James Garner, The Rockford Files
April 2, 2026 Jesse Singer

James Garner was one of the biggest stars of the 60s and 70s. If he’s not as well known today, maybe it’s because of his life behind the scenes.

Burt Lancaster Facts
April 2, 2026 Miles Brucker

Burt Lancaster was an Old Hollywood star whose rugged good looks made him an icon—but it was his secretive nature that made him a target.

Burt Lancaster caused a stir in Hollywood when he famously rolled around in the surf with Deborah Kerr in From Here to Eternity. His physique was impeccably sculpted, reminiscent of contemporary underwear models, a rarity for men in the conservative atmosphere of the 1950s.

Famous Movie Quotes People Always Get Wrong

Some movie lines are so iconic they’ve basically taken on a life of their own—unfortunately, that life often includes being completely misquoted. Somewhere between repeat viewings, pop culture references, and people confidently repeating things at parties, the original lines get twisted into something…close-ish.
