Netflix has been teasing the final episodes of The Crown for months, and we're this close to delving into the last six episodes of the royal drama.

Newgrange Signs Business Affairs & Development Chiefs
Jackie Larkin’s Newgrange Pictures, part of Finnish film and TV studio Yellow Film & TV, has appointed a business affairs and development boss. Joan Lambe will oversee the company’s financing opportunities and strategic decisions along with aiding with the overall financial planning of the company. Ali Doyle, meanwhile, will work across the existing slate of film and TV projects and new programs. The pair’s past employers include MGM, HBO, Netflix and Wild Atlantic Pictures. “Due to the recent lull in the market following an unstable summer of strikes and general slowdown in the business, the growth plan had to be put on hold,” said Larkin. “But we’re in this for the long game and have seen these peaks and troughs before. I am so excited to bring these two amazing women to the team.” Arctic Circle producer Yellow Film calls...

Tatiana Maslany’s next TV role will be a world away from her current one.
The Emmy winner and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law star has joined AMC Networks’ drama Invitation to a Bonfire. She’ll also be an executive producer of the series, which is inspired by the codependent marriage of Lolita novelist Vladimir Nabokov and his wife, Vera.
The announcement was one of several AMC Networks made during its time at the Television Critics Association press tour Wednesday. The company has also named a new showrunner for its series Dark Winds and set a guest lineup for season two of IFC’s Sherman’s Showcase.

Even with an Emmy, Golden Globe, and a trophy case full of other awards, Jane Seymour still loves acting. And the 71-year-old is still on her game at the center of Harry Wild. In the Irish Acorn TV series, Seymour plays a retired literature professor who goes into crime-solving following a mugging. Of course, the respected actress is no stranger to starring in her own show. Who could ever forget her turn as the titular Dr. Michaela “Mike” Quinn on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman for six seasons and two movies? Before she heads to the 61st Monte-Carlo Television Festival, we caught up with Seymour as she reflects on the western drama’s impact and if we’ll ever see the good physician again. Tell me about your history with the Monte-Carlo TV Festival. Jane Seymour: I’ve been to the last three, four. I received a Golden Nymph one year.

Vintage high-end Film Noir from the classic year 1947! Low Mileage too — this long cut hasn’t been seen since the early laserdisc days. I didn’t know it needed restoring until George Feltenstein talked about it a couple of years ago. It’s a domestic noir crossed with Double Indemnity with a little An American Tragedy thrown in for good measure. Normally squeaky-clean Robert Young throws his hat into the ring with the lowest of noir hero-villains: in this one he double-crosses three terrific noir leading ladies. We can now spell ‘Unspeakable Cad’ with the initial Ry. The most amazing thing about The Warner Film Archive’s new disc is that it restores a full fifteen minutes — Eddie Muller screened They Won’t on his Noir City show not long ago, with no mention that it was the short, edited version.

“A Likable Cad”
By Raymond Benson
Robert Young had a career of playing mostly trustworthy nice guys—after all, one could say he was born to play Marcus Welby, M.D. on television. But in 1947, he took the chance of portraying an all-around heel, a no-good philanderer who married for money and looks for every opportunity to score with someone new. And yet, Young’s admirable qualities are still there, making his character of Larry Ballentine in the film noir drama, They Won’t Believe Me, a likable cad. He pulls it off, too.
Audiences didn’t take to the change, though, and the picture was a box office dud. However, the lack of profits when a movie is released is never a true indication of its quality. They Won’t Believe Me is an artfully crafted, well-acted, twisty tale about lies, fate, and luck.

No, this isn’t a documentary about the sorry situation faced by too many American homeowners. Howard Hughes takes Rko into SuperScope and color for this attractive, somewhat tame sunken treasure adventure starring his captive glamour star Jane Russell. No off-color advertising slogans this time around, but the show shapes up as a swimsuit catalog for Jane as well as her handsome co-stars Richard Egan and Gilbert Roland. Plus, the Latin rhythms of the incomparable Pérez Prado!

It’s night and a ship moves in the water through a dark curtain of fog. We see George Raft as Captain Johnny Angel on the bridge peering out into the pea soup as another vessel looms ahead suddenly in the darkness, abandoned and drifting in the water. Raft sounds the foghorn but there’s no response. He boards the derelict with several of his crew to search for clues as to what happened. They go below to the captain’s quarters and finds it wrecked. A picture lies on a desk in a shattered frame. Raft picks it up and we see it is a picture of him as a younger man standing next to an older one. A crew member enters the cabin and says there is blood below, and water in the hold, but no signs of life.

Army investigator John Haven is out to catch some crooks using stealth, his wits and a limitless supply of marvelous hardboiled dialogue. Dick Powell trades a trench coat for a cowboy hat, while luscious Jane Greer swaps a .38 snubnose for a dance hall dress.

As far as Hollywood was concerned, hardboiled pulp author Raymond Chandler was big news in 1944 and 1945, working with Billy Wilder on the Production Code breakthrough hit Double Indemnity, and getting two of his popular Philip Marlowe books transposed to the screen -- and not completely shorn of their racy content.
