This week on The Movie Gourmet – a new review of Joanna Arnow’s deadpan comedy The Feeling That the Time for Doing Something Has Passed – brave, transgressive and brilliant. I also wrote about the 1960 movie even more scary than PsychoPeeping Tom; if you missed it on TCM this week, you can still stream it on Amazon, AppleTV and Criterion.

REMEMBRANCES

Teri Garr in YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN

I was surprised that Teri Garr had 44 screen credits (many as a dancer, including Viva Las Vegas) before her breakthrough role as Inga in Young Frankenstein.  Then she played the mom in Close Encounters of the Third Kind, earned an Oscar nod for her most memorable role in Tootsie and went on to work in 200 more movies and shows.

You’ve seen David Harris in Brubaker, A Soldier’s Story, and NYPD Blue, but his most memorable role was early on, in Walter Hill’s indie cult classic The Warriors.
