[Jérôme]

http://www.cinemaretro.com/index2.html

c'est un peu chéros (£ 26.95 pour l'Europe) pour trois numéros par an mais le contenu à l'air awesome et je dis pas ça parce que j'ai des potes qui écrivent dedans.

au sommaire du premier numéro qui sort en décembre :

COMING IN ISSUE #1



The eclectic nature of the Cinema Retro is exemplified with issue #1,

which is destined to be a true collectors item.



Limited to only 2,000 issues. Among the featured articles:



· “THE GREAT ESCAPE”: A TRIBUTE - twelve full pages detailing the making of director John Sturges’ 1963 WWII epic. There’s a reason why every man can recall where and when he first experienced this landmark film. Consider the cast: Steve McQueen, James Garner, Richard Attenborough, Charles Bronson, James Coburn, David McCallum, and Donald Pleasance- not to mention Elmer Bernstein’s magnificent score. (Did you know the main theme originally had lyrics? We found ‘em and offer them for your perusal in this issue). Our Great Escape tribute includes stunning photos and behind-the-scenes production stills, many of which have never been published before; original publicity campaigns from the film’s initial release, rare posters, and insights and trivia about the making of the movie.

· STEVE MCQUEEN: THE LOST INTERVIEW - a Cinema Retro exclusive! McQueen gave very few one-on-one interviews during his life, but a notable exception was granted to our own columnist Steve Mori who snared McQueen for an interview on the set of The Reivers. Incredibly, McQueen consented to the interview even though Mori was writing for his high school newspaper, and to date has never been read by the public (unless you were in Steve Mori’s graduating class!). Now, for the first time, hear Steve McQueen’s remarkable assessment of his own films and career in an interview conducted in 1969.

· “THUNDERBALL: BEHIND THE SCENES” - we’ll say it up front - our passion for the James Bond films will ensure that Mr. Kiss-Kiss-Bang-Bang has a notable presence in every issue of Cinema Retro. We don’t expect to hear many complaints, especially after 007 fans view six full pages of previously rarely seen photographs taken on location at the French chateau for the pre-credits sequence of the film. Rare shots of pilot Bill Suitor practicing flying the Bell Textron jet pack, Sean Connery holding court with the press and dining with stuntman Bob Simmons (still in drag as the deadly SPECTRE “widow”!) and many other fantastic shots designed to make even the most die-hard Bond clamour for more.

· “MAN OF ACTION: EUAN LLOYD” - he’s been called “The Last of the Gentleman Producers”, and with good reason. Euan Lloyd represents the epitome of the British gentleman- and his prolific work in the cinema reflects his revered status. In part one of an in-depth three part series, writers Mac McSharry and Terry Hine present us with an up-close-and-personal interview with the man behind such action-packed hits as Shalako, The Wild Geese, The Sea Wolves and Who Dares Wins. Lloyd’s remarkable life will inspire anyone with an interest in filmmaking as he recounts the frustration of finding financing for independent productions, inept studio executives sabotaging ad campaigns and dealing with fickle actors. His anecdotes about working with such legends as Albert R. Broccoli, Dean Martin, Richard Burton, Gregory Peck and Roger Moore are as fascinating as the man himself.

· RAYMOND BENSON ON THE BEST FILMS OF 1960 - the acclaimed author of the James Bond novels’ inaugural column for Cinema Retro is an analysis of the best films of 1960. We love these types of articles because they always stir controversy, and this one is no exception…. we’re already angry with Benson for leaving out some of our personal favourites. See what you think in the first of a series of articles Raymond will provide, each analysing the films of a specific year.

· THE “REAL” VAN HELSING: PETER CUSHING - No matter how successful Hugh Jackman’s latest incarnation of the fabled vampire hunter is at the box-office, no one will erase the image of the legendary Peter Cushing who portrayed the character in numerous Hammer productions. We pay tribute to the person who will always be the nearest to Dracula’s heart.

· “WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE GREEN HORNET’S CAR?” - Alright, the question may not have the same relevance as “Where are the weapons of mass destruction?”, but if you’ve been staying up nights wondering about the fate of the legendary “Black Beauty”, we’ll put your mind at ease with an interesting and insightful article about this movie mobile.

· “FANTASTIC VOYAGE: THE SOUNDTRACK CD” - Darren Allison gives us an in-depth review of the long-awaited original soundtrack to the 1966 sci-fi classic, released as a limited edition by Film Score Monthly.

· THE FILMS OF BARBARA BACH - Before she became Mrs. Ringo Starr, the sultry Bach raised temperatures with her eye-popping appearances in a wide range of low-budget Italian films, leading up to her memorable starring role in The Spy Who Loved Me. Tim Greaves, our resident expert on all female sex-bombs of the 1960’s and 1970’s, takes the first in-depth look at Bach’s remarkable career (and for the record, Greaves’ job is not open to other candidates!)

· THIS WAS CINERAMA- The first in a series of articles commemorating the ultimate theatrical experience. If you’ve never had the pleasure of enjoying a Cinerama production on the big screen, Cinema Retro recreates the excitement this short-lived process brought to the motion picture industry. Rare stills from Cinerama productions illustrate the articles.

· CLINT EASTWOOD’S FOURTH DOLLAR FILM? - At the height of the Eastwood/ Leone spaghetti western phenomenon, an opportunistic group of entrepreneurs attempted to cash in by insinuating there was a new collaboration between the star and director. We give you the inside story of this remarkable saga- including rare theatrical posters and promotional material.

· “T.V. OR NOT T.V.: ‘THE PROTECTORS’ FEATURE FILM - In the spirit of the aforementioned article, we debut a regular column that examines the short-lived phenomenon of repackaging television episodes for release as theatrical motion pictures. Most fans remember the success of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. “films”, but it may surprise you how many other series were released theatrically in Europe. Among them: The Persuaders, Bonanza, The Persuaders! and Mission: Impossible. In this issue, writer Jaz Wiseman gives us the story of one of the most obscure theatrical releases of Gerry Anderson’s The Protectors, the 1972 adventure series starring Robert Vaughn and Nyree Dawn Porter.

· PETER HAIGH’S ABC FILM REVIEW - Peter Haigh, the revered editor of the Britain’s famous ABC Film Review (the premiere UK film magazine of the 1950’s and ‘60’s) is onboard with Cinema Review to relive the glory days of this famous periodical. In his first column, Peter reviews the contents of the very first issue of the magazine he worked on and reflects on the British film industry of that era.

· CAROLINE CONFESSES - Caroline Munro, the sexy femme fatale of the British cinema, debuts a regular column in Cinema Retro in which she takes a sentimental journey through some of her most famous (and infamous) films.

· RICHARD KIEL’S TALL TALES FROM HOLLYWOOD - you know Richard from his many appearances in popular films like Silver Streak, The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker, Force Ten From Navarone, Pale Rider, The Longest Yard and numerous “B” sci-fi classics such as the notorious Eegah! However, Richard’s formidable physical presence is exceeded only by his talent and we’re proud to have him on board with a regular column in which he looks back on working in Hollywood during the 1960’s and ‘70’s. An amusing walk down memory lane with one of the industry’s most successful character actors.

Ma modeste contribution : j'ai fourni les affiches du "film" The Protectors / Poigne de fer et séduction.

Il a l'air franchement intéressant ce zine. Ne serait-ce que pour les reproductions d'ad d'époque (un peu comme faisait Dreadful Pleasures en son temps). On peut pas commander à l'unité ?

le numéro 2 est paru.

Plus abouti que le premier, même si les articles sont parfois un peu court ou servent de teasing pour de futurs articles.

Mais le récit du tournage de 3 mousquetaires par Christopher Lee est passionnant.

Vu à Album, hélas au prix un peu prohibitif de 14.90 euros (faut dire qu'à l'origine ce canard n'est pas donné : 8 ou 9 livres).

Dommage car cela a l'air pas mal...
