BK: Speaking of The Hollywood Bowl, TCM played a golden oldie last week titled MOONLIGHT MURDER (1936). It starred Chester Morris, Madge Evans, and Leo Carrillo and took place entirely at the Hollywood Bowl. It was a fun little murder mystery!

I was also sad to hear about Dick Jones. I really liked him in the tv series BUFFALO BILL JR.

However, I spent 3 days with him at a western  convention in Memphis and he was anything but pleasent. I don't know if he was just in poor health at the time or what, but he was very unfriendly.

He told me that he hated coming to these things, but his wife loved it, so he went. He was quite nice to the fans, but wanted nothing to do with the other celebrity guests. That was the year I attended so that I could help out Kenny Miller and Laurie Mitchell. We tried to include him at lunches and dinners, but he would leave in a huff and sit as far away from everyone as he could. It was sad.

I've run my errand. Got into a fight with a young lady - 20-30 in age I guess - on the uptown 104 bus; she got on the bus one stop before mine, and rather than taking a seat, she stood in the back door well. Just stood there, God knows why. I was sitting in the back of these lousy new buses so I had to come down several steps, a painful process, to get out the door, and I waited on the steps while an older woman maneuvered her luggage around this isiot woman blocking both the door and my getting off the steps. As I exited, I made a comment like, "I don't know why you're blocking the door when you're not getting off," and she told me to go fuck myself. I responded with "eat shit, bitch" - very mature, I admit - and left the bus. Not one of my finer moments, but what an ass she was.

I was probably the first producer in history not to watch singers.  I describe it in detail in Album Produced By. 


Thanks for answering!  I remember it being discussed in the Company cast album documentary, but I did not remember reading your account of it in your book.  Makes a lot of sense.

Indeed. Lack of regard for anyone else in this type of public setting galls me more than just about anything.

Today would have been my father's 96th birthday. He passed away when I was a teen. He was an amateur photographer. A few years ago on his birthday I honored him by buying a good camera. I think he would have loved digital cameras.

Today in his honor Wae-Ling and I headed north to photograph butterflies and things. She became ill when we got to Payson, so we came home. I imagine she will be sleeping most of the afternoon.

DR JohnG, I was wrong. I do have a couple of items still up on Ebay. Nothing exciting, unless a shirtless publicity photo of Edson Stroll strikes you fancy.

Bid often and bid high, I always say.

I did just mail off two complete lobby card sets to 12 TO THE MOON (1960) and VIKING WOMEN AND THE SEA SERPENT, both heading to Alabama as I type this.

Plus a Mark Forest as Goliath lobby card is winging its way to another part of the country.

It was Zach Efron in Orson and Me, not Braff. And Efron was enjoyable in that, which surprised me.

So nice to see the Kritzerland video's, BK. We always see the run-throughs, but we only ever hear the actual performances. Thanks for posting them.

Back from some lunch - turkey sandwich and a cup of soup.  I did manage to get one more hour of sleep which was, of course, not enough.

Thursday afternoon greetings!  We were expecting the electricians back this morning but when they weren't here by lunchtime I decided to go shopping for shoes for DN Lauren's wedding.  Found them at my first stop along with a cute matching purse.  Went from there to Mom's, picked up her shopping list and credit card, did her grocery shopping, and delivered the results.  Home cooling off before Richard and I go out to dinner and do some grocery shopping of our own.
