Happy 100th Billy Wilder!

[Rumpled Fedora]

I'd just like to salute my favorite director today. Bill Wilder (1906-2002) would've been 100 years old today. TCM is celebrating today with a 6-film festival along with a brand new documentary, "Billy Wilder Speaks".
Billy Wilder has directed some of my favorite movies, including Some Like It Hot, Double Indemnity, and Sunset Blvd. I know I'll be watching tonight! :cool2:

I love his movies! I have "Double Indemnity" on pre-order from Amazon.

And he was born on the same day as my dad! I, on the other hand, was born on the same day as Todd McFarlane, creator of "Spawn." [huh]

The Film Forum in NYC is doing a three week Billy Wilder retrospective.
thanks to Senator Jack for pointing this out to me

Darn, I'm entirely too late. I wasn't even home most of Friday.

Oh well, cheers to my favorite director of all time. :cheers1:
