Los Angeles -- If there is an emblematic visual disparity between rich and poor certainly Hollywood would take the honored seating at the banquet table for the rich and famous. November is television's rating sweep ( February, May and July) the other periods where the viewing data from the individual weeks is aggregated and program scheduling and advertising decisions are made according to the data.
Even though the focus is on nothing else but yourself in this town of me, me, me days like today give us all an opportunity to refocus and see the value of what were doing not in what we accomplished but what we gave back. So here are some celeb's in action this Thanksgiving. Los Angeles -- We came across this vignette that reveals the motivations and unedited feelings of some of the most successful business icons in the last 30 years certainly the latter part of the 20th Century early 21st Century. Frankly if these people were not rich and famous we don't think most of us would take notice. But they are and what they say isn't beyond the advice a good parent would give to their children. It is in a way common sense with a billion dollar bank account backing them up or a household name or even both. But if necessity is the mother of invention then the common sense wisdom these remarkable individuals say can be possibly considered the progeny. Quite remarkable indeed and for our e zine whose focus is on entertainment...their contribution is priceless. ![]() Los Angeles -- We have been examining through video and print the mechanisms and steps that it takes to translate a story from script to screen. By examining the various above and below the line responsibilities we have gained valuable insight and knowledge into the intricacies involved in creating motion picture entertainment. Here is a documentary we came across that was made after the release of the Superman movie with the late Christopher Reeves before his equestrian accident that left him a paraplegic until his death. It is remarkable because this move really was at the cusp of the change over taking place in Hollywood where films of substance and character were being crowded out for the nascent special effects coming on line after the blockbuster trailblazing picture Star Wars seemingly overnight rewrote the production process in favor of the post-production sfx teams that would soon follow in creating nearly all the memorable movies in recent memory or for the past 20 years. Here is a young Christopher Reeves, right after his career making role as Superman, hosting the 60 minute documentary and the making of Superman circa 1978. |
