Many actors have launched their careers in horror movies. But two of our most established and acclaimed stars, John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush (who have an Oscar, three Tonys, seven Emmys and four Golden Globes between them), are now headlining a low-budget horror film: "The Rule of Jenny Pen," in which a psychopath terrorizes his fellow nursing home residents with a sinister doll puppet. Correspondent Tracy Smith talks with them about playing once-in-a-lifetime characters; aging into their roles; and when awards season "doesn't make sense."
Julien's Auctions, based in Los Angeles, has been hugely successful in the market of celebrity memorabilia – everything from Marilyn Monroe's jeans to Michael Jackson's glove. Correspondent Lee Cowan takes a tour of the auctioneer's 50,000-square-foot warehouse filled with the rare and the ridiculous, and talks with a collector for whom finding their holy grails of fandom can include an actual Holy Grail.
In this extended interview, Tom Rothman, the chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures Entertainment's Motion Picture Group, talks with Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz about how movies can regain their cultural imperative; the hazards of IP; the effects of social media and algorithms on selling films; and what makes for a "movie experience."
"Sunday Morning" looks back at historical events on this date.
In this extended interview, writer-director Nancy Meyers (whose credits include "Something's Gotta Give," "It's Complicated," and "The Holiday") talks with Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz about the business of Hollywood today; the dearth of "grownup movies" in the marketplace, as well as the loss of classic movie stars; and how the habits of watching movies – including rom-coms – has changed.
In this extended interview, Ted Sarandos, the co-CEO of Netflix, the world's largest streaming service, talks with Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz about the vibrancy of filmmaking today; the options movie viewers have today, in theaters or at home; and what movies might not be made today.
Moviewatching in the 21st century is decidedly different than in Hollywood's Golden Era – and so is moviemaking. But did the rise of streaming services, and the ability to watch movies on mobile phones, change what we expect movies to be? Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz talks with director Nancy Myers; Ted Sarandos, the co-CEO of Netflix; Tom Rothman, Chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures; and New Yorker writer Michael Schulman, about whether the old saying "They don't make 'em like they used to" applies when it comes to Hollywood's "Dream Factory" today.
The death of Academy Award-winning actor Gene Hackman, at the age of 95, was announced on February 27, 2025. In this "Sunday Morning" profile from March 19, 2000, correspondent Martha Teichner visited the star of "The French Connection," "Superman" and "Unforgiven" at his home outside Santa Fe, N.M., where he talked about the new chapter he was pursuing – as the co-writer (with Daniel Lenihan) of an adventure novel, "Wake of the Perdido Star."
Arline Geronimus' research indicates societal pressures like institutional racism, classism, financial stressors or the environment can impact not just the length of life, but also the quality of life for marginalized communities suffering chronic diseases. She talks with correspondent Nancy Giles about her book, "Weathering: The Extraordinary Stress of Ordinary Life in an Unjust Society."
