Post by: Ben on January 26, 2015, 01:48:14 AM: We have a new over the air channel called Decades. It's another retro television station that airs on sub-channels of CBS affiliates. They are "binging" during the "soft launch". They are playing every episode of every series they will be airing in the running order. So far we have had The Millionaire, The Mothers-in-Law, Family Affair, F-Troop, Get Smart (it's in the middle of Get Smart right now). The Phil Silvers Show begins on January 28th and then The Doris Day Show. This goes on through May with lots of other shows then the network has their full launch and begins running a normal schedule

Title: Re: JUDGMENT DAY AT THE FEDERAL
Post by: bk on January 26, 2015, 06:08:33 AM: Here's the blurb for the new CD:

Kritzerland is proud to present a new limited edition world premiere soundtrack release, two scores on two CDs for a one-CD price:

ETHAN
GEORGE GROSZ’S INTERREGNUM

Music Composed and Conducted by Paul Glass

Ethan is a mystery. It’s not only a lost film, it’s a film that most people have never heard of, let alone seen. The 1964 low-budget film, shot in Techniscope and color, stars Robert Sampson as a priest working in a little village in the Philippines. His faith is tested by a Muslim woman, he has a fall from grace, finds himself and his faith again, only to have a tragic end. It had a very brief release and disappeared completely, having only one release in the early days of VHS. It’s certainly not a great film, but it’s an interesting one that deals with interesting subjects and was especially bold for a 1964 film.

The one area in which Ethan soars is its score by composer Paul Glass. Glass composed his first film score in 1957. But his first mainstream film score for a major studio was in 1964 with the Paramount film Lady In a Cage, the same year as his score for Ethan. He had two distinct styles for his film scores – avant-garde (Lady In a Cage) and a more accessible harmonic style (Ethan, and subsequently, Bunny Lake is Missing in 1965). Ethan almost seems like a dry run for the Bunny Lake is Missing score, with which it definitely has things in common. Ethan is a beautiful score, with haunting themes that are developed with wonderful variety throughout its playing time.

As a companion piece, we also include Paul Glass’s score for the short film George Grosz’s Interregnum. Made in 1960, Interregnum was narrated by the legendary Lotte Lenya. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short. A portrait of Nazi brutality as told through the images of artist George Grosz, the film is powerful and memorable. Glass’s score for Interregnum falls firmly into his avant-garde style and fits perfectly with the imagery of the film.

Both scores are presented complete and in stereo from Mr. Glass’s personal tapes. We are thrilled to have two more Paul Glass scores on CD. Lady In a Cage and Overlord and Hustle are also available on Kritzerland.

Paul Glass had a completely unique musical voice in film music back then and hearing his work today, his musical voice remains completely unique.

Ethan/Interregnum is limited to 1000 copies only and the two-CD set is priced at $19.98, plus shipping. CDs will ship by the last week of February. However, on average we usually ship two to four weeks ahead of the official ship date. To place an order, see the cover, or hear audio samples, just visit www.kritzerland.com.

Post by: Jrand74 on January 26, 2015, 07:22:14 AM: Fun in FLORIDA for DR CHAS SMITH and DR VIXMOM & VIXDAD.

We did the Cape Canaveral history tour many years ago, and it was great!!! We would stop a various places and get out to see things. The bus driver would always say: "This is a brief stop NOT a camping spot." So once we he stayed outside talking to another bus driver, and we were all seated and waiting, when he got back in his seat, I said: "This is not a camping spot."

He was not amused.

Post by: Jrand74 on January 26, 2015, 07:24:23 AM: We were also the first ones to get in after a museum opened....there was a replica of the moon suit just inside the door. As we stopped to look at it, it started to move.....and scared us. There was a man inside who walked around.....pretty funny though.

I was also astounded at how SMALL the Mercury capsules were......not much bigger than a bathtub.

I was used to the spaceships in SCI FI movies that had hallways and lounge chairs and kitchens, etc. I can't imagine flying around the earth in one of them....scary.

Post by: Jrand74 on January 26, 2015, 07:28:34 AM: Oh....I especially wanted to get out and walk around on the runway that the space shuttles used when they came back to earth.....it was amazing to contemplate.

They go hundreds of thousands of miles in space and can guide the ship right back to a single spot in Florida.

I can't even find a spot in the WalMart parking lot.

Post by: elmore3003 on January 26, 2015, 12:28:27 PM: I got home from therapy, had some breakfast, and then needed a nap.

I would never in my wildest imagination consider The Phantom of the Opera, a novel I've loved since a kid, a supernatural book. Lot of gothic horror trappings, but, like Paul Gallico's Too Many Ghosts and the Bob Hope film The Ghost Breakers, there's not a real ghost in sight.

I would add to my list of books:
A Christmas Carol
Ghost Story
The Woman In Black
Something Wicked This Way Comes

And films:
The Woman In Black (BBC version, not the Radcliffe film)
The Blair Witch Project
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
The Canterville Ghost

Vixdad and I are enjoying sundaes at ghiradellis in downtown Disney

Yum! Funny though as when I think sundaes at Ghirardelli, I think of San Francisco.

I could do that in Chicago this weekend, but it's not exactly ice cream weather.

:o

It is always ice cream weather. I have stood in the freezing cold shivering just for a scoop of Baskin Robbins.

Have I mentioned here that I'm going to Chicago this coming weekend? It's the American Library Association Midwinter Conference, which I will attend, but I'm also looking forward to some solitude in a nice hotel. Fly up Friday and back Tuesday.

If Bryan was back in Chicago I would consider meeting you there, oh wait it is winter-never mind ;)

You and Keith could meet us in San Francisco when we're there for ALA in June...

Really. What are the dates? We will put them on the calendar. I wish we could say plan extra time and come up to us only we don't know if we will still be here. The house will likely go on the market on April 1st. Thing is, the chances of actually selling the house are slim. This house is great but one does need people to be out there shopping. Fortunately we don't have to move.

I think I can record my show up in my bedroom because I don't need to make a DVD of it (my DVD burner drawer won't open and now I can't record or even watch anything on that one :( ), but I need to make sure that it all works out.

But have no problem when they sing.

They really need someone during rehearsals with a clicker to use every time they use an ah, uhm, you know (Crutch words) it will cure them of doing it.

I am a member of Toastmasters International and that is used during our meetings. It has helped me and many others of my group to improve their public speaking.
