I already cry like a little bitch every time I watch E. T. (which I’m pretty sure stands for “Extra Tissues”). I feel no shame in admitting that. Now, thanks to this recently-surfaced clip of Henry Thomas’s screen test for the role of Elliott,...

Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a classic ghost story that goes hand-in-hand with Halloween, and there have been hundreds of different adaptations over the years. I’ve already included Disney’s animated version from 1949 on this...
