Rondo Hatton. The awards allow film fans across the globe to honor their

Also, Cinema Retro contributor Mark Mawston, who recently
brought CR readers a rare, exclusive interview with actor John Leyton, has been
singled out for a nomination in the category of Best Interview. This time, the
subject of his work is the life and career of noted writer, film, and film music
historian, Steve Vertlieb, who reflects on his interactions with a “Who’s Who”
of film legends from over the decades. The superb 12-page interview appeared in issue
#31 of the popular British horror magazine “We Belong Dead”. Mark is known professionally as "The Rock and
Roll Photographer To The Stars" (having photographed such music luminaries
at Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Elton John, Eric Clapton, Yoko Ono, and Brian Wilson).
