Splendor in the Grass , Elia Kazan’s ode to teenage angst and adolescent obsession, turns 50 this Monday. The golden anniversary of William Inge’s torrid screenplay may not seem like a big deal to you, but if you haven’t seen Splendor in the Grass (which was a box office sensation in ’61), you’ve missed out on three important film moments: 1) the performance of Natalie Wood’s career; 2) the debut of a young buck named Warren Beatty; and 3) a level of teenage hysteria that is both extreme and extremely moving.

Sexual Liberation Classic to Be Remade with Naked 3D Orgy?

Writer, director and actor Paul Mazursky , the man who has over the years, given us peeks at the peeks of iconic actresses like Margot Kidder , Maria Conchita Alonso , and Jill Clayburgh has brought up the possibility of remaking one of his most famous films—as long as there can be a 3D orgy scene!
