2017 TCM Classic Film Festival – Carpet Chat with SUZANNE LLOYD

TCM Classic Film Festival Carpet Chat with SUZANNE LLOYD.

A fave red carpet interview each year, SUZANNE LLOYD, granddaughter of HAROLD LLOYD, was back on the TCM CLASSIC FILM FESTIVAL carpet talking about the latest news on Harold Lloyd, namely, that he is going to become animated in a feature film!  And of course, how does one do a film festival with a theme of “Make ‘Em Laugh” without a Harold Lloyd film?  You can’t!  And that’s why the TCMFF Closing Night film is a screening of a newly restored print of one of Lloyd’s most famous films, SPEEDY, complete with live orchestra.

Tinseltown once again feels like the Hollywood of days gone by with the return of the 8th Annual TCM Classic Film Festival. As fans flock from across the country and across the Pond, gathering en masse at the TCL Chinese Theatre, Hollywood Roosevelt, Egyptian Theatre and more, the ghosts of cinema’s past come to life not only on the big screen but in the hearts of festival-goers and film fans alike.

Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Norman Jewison’s IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT, the TCM Classic Film Festival kicked off on Thursday, April 6 at the TCL Chinese Theatre with an Opening Night Gala and, of course, star-studded red carpet. Film critic debbie elias was on hand to speak with the stars as they made their way to the theatre where Jewison, producer Walter Mirisch, actor Sidney Poitier, actress Lee Grant, composer Quincy Jones and more awaited them.
