Today’s Scan Sunday features some wonderful contributions by Jarka, who has scanned Czech and Slovakian magazines that range from 1992 to 2015. Thank you very much. Also added are two recent scans, Film TV from Italy, with many thanks to Simona, and Entertainment Weekly’s April 22 issue, with many thanks to Claudia. Enjoy the new scans.
This week’s Scan Sunday features a bunch of great cover stories from Germany and one from Austria. Included is a 1986 of Quick (that’s how fast you forget their gossiping about a possible Streep/Nicholson affair for the release of “Heartburn”) and a lenghty Stern cover story on “The House of the Spirits and the return of romantic movies, also covering Sleepless in Seattle and The Piano. The fourth magazine, another beautiful cover, has been replaced with higher resolution scans. Many thanks to Fred and Alvaro for their contributions. To read all articles, click any of the previews below.
A whopping ten magazine coverages have been added for this week’s Scan Sunday. All articles cover “Out of Africa” and include reports from the set, and interviews with Meryl Streep and Robert Redford. Eight cover stories from the United States, Canada, Belgium and France are featured with some great new pictures (and have a look at France’s Confidence cover, that’s how Photoshop looked in 1986). Many thanks to Fred and Alvaro for their contributions. To launch all latest scans, click any of the previews below. And if you don’t know what to watch over this long Easter weekend, give “Out of Africa” a go.
A nice batch of new production stills have been added, ranging from “The Deer Hunter” to “Postcards from the Edge”. Basically every movie in between has been updated with new on-set pictures and promotionals. To view all last added pictures, simply browse the photo gallery or click any of the previews below.
In this week’s Scan Sunday we circle around the Netherlands, Belgium and France and then wide away to the United States with four great cover stories. Articles range from 1979 to 1997 and give a great spotlight on Meryl’s television work in “Holocaust” and “First Do No Harm”. There are also two articles from 1983 on her recent Oscar win for “Sophie’s Choice”. Many thanks to Fred and Alvaro for their contributions. If you’d like to have scans from a specific country being featured next week, just drop a line in the comments section.
This week’s Scan Sunday brings four great cover story from European magazines – Italy’s Superflash from 1988, France’s Voici from 1989, Germany’s Frau im Spiegel from 1994 (a special report on the story behind Out of Africa, featuring many rare pictures of Karen Blixen and Denys Fynch Hatton) and Belgium’s Teleknack. Many thanks to Fred and Alvaro for their contributions. Click any of the previews below to launch the new scans and enjoy reading.
In case you have ever wondered, like me, if Simply Streep has found every magazine that has ever run an article on Meryl Streep, you’re wrong. Some time last year a fan from Canada, Fred Meandro, contacted me, offering a large collection of covers and articles (those kinds of emails you just wish to happen). With the help of my friend and fellow contributor Alvaro, we’ve been able to get hold of a massive collection of very rare articles and cover stories which has been sorted and digitized. This collection is too precious to just put it out in one update, so why not turn it into a new feature? Every Sunday from now on, a couple of those new magazine scans will be posted here for your reading pleasure. Let’s start with four magazines from the United States, Italy, Germany and Belgium. Many thanks to Alvaro for his wonderful support on these new finds.
Six promotional featurettes for Meryl’s films, including Postcards from the Edge, The River Wild, Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, Prime, Doubt and Suffragette have been added to the video archive (the Suffragette video has been added before but went without mention). The former five are not full featurettes but rather bits from an entertainment program, still a great find and some wonderful on-set footage and old interviews. Click any of the previews below.
Today brings a massive update of magazine scans in the photo gallery, ranging from 1979 to 2015 and covering pretty much everything from the press coverage on “Kramer vs. Kramer” to the latest articles on “Suffragette”. About 50 magazines have been added with a good 150 pages. Many thanks to my friend Alvaro for finding all these and sending them my way. Very appreciated! For a complete list of all updated albums, have a look below the previews. Enjoy.
In the photo gallery, four films have been updated from the previous DVD resolution to wonderful high definition Blu-Ray screencaptures. Updates include “The House of the Spirits”, “The Bridges of Madison County”, “The Hours” and “Dark Matter”. Enjoy.
