Interesting:

1. My publicity client, Art Lund, had a major role in THE MOLLY MAGUIRES.  I visited him on the set several times.

2. My friend and client, Dan O'Herlihy, was one of the stars of INVASION U.S.A.

And BK played the Dan O'Herlihy role of Grig in the 2006 NYMF reading of Skip's and my musical THE LAST STARFIGHTER!  (BK also played Otis as well as Grig.)

I got another nice plug; this one in Henry's Western Round-Up blog:

http://henryswesternroundup.blogspot.com/

Thanks. I read the review and interview link about Cheyenne Warrier as well which was interesting. (I hope your being a screenwriter isn't another hoax like yesterday when DR Jrand61 fooled me into thinking he was a '30s western star and about 100 years old).

Monday morning greetings!  I slept much better last night and have eased into the morning.  Richard is downstairs bonding with our new laundry appliances and soon I'll take a much needed trip to the grocery store.

Something that I worked on a little bit yesterday, about the post office slowing down service but still having enough personnel to come up with ideas like Edith Piaf stamps.  (I know, I know, when people buy collector stamps and keep them rather than using them, it's almost all profit for the Postal Service but just for fun...)

EDITH PIAF "FOREVER STAMP" DANCE - a parody from Fred Landau and Jan Horvath

DR FJL - as someone who loves both Edith Piaf and special edition stamps (to use, not to save), I quite enjoyed this parody!

I am really a screenwriter...and JRand is really a '30s western star about 100 years old.

Sorry, guys, I couldn't resist.

One thing that amazes me about this business:

Dan O'Herlihy played major roles in some classic films: ODD MAN OUT, Orson Welles' MACBETH, FAIL SAFE, etc.

But the one that people seem to remember him most for is THE LAST STARFIGHTER, in which he wore a lizard head.

BK did the roles of Grig and Otis in a series of readings at NYMF.

But in the productions, there were costumes.

http://www.kritzerland.com/starfighter_pix.htm

The costumes when they were supposed to look lizard-like just covered the head and not the face, though (example is at 3rd from the bottom at the above link, which BK has been nice enough to let us have on the Kritzerland site for the cast album)

Thanks, Jrand.      Those costumes were by Shura Pollatsek and sets by Todd Ivins, designers who had a terrific sense of the material, as did the lighting designer Mike Abrams.  (Can't find photos of the designs at St. Clements, which were likewise witty and fun.)

Someone on All That Chat referred to Fort lauderdale as "Fort La-dee-da" which is clever, but is it accurate as a description or just clever wordplay, I wonder aloud.

I associate "La-de-dah" with the character of Annie Hall. And as far as I know, Presbyterians don't do Florida.

Disc 3 notes finished, and now I need to look over what my executive producer has done to the Disc 1 & 2 notes. I know he's cut me from 18 pages to 14. I hope I like what he's done.

Tonight at midnight EST on TCM is Miss Joan Fontaine in BORN TO BE BAD.   This is one of the best "bad woman" movies ever......Joan is so B A D she gives BAD a new dimension.....

If you have never seen it, I highly recommend it.  Made in 1950, the year I was born - with some of the other Class of 1968 HHW'ers!

Featuring Joan (Bland) Leslie, Zachary Scott, and Robert Ryan......

Here are the first two Kritzerland releases of 2012.  I really feel there's no need to announce early here anymore, since all of three to four people are the only ones buying this stuff - so, it's easier to just order directly from the site.


Kritzerland presents its first two new limited edition soundtracks for 2012:

THE MOLLY MAGUIRES
Music Composed and Conducted by Henry Mancini

and

INVASION USA/TORMENTED
Music Composed and Conducted by Albert Glasser






CDs have been ordered!
