After watching the fabulous Henry Fonda for President at #cineredis25 today I have impulse-bought the Bea Arthur series Maude on eBay. It will be queued behind Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman and The Mary Tyler Moore box sets, also recently purchased.
That documentary was wonderful; important to remember his liberalism was viewed as radical in its time. A bit of a shame about some of the terse Fordisms and evasions in the interview.

About to watch Diva (1981) on the IMAX screen at @cineredis.bsky.social. Haven’t seen it since *checks @letterboxd.social* May, 1988, when it was the third film shown in the first series of Moviedrome on BBC 2. #CineRedis25

I am not good at talking to people at events, but I wanted to say here that #cineredis25 is exceeding all my expectations. Just came out of Killer of Sheep an emotional wreck - thank you so much!
My first film of #CineRedis25 is the absolutely delightful Absolute Beginners, an ambitious and stuffed full of talent musical about the birth of modern Britain is 1958. It's also got David Bowie power walking up a giant typewriter.
