Show Notes
Dennis is joined via Zoom by Bryan Cooper who is one of the producers of Cinecon 61, a Labor Day weekend film festival in Los Angeles dedicated to rarely-seen classic films and the people who love them. Bryan talks about this year's honorees who will be appearing in person: Ann-Margret, Mamie Van Doren and Juliet Mills whose award will be presented to her husband Maxwell Caulfield from Grease 2. Bryan talks about how he learned to love classic films from his father as a child, his pubescent obsession with pinup girl Betty Grable and how in his home, there were often two VCRs recording classic movies at the same time. Other topics include: Cooper's great uncle Billy Gilbert who voiced Sneezy in the original Snow White movie, mimicking Mildred Pierce fierceness during arguments with an ex, the Carmen Miranda movie he's seen more than any other film and why it's important for him to keep Cinecon going.
