Films in Review.

Films in Review has relaunched its site: "For those of you just dropping in, we're the oldest film publication in the United States. The National Board of Review of Motion Pictures was formed in 1909 as a reaction against censorship in the new visual medium, and to a lesser or greater extent we've always stood for that. The Board's magazine has taken many forms, and even several names, over the decades. Films in Review has been its moniker for the last fifty."

Recent items include Oren Shai's interview with Menahem Golan, nearing 80 now, as well as ongoing columns; the editors are also posting pieces from the "FIR Vault," such as Gene Ringgold's 1971 profile of Audrey Hepburn, James Robert Haspiel and Charles Herschberg's 1976 piece on "Jayne Mansfield's Starlet Days" and David Del Valle's 1996 talk with Curtis Harrington about James Whale.
