CAMELEON CATE
ONLINE MOVIES AND TELEVISION
A SENSE OF SCALE and ONLINE FREEFILM
i am pleased that, eventually, every movie, book and music file will be available for instant viewing, reading and listening........ This is from HULA, which makes available a small library with surprisingly good video quality and excellent sound.......now, if only TCM would extend its library to online access!

EMILE
This will be the decade of the teary-eyed men......emotional, sensitive types....the postponed legacy of James Dean......say goodbye to the hard-edged men of the 40's and 50's......maybe we should abandon "best actor" and "best actress" awards and go for "best individual actor"......the line between the sexes is vanishing.....perhaps, someday, we will be a unisex race that reproduces in labs according to dna blueprints stored in computers......will Emile change the face of Valentino like Rudolf changed the face of acting, years ago?

THERE'S FRED ASTAIRE AND THERE'S..........
ELEANOR POWELL! my mother always thought Ms. Powell was the greatest of Fred's partners......very subjective stuff....but this performance would lead me to believe that her assessment was right on!
a rare clip that shows the tricks behind the magic.........

LITTLE JOE
I met Joe in N.Y. when we were teenagers.....i had never seen anyone.....even Robert Taylor....in "Camille" of course........who was so drop dead georgeous.......he hung with the street people, junkies and drag queens.....
all, completely unfamiliar to me at that time.......he became an underground movie star, sorta......and acted opposite such diverse "stars" as Holly Woodlawn, Jane Forth and Sylvia Miles.......Udo Kier, the definitive "decadant" actor, Johnny Depp and Taylor Meade......
