Classic Chops enthusiastically welcomes any essay or post you’ve composed on a film classic—and even though I originally set the criterion at films released in 1965 and before, I have “cheated” a little and included films after that date that I don’t think too many people would dispute are “classics.” Simply send your submissions to classicchops@gmail.com by July 19 at 6:00pm EST…and any questions, comments, suggestions and beer-battered onion rings should be addressed to that same e-mail address as well.

This July 27, Classic Chops will feature submissions of reviews on films that contain memorable dream sequences. There’s no shortage of movies to write about: The Conversation, Dead of Night, The Kid, Rosemary's Baby—just a few ideas to jog your cinematic memories. If you’ve written something in the past, let me hear from you—just send an e-mail to the usual address but be sure you put “Classic Chops: Dreamscape Edition” in the header so I can tell it apart from the usual submissions. The deadline for all submissions will be July 26 at 6:00pm EST.

As always…until next time…see you at the movies!
