Former sixties starlet Gail Gerber was spotted at the gala 2010 Ippy Awards last night on the arms of a much younger man to accept her Silver Medal for Best Autobiography/Memoir of 2009. Our sources informed us that this fan boy is Matt Fletcher and yes boys he is single.
BOOK’EM DANO!
The only new TV series for the upcoming Fall season I am looking forward to is the re-boot of Hawaii Five-0 with Alex O’Loughlin as Steve Garrett, Scott Caan as Dano, and Lost’s Daniel Dae Kim as Det. Chin Ho. Click here to view the new exciting opening using a faster tempo electronica versison of the classic theme (I like it a lot) and to see the original as well for comparison.
Sixties icon Nancy Kwan guest starred in the first episode of the original series and here’s hoping she is asked to make a return appearance.
RAQUEL IN THE WEST
I have always been a Raquel Welch and spaghetti western fan so I think when one of her best movies is the revenge tale Hannie Caulder, which will finally be available on DVD in July. Though American produced and filmed, it has that offbeat Italian feel to it and Raquel is just awesome as a womann viciously raped and left for dead by three vile varmints Ernest Brognine, Strother Martin and Jack Elam. Raquel teams up with bounty hunter Robert Culp to track down and kill the men who did her wrong.
This along with El Condor starring Jim Brown, Lee Van Cleef and Marianna Hill are my two fave westerns from the early seventies.
RETURN TO THE SCREEN
Marlyn Mason (The Trouble with Girls, Makin’ It, and numerous TV appearances) is back in front of the camera again starring in the short film, The Bag, which she also wrote. The film is near completion, and has been entered in the Rhode Island Film Festival, August 10th. Pictured below is Marlyn, with co-star Richard Erdman.
