  • Jane Russell
    The Original Bombshell: A Tribute to Jane Russell By Katie Sirles SPECIAL FOR FILMS FOR TWO© My Path and My Detours Jane Russell with a copy of her memoir (1995) Photo Credit: Schnatmeyer/picture-alliance/dpa/NewsCom Jane Russell began making waves in the film industry the moment she entered it. She signed a seven-year contract with Howard Hughes who immediately wanted to show off his newest gem. He did so in a way that would go down in cinematic history. By showcasing the buxom figure of this 5-foot 7-inch woman, he lit a fire under Hollywood censorship. His first film starring Jane Russell, The Outlaw, was completed in 1941 but did not show to the public until 1943. Howard Hughes had Jane in revealing outfits throughout the film and the Hollywood censors would only okay a limited release in 1943. The film finally had a general release in 1946. Between making The Outlaw and its general release, Russell made a name for herself in Hollywood. Born Ernestine Jane Geraldine Russell in Bemidji, Minnesota, Russell died in Santa Maria, California due to respiratory failure. Russell married three times. Her first husband was Bob Waterfield. The two adopted three children together, but divorced in 1968. Her second husband was Roger Barrett. They met in Chicago, Illinois when they worked together in a stage show called Here Today. They married shortly after meeting in 1968. Barrett died of a heart attack later that year. Russell was quoted as saying “Everybody tells me to 'stay busy.' He was only 47 and strong as an ox.

    Omnibus <^£ectuze Series Presents Mitzi Gaynor Tuesday, Oct. 10, 2000 7:30 p.m. IPFW Walb Student Union Ballroom c£Pvofvam Welcome Michael A. Wartell IPFW Chancellor Introduction Larry L. Life Chair, IPFW Department of Theatre Lecture: 'An Evening with Mitzi Gaynor" Mitzi Gaynor Media sponsors: WBNI 89.1 and NewsChannel 15. The Omnibus Lecture Series is funded by a grant from the English, Bonier, Mitchell Foundation. This Omnibus lecture is cosponsored by the IPFW Department of Theatre, Russell Sunday, and Walter McComb. Thanks to InterVarsity for ushering tonight. Mitzi Gaynor itzi Gaynor, star of stage and screen, is best knownsfor her role as Ensign Nellie llilbpfepin the Rodgeb'and Hamrrierstein musical South Pacific. To describe Mitzi Gaynor is to form a picture of the complete entertainer, which she has been since starting her career at the age of 12 in the corps de ballet of the Los Angeles Civic Light Opera. Her vibrant personality and singing, dancing, and acting talents have since found her as a star of motion pictures, television, the theatrical stage, Las Vegas, and concerts. She was recognized by her peers when the theatrical union of entertainers voted her "Singing and Dancing Star of the Year," presented on national video by George Burns. Gaynor was virtually born into the theatre; her mother was a dancer, her father a professional musician. When the family moved from her native Chicago, she was discovered by legendary Los Angeles theatrical producer Edwin Lester, and made her debut as a dancer in Song without Words for the Los Angeles Civic Light Opera.

  • MEMORY of the WORLD REGISTER the Wizard of Oz
    MEMORY OF THE WORLD REGISTER The Wizard of Oz (Victor Fleming 1939), produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer REF N° 2006-10 PART A – ESSENTIAL INFORMATION 1 SUMMARY In 1939, as the world fell into the chaos of war, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer released a film that espoused kindness, charity, friendship, courage, fortitude, love and generosity. It was dedicated to the “young, and the young in heart” and today it remains one of the most beloved works of cinema, embraced by audiences of all ages throughout the world. It is one of the most widely seen and influential films in all of cinema history. The Wizard of Oz (1939) has become a true cinema classic, one that resonates with hope and love every time Dorothy Gale (the inimitable Judy Garland in her signature screen performance) wistfully sings “Over the Rainbow” as she yearns for a place where “troubles melt like lemon drops” and the sky is always blue. George Eastman House takes pride in nominating The Wizard of Oz for inclusion in the Memory of the World Register because as custodian of the original Technicolor 3-strip nitrate negatives and the black and white sequences preservation negatives and soundtrack, the Museum has conserved these precious artefacts, thus ensuring the survival of this film for future generations. Working in partnership with the current legal owner, Warner Bros., the Museum has made it possible for this beloved film classic to continue to enchant and delight audiences. The original YCM negatives have been conserved at the Museum since 1975, and Warner Bros. recently completed our holdings of the film by assigning the best surviving preservation elements of the opening and closing black and white sequences and the soundtrack to our care.

  • Fortunate Dreams
    FORTUNATE DREAMS BY CURTIS LOFGREN WGAw # 1623265 2621 Columbia Avenue Richmond CA 94804 510-526-3452 [email protected] FADE IN INT. DREAM INN HOTEL-JUNE 27-1975 Oscar-winning actor JACK LEMMON and his wife, actress FELICIA FARR, have arrived at their hotel, the best this small town has to offer. Famed actor RAY BOLGER’S impromptu song and dance routine has just ended, and the echo of APPLAUSE is still ruminating through the entire establishment. Lemmon is tired and cranky. He rings the bell in the deserted lobby while his wife rubs his shoulders. JACK LEMMON (moaning) Oh, right there. FELICIA Please let me drive home after the shoot, alright? Let’s stop at that cute Scandinavian town, what’s its name? Soulbang? She stops rubbing his shoulders and rings the bell again. Jack throws up his hands and gives her a classic JACK LEMMON rant. A screenplay of the 1960 English classic, THE ENTERTAINER, adjusted for NBC, is sitting on the ledge of the desk. Jack is running his lines, but stops in mid-sentence. JACK LEMMON A seven day shooting schedule? I must have been crazy. And the money? I might as well donate it. Felicia looks into her tiny mirror and adjusts her make-up. FELICIA You did. Remember, your wife’s Rodeo Drive shopping fund? Felicia nibbles at his ear. JACK LEMMON Money isn’t everything. Laurence Olivier may be a master thespian in England, but there’s another mule kicking in his stall here in America. FELICIA What does that mean? She adds a little lipstick here, a little powder there.
