smith made Clerks (1994)— a grimy black and white film starring all unknowns. »

Don’t Say No Until I Finish Talking: The Story of Richard D. Zanuck
2 May 2013 12:36 PM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »
The best part about “Don’t Say No Until I Finish Talking: The Story of Richard D. Zanuck” comes at the very end, when viewers are informed the producer/executive got to see the finished film three days before his death last July. It certainly would have been a shame if Zanuck had missed Laurent Bouzereau’s tribute, which hails him as the “consummate movie guy.” Produced by Steven Spielberg — whose career took off after making “Jaws” with Zanuck — the Turner Classic Movies production is warm and heartfelt, although to fully do Zanuck’s career justice, you’re going to need a bigger doc.
Zanuck — who died at the age of 77 — is interviewed discussing at length his complicated relationship with his famous father, studio chief Darryl F. Zanuck, who told him he would have to “overcome the circumstances of your birth” in terms of perceptions of nepotism. Their interaction took »

Allan Arbus, ‘Mash’ Actor, Dead at 95
23 April 2013 12:37 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
Allan Arbus, who ran a photography business with his wife Diane Arbus before becoming an actor who starred in “Mash,” died April 19 in Los Angeles. He was 95. His daughter Amy (pictured above) confirmed his death to the New York Times.
Arbus played Major Sidney Freedman, a psychiatrist, on the long-running TV show. “Mash” star Allan Alda said he found Arbus so convincing that he often opened up to him. “I was so convinced that he was a psychiatrist I used to sit and talk with him between scenes,” Alda told the Archive of American Television.
Born in New York City, he left college to work at Russek’s Department Store, where he met Diane Nemerov, whose parents owned the store. The couple married and shot fashion photographs before Arbus served as a photographer in the Army Signal Corps in Burma during WWII. After the war, they began shooting for magazines including Glamour and Vogue, »

Book To Film: M*A*S*H
31 March 2013 1:05 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Mash: A novel about three army doctors, by Richard Hooker, was first published in 1968. Two years later Robert Altman’s screen version was released, becoming the third highest-grossing movie of 1970 and picking up five oscar nominations. The film’s success led to the long-running sitcom of the same name, which went on to become easily the most recognisable version of Mash. The movie was a significant breakthrough for Robert Altman, both commercially successful and critically lauded, paving the way for his ascension in hollywood. Many of the actors also rose to stardom following the film’s success, notably Donald Sutherland and Elliot Gould. While the film may languish in the shadow of the TV series, the novel, never as successful as either, is now almost forgotten.
Mash was written by a former army doctor, Richard Hornberger, drawing on his own experiences in the Korean war. After a number of »

Geek Girl Navigating the World – There’s Nothing Wrong with a Humorous Cop
27 March 2013 5:22 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »
There’s been a lot of doom and gloom in the Geek Girl columns of late. I blame some of that on winter TV. Networks seem to run shows that are darker and more depressing during the winter. This isn’t to say that I couldn’t find some happier fare if I just set my mind to looking for it, but so much of it seems so inane that I end up losing interest pretty easily.
One of the things that I do seem to end up watching frequently are cop shows and procedural dramas. That’s no surprise, given the columns about “Castle” and “Elementary” earlier. It’s not a preference that I trouble myself over too much. I’ve also established that I am a fan of the genre blender. Mash-ups, especially those that seem unlikely but still manage to work have a way of drawing me in like nothing else. »

Michael Winner, Larry Hagman snubbed at Oscars 'In Memoriam' tribute
25 February 2013 1:38 AM, PST | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Michael Winner was among the stars who were not honoured at last night's Academy Awards (February 24).
The late Death Wish director - who died last month aged 77 - did not feature in the ceremony's annual In Memoriam tribute.
New York Times reporter Michael Cieply has claimed that snubs may occur if the family of a deceased filmmaker or actor does not campaign for the inclusion as much as others.
Cieply said that "there's no shortage of input from out there in the community", adding that the full list of the deceased is expanded on the Oscars website.
Dallas actor Larry Hagman, actress Phyllis Diller and actor Robin Sachs were also among the stars not featured in the tribute, which saw Barbra Streisand perform 'The Way We Were'.
Cieply also quotes late Mash actor Harry Morgan's son Charley talk about his father's snub at the tribute in 2012.
