About Mel Priddle
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
Films have been my great love since the age of four when I saw my first. I am particularly knowledgeable on the films of John Wayne, Frank Sinatra (and his music) and Elvis Presley (and his music), but I will try to answer any question relating to movies from 1900 to the present day.

Experience
I am an ex-cinema manager and film publicist.
