    Herbert Lom, the fabulous co-star in the Pink Panther motion picture-series, has died. He played the long-suffering Police Chief Charles Dreyfus in seven movies, beginning in 1964 with A Shot in the Dark.

HERBERT LOM             PETER SELLERS  

   As a young adult, Lom became a serious dramatic actor.  He escaped to England in January, 1939 because of an impending Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia. His first role was in 1942 in The Young Mr. Pitt. He worked for the next six decades.

   Lom’s early movie career included British faire, and a couple of stints at Hammer Studios. Notable parts were assigned in The Seventh Veil, Night and the City, Whispering Smith Hits London, War and Peace, and The Ladykillers. When Hollywood finally beckoned, Lom  already settled into playing richly villainous character roles. Lom appeared in Fire Down Below (starring Robert Mitchum, Rita Hayworth, and Jack Lemmon), Mysterious Island, El Cid, and Spartacus. Herbert worked opposite Christopher Lee as vampire hunter Van Helsing in Count Dracula.

   Herbert Lom starred as the King of Siam in the original London production of the Rodgers and Hammerstein’s musical The King and I. His singing voice is heard on the cast recording.

   He spent his last years crediting the late Peter Sellers for prolonging his career. The Dreyfus character was so durable, Herbert continued after the troubled English actor’s death in 1980. Herbert’s final  appearance was in the seventh Pink Panther film in 1993.

   Herbert Lom died peacefully in his sleep, with his legacy firmly in tact. He was 95.

   On the eve of its nationwide release on November 9th, Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln will close the LA: The AFI Film Fest. Starring Daniel Day Lewis as our 16th President, this will give the festival audience a jump on the Oscar season.  For the 4th consecutive year, AFI FEST will continue to screen its program to audiences for FREE. And, no other major film festival has landed this likely cinematic classic.

   The motion picture, adapted by Tony Kushner from Doris Kearns Goodwin’s bestseller Team of Rivals, co-stars Sally Field, Tommy Lee Jones, David Strathairn, John Hawkes, Jackie Earle Haley, Hal Holbrook, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, James Spader and Jared Harris. This is the 26th Spielberg film scored by John Williams. DreamWorks is marketing and promoting this historic drama; an old-fashioned Hollywood biopic targeted for adults and Academy voters.

   The trailer was released to the press this week, and it has made the rounds among news circles. A real Hollywood-and-Vine moment, historical biopics have a longstanding legacy in cinema, making this year’s anticipated release of Lincoln the must-see movie of the year!

   Spielberg received a AFI Life Achievement Award in 1995. Five of his flicks rate among the greatest films of all time on AFI’s 100 Years… 100 Movies list: Schindler’s List, Jaws, E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Saving Private Ryan. Last year, the director completed a one-hour special at the AFI Conservatory with Williams exploring their four-decade relationship.This candid conversation aired on Turner Classic Movies. Spielberg and co-producer Kathleen Kennedy serve on the American Film Institute’s Board of Trustees.

   I’m thrilled Forgotten Hollywood Forgotten History proudly rests in the prestigious shelves of the Louis B. Mayer Library of the American Film Institute!

   Andy Williams was a classic vocalist of Standards for seven decades. He was also a likeable personality on television, while having a tumultuous personal life.

   Andy was part of a sibling quartet called The Williams Brothers in the 1940s. They appeared in films, and songs that were part of a movie score. Most notably, they backed Bing Crosby on Swinging on a Star, which won an Oscar for Best Song in 1944. The tune was featured in the Best Picture of the Year, Going My Way.

   After he went solo in 1953, Andy was compared to Standards luminaries,  Perry Como and Frank Sinatra. Though he had a popular singing career, he’s best known for adapting movie music to his songbook. Notable examples include Moon River, Days of Wine and Roses, Love is a Many-Splendored Thing, Charade, Three Coins in a Fountain, Exodus, Born Free, and More (from Mondo Cane).

   Andy Williams often added Broadway showtunes from Rodgers and Hammerstein to his live performances. He also showed his affection for cinema by crooning his versions of As Time Goes By, A Summer Place, The Second Time Around, Tonight, Maria, Never on Sunday, The Sweetheart Tree (from The Great Race), Where Do I Begin (theme from Love Story), and It Might as Well Be Spring.

   For a decade, Andy was a mainstay on television. He had a two year stint on Steve Allen’s Tonight Show. Over the years, The Andy Williams Show won three primetime Emmys. Regulars included the Osmond Brothers and Tony Orlando. After he left his television program, he hosted a number of Christmas specials.  ANDY WILLIAMS –>

   Andy Williams married a former dancer for the Folies Bergère. Claudine Longet was a popular guest on his television show. However, after their public divorce in 1975, Longet was charged with fatally shooting her boyfriend, alpine ski racer Spider Sabich, in Aspen. Andy played a role in the subsequent events, escorting his ex-wife to the courtroom, testifying to her character at the trial, and providing legal assistance.

   On a lighter note, his 1967 recording of Music to Watch Girls By was recently used by Diet Pepsi in a popular commercial in the United Kingdom. The singer hosted an annual PGA golf tournament in San Diego at Torrey Pines, beginning in 1968. Then known as the Andy Williams Open, the tourney continues as the Farmers Insurance Open, usually played in February.

   In 1992, he opened the Moon River Theater in Branson, Missouri. On stage, Williams was often joined by Glen Campbell, Ann-Margret, Petula Clark, Pat Boone, The Osmond Family (of course), Phyllis Diller, Robert Goulet, Charo, Rich Little, David Copperfield, Pat Benatar, Shari Lewis, and Broadway on Ice skaters Nancy Kerrigan, Tara Lipinski, and Rudy Galindo. Every November and December, he presented his annual Andy Williams Christmas Show. He wrote his memoirs in 2009, fittingly entitled, Moon River and Me.

   Andy Williams, the artist of timeless tunes as It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year and Can’t Get Used to Losing You, was 84. Goodbye, my huckleberry friend…

   On October 7th, Made in Hollywood: Photographs from the John Kobal Foundation travels to the Toledo Museum of Art, showcasing more than 90 prints by the most important photographers working in Hollywood from 1920–1960. The iconic presentation celebrates the finest portraits and still photography lent from the London-based archive of late author and collector John Kobal. The program highlights the importance of photography through classic images of idols such as Marlene Dietrich, Jean Harlow, Humphrey Bogart, Marilyn Monroe, and Cary Grant.

   Master photographers George Hurrell, Clarence Sinclair Bull and Ruth Harriet Louise shot these leading stars through their iconic imagery, utilizing dramatic lighting, unique camera angles, and deft retouching. They captured the magic Hollywood symbolized by immortalizing the actors, the scenes, and the sets that the movie studios created.

   The traveling exhibition was organized in 2008 by the Santa Barbara Museum of Art. Also shown at the National Portrait Gallery in London (they garnered a record-setting amount of visitors), Made in Hollywood makes its final stop in Toldedo through January 2013.

   Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for seniors and students. On Halloween, visit the museum dressed as one of the icons from the Made in Hollywood exhibition, and admission is FREE! Walk the red carpet, wave to the paparazzi and rub elbows with other celebrities.

   The exhibit is supported in part by a grant program provided by the Ohio Arts Council, and funded by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts. A companion book Glamour of the Gods features more than 200 images drawn from the Kobal archive, and is available in the Museum Store.

   While in Ohio, check out this one-of-a-kind visual attraction at the Toledo Museum of Art if you’re searching for Hollywood’s Golden Age.

   Please join the American Cinematheque in honoring the legacy of the Egyptian Theatre, home of the first Hollywood movie premiere.

   The Egyptian Theatre along Hollywood Boulevard has been debuting cinema on the big screen since 1922, when films were silent, and Howard C. Carter was hot on the trail of King Tut’s tomb in Egypt. Developer Charles E. Toberman tapped theater owner Sid Gauman to open a grand movie palace on Prospect Avenue (now Hollywood Boulevard) in a part of the city not yet particularly known for night life. The theater opened to great fanfare on October 18, 1922 with silent film royalty in attendance, including Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, and Charlie Chaplin – and the rest is history.

   Enjoy a memorable evening of 1922 style entertainment featuring silent short films (including some Egyptian themed novelty two-reelers), vaudeville acts, a Hollywood Screen Test booth, 1920s libations, a buffet fit for King Tut, gaming in their speakeasy gambling den, dancing, tours of the Egyptian’s private spaces, and more exotic entertainment than anyone can fathom!

   It’s suggested patrons arrive in costume to complete the evening’s festivities. The Egyptian Theatre’s 90th Anniversary Masquerade Ball is on Saturday, October 20th at 6:30p. Here’s a link to purchase tickets:

   According to the LA Press Club press release:

   Once again, Danforth Distribution has provided outstanding news! Latest monthly statements confirm Son of Forgotten Hollywood Forgotten History has sold over 400 copies. My work is reaching library branches and literary stores, such as Barnes & Noble, giving me a sustained nationwide presence.

   Actually, it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Over the last three months, copies were purchased by the Southern California Karaoke community; and through a series of book-signing events. These autograph parties were primarily luncheons held by neighborhood Rotary Clubs. The Chapters I recently visited included stops in Buena Park, Fullerton, Santa Fe Springs, Huntington Beach, Westwood, Santa Ana, and City of Commerce.

   I also like to thank my partners at the Cypress Chamber of Commerce,  the Buena Park Lions Club, and the Long Beach Chapter of the California Writer’s Association. My annual visit at Cinecon 48 additionally elicited a large buy from the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum, located in Fillmore.

   Next up – 500 for Son of Forgotten Hollywood Forgotten History…
