Title: David Selby to Introduce Joan Bennett Film
Post by: MsCriseyde on March 10, 2011, 10:01:03 PM

Unfortunately, I just found out about this event, so I doubt any of our cousins will make it, but I thought it would still be of interest to those who cannot attend. As part of the San Luis Obispo International Film Festival, David Selby will be introducing Man Hunt, a 1941 film noir piece directed by Fritz Lang and starring Walter Pidgeon and Joan Bennett. He'll be introducing the film because of his Dark Shadows connection with Joan Bennett. The screening takes place this evening at the Galaxy Theatres in Atascadero, CA.

David is always so gracious and well-spoken at these events.  I envy any fans who do get the privilege of attending.

Indeed. And I'm sure he'll speak fondly of Joan and in such a way that will do her justice.

What a very cool thing.   My mother was big on Joan Bennett as a movie star... my only hint of this has been "Scarlet Street" thus far.

This is beyond cool!
It would be great if TCM had Selby host the JB marathon on May 11.
