1) GEORGE REEVES ON BIOGRAPHY
For years, many of you have written to suggest that George Reeves
would be a
good subject for A&E's Biography series. Well, I have
some good news. A
Reeves Biography is currently in production and should
be ready for airing
within a few months! I'm in almost daily contact with the field
producer and
have supplied several photographs and a lot of imformation. As
the air date
approaches, I'll let you know so that you can set your VCR's
for what I hope
will be an outstanding episode of the series. Finally, a story
about George
Reeves that will do more than focus on the night he died.
2) STRAWBERRY BLONDE TO AIR ON TCM
Alan Kaminsky recently notified me that Strawberry Blonde,
featuring
George Reeves, will air on the Turner Classic Movie channel on
December 31at
12:30 AM. Please note, this is early Friday morning (NOT Friday
night/Saturday morning).
USA, 1941, (CC), BW
Alan Hale, George Tobias, George Reeves
A turn-of-the-century gold digger is loved by a decent young
dentist and a
brash contractor.
3) SUPERMAN NOW SHOWING IN AUSTRALIA
For all you readers from Australia, or for anyone planning to
visit there
soon, John Tanti sent this note:
Hi Jim,
My name is john from Melbourne, Australia. I always recive
your many e-mail
from you and with thanks. I am sending you this e-mail to tell
you that we
now have the great George Reeves (Superman) on the Optus Channel.
It's a
pay channel, and the series is seen every Sunday afternoon. I
now have
fifteen tapes of Superman. Jim, i am 51 years old and
i still get a great
buz when i watch George Reeves as Superman. Many thanks and keep
up the
great work you're doing.
Yours,
John
4) CLAYTON MOORE DIES AT AGE 85
It is with great sadness that I pass along the news of Clayton
Moore's death
from a heart attack on December 28. It's ironic, isn't it? Clayton
Moore was
the last of the great cowboy stars of the 50s. He was, in reality
... the
Lone Ranger. I know two readers of TAC, Jr. who have web sites
devoted to
Clayton Moore.
