Le Ballon Bleu screens at the Julien Dubuque International Film Festival next week. I’m excited to be going back to this awesome festival, because "LADDIE: The Man Behind the Movies” won Best Documentary there a few years ago. If you haven’t seen that movie yet… see it!! It’s a wonderfully touching film about Oscar winning producer and studio icon Alan Ladd Jr. who produced and was responsible for green lighting: Star Wars, The Right Stuff, Chariots of Fire, Young Frankenstein, Braveheart, Alien, All That Jazz, the Omen, Moonstruck, Thelma & Louise, Police Academy, Blade Runner, and dozens of other iconic films. I was fortunate to co-produce this great documentary with his daughter Amanda Ladd. I highly recommend you watch it on Amazon if you haven’t already. https://julienfilmfest.com #LeBallonBleu @julienfilmfest #shotoniphone @filmmakermixerpodcast @womeninfilmla @wiftinternational @indiewire @indiefilmmakers @uclapro @pcpatheatre #femaledirectors #womeninfilm #femalefilmmakers @laddiemovie #laddiemovie

“Amanda’s film education began at a very young age, seated on the floor of her father’s screening room while he ran movies for Hollywood’s most accomplished filmmakers. Between that, visits to her dad’s office, and time spent on his movie sets, Amanda gained an insight into filmmaking to rival the best film schools.” - The Dream Cage⠀ ⠀ 🎬 LADDIE: THE MAN BEHIND THE MOVIES⠀ ⠀ Now Streaming!⠀ ▶️Sky Store, iTunes, YouTube, Google Play & Rakuten⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀ #Alanladdjr #laddiemovie #cinema #cinephile #LosAngeles #icon #hollywood #documentary #cine #cinemalovers #cinephilecommunity #movielovers #filmlife #amandaladdjones #film #setlife #filmmaking #filmmaker #cinematography #onset #filming #behindthescenes #filmschool #watchthis #newmovies #movienews #bingewatching #bingeworthy #whattowatch #nowwatching

“If Laddie had merely had [Star Wars] to his credit, he would be a major figure in the latter half of the previous century's motion picture landscape, but he had so many more in his filmography, making this documentary a welcome reminder of his hits and misses that became cult efforts with the passing of the years.” “his ability to be correct on so many movies, some way ahead of their time ... renders him an absorbing character to hear about.” -The Spinning Image 🎬 LADDIE: THE MAN BEHIND THE MOVIES Now Streaming! ▶️Sky Store, iTunes, YouTube, Google Play & Rakuten

“This is an absolute must see for any film lover. There is no doubt that we owe a debt to Alan Ladd, Jr., as many of the greatest films of all time wouldn’t exist without his passionate belief. To think of a world without Star Wars as a cultural touchstone seems unimaginable, but it was very nearly so. We all owe him a debt. So, on behalf of film lovers everywhere, thank you.” - Pop Horror⠀ ⠀ Thank you @pophorroruk for your review!!!⠀ ⠀ 🎬 LADDIE: THE MAN BEHIND THE MOVIES⠀ ⠀ Now Streaming!⠀ ▶️Sky Store, iTunes, YouTube, Google Play & Rakuten⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #starwars #Alanladdjr #laddiemovie #georgelucas #bts #cinema #cinephile #hollywood #documentary #cine #cinemalovers #cinephilecommunity #movielovers #filmlife #film #setlife #filmmaking #filmmaker #onset #filming #director #behindthescenes #scifi #sciencefiction #bingeworthy #whattowatch #newmovies #watchthis #nowwatching #interview

"THE CUTTING EDGE was scheduled to open on 27 Mar 1992 in 350 theaters, and would be one of the first films to be released by MGM under the new management team of Alan Ladd, Jr. and Dennis Stanfill... According to production notes in AMPAS library files, producer Robert W. Cort got the idea for the film while watching figure skating championships on television in 1990. He thought a skating pair was great, but wondered, 'What if they really hated each other?'" - @AmericanFilmInstitute Catalog ➡Learn more in LADDIE: THE MAN BEHIND THE MOVIES by following the LINK IN OUR BIO. ⬆⠀ . . . #laddiemovie #alanladdjr #hulu #movieproducer #filmproducer #AFI #criterioncollection #ice #iceskating #figureskating #olympics #christmas #90smovies #1990s #throwback #nostalgia #mychildhood #vhs #vhscollector #filmlife #hollywood #movies #filming #productionlife #holidayseason #happyholidays #holidayspirit #tistheseason #figureskate #90s

"The last MGM picture to shoot at [their] studio [backlot] under MGM's ownership was a Billy Crystal/Gregory Hines cop comedy ...RUNNING SCARED (1986). Following a long studio tradition, a banner proclaiming the upcoming title had been hung on the gigantic Metro Goldwyn Mayer sign atop Stage 6. After the sale, Lorimer was informed that a permit was required to remove the old sign because it had 'historic significance.' After a flurry of hand-greasing, the appropriate permits were hastily obtained." ➡Learn more in LADDIE: THE MAN BEHIND THE MOVIES by following the LINK IN OUR BIO. ⬆ Quote: "MGM, Hollywoods Greatest Backlot" by Steven Bingen, Stephen X Sylvester, and Michael Troyan . . . #laddiemovie #alanladdjr #hulu #movieproducer #filmproducer #MGM #backlot #studio #chicago #snow #christmas #christmasshopping #80smovies #1980s #throwback #nostalgia #mychildhood #vhs #vhscollector #actorslife #filmlife #hollywood #movies #filming #productionlife #holidayseason #holidayshopping #happyholidays #holidayspirit #tistheseason

"It's well known that George Lucas and Steven Spielberg are close friends, so when Lucas' STAR WARS eclipsed Spielberg's JAWS as the all-time box-office leader back in 1977, Spielberg took out a full-page ad in Variety magazine congratulating his old pal.⠀ ⠀ Once Spielberg's E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL reclaimed the box-office throne in 1982, Lucas returned the favor by taking out his own full-page ad in Variety. Lucas kept the tradition alive, taking out [a] full-page ad when, in 1998, James Cameron's TITANIC sank the reissue of STAR WARS to become the top box-office movie of all time." ⠀ ⠀ - @BusinessInsider⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ➡Learn more about the making of STAR WARS in LADDIE: THE MAN BEHIND THE MOVIES by following the LINK IN OUR BIO. ⬆⠀⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #laddiemovie #alanladdjr #hulu #movieproducer #filmproducer #starwars #themanwhosavedstarwars #vintage #1970s #seventies #vhscollector #hollywood #stevenspielberg #hollywood #behindthescenes #filmmaking #cinephile #filmcollection #80smovies #moviemaking #documentary #director #scifi #1980s #vhs #productionlife #filmproduction #production #movies #nostalgia
"Robin comes in and sets up the coffee table for lunch. Kanter and Wigan join Ladd today. Robin has already taken their orders. 'Paul and Marlon had a meeting,' says Kanter, speaking of Mazursky and Brando as he tosses his Cobb salad. 'Paul still doesn't understand what happened. You know in Superman you only see Marlon’s face and then his eyes. In his next picture you probably won’t be able to see him at all.' 'His idea was to play Superman's father in costume,' says Ladd. 'I asked him why he just didn’t give them the rights to his name,' says Kanter. 'He'd never have to leave home and he’d still get his three million.' 'Did he read the script?' asks Ladd.
