Rare Interviews With Golden Era Players Now Available Online

Post by silentstar5 » Thu Feb 24, 2011 11:49 am

Years before TCM was created Canada had its own version of Robert Osborne. For over 25 years Elwy Yost hosted TVOntario programs such as Talking Film and Saturday Night At The Movies. Those interviews with some of Hollywood's golden era legends and industry people are now available for streaming online. I hope Nitratevillians in the US are not restricted due to rights restrictions.

Here is the article that appeared in The Globe And Mail:

This is GREAT news! Whenever I visited my inlaws in Ottawa during the 80's I would tape Yost's wraparounds of his tv film presentations. In the States, PBS aired a series of MOVIEMAKERS shows featuring Yost interviews. Not a critic, per se, but an exuberant fan who landed some great interviews.
