Jimmy Stewart Museum Struggling To Survive…HELP!

***The Jimmy Stewart Museum is in trouble and help is desperately needed for it to remain open!***

A sad sign of the times, I’m afraid 😦

However, when everyone sits down to watch, “It’s A Wonderful Life” for the 1000th time this Christmas, think about the hours of joy and entertainment that Jimmy Stewart has given YOU over the years…an iconic American hero, he can’t be forgotten and lost to future generations. The modest museum is operated in his home town of Indiana, PA.

More info about The Jimmy Stewart Museum is located HERE

Please, think of something that YOU can do to help The Jimmy Stewart Museum out of this terrible bind…

Though the website (http://www.jimmy.org/) is currently inactive , NOT a good sign in itself, I’ve provided their mailing address and telephone number below:

***NEWSFLASH***NEWSFLASH***NEWSFLASH***

I have just been advised by my publisher that the new soft cover version ($38 RRP) of Gene Tierney: A Biography has been fast-tracked and will be available NEXT WEEK…just in time for Christmas! The book is currently being printed and there IS a new cover design, which is VERY exciting.

I will be sure to unveil the new cover ASAP!

For now, pre-orders are being taken at the MCFARLAND website and AMAZON too. Let’s hope this soft cover version is just as successful as its hard cover counterpart 🙂

Thanks to everyone who owns one of my books…I’m truly honored that my work is included on your book shelf!

Don’t Mess With Perfection…Robert Zemeckis Knows It…

 

Robert Zemeckis Will NOT Direct Oz Remake

 

And, despite being a great visionary, Zemeckis obviously realized that those are some awfully big ruby slippers to fill!

 

 

That said, when will Warner Bros. realize the same?

I get the horrible feeling that the studio WILL continue to look for a director with an ego big enough to think a remake can improve, or even top, the original.

Career suicide? Yep!

Box office bomb? Yep!

We’re not talking about an adaptation of an “Oz” story here, we’re talking about an exact page for page remake of the original 1939 script! It should be illegal!!!

Tom Hanks recently turned down the lead in a “Harvey” remake, refusing to even look at the script because of the realization that no one, not even him, could fill Jimmy Stewart’s shoes. It’s a moral issue and I was glad to see that Hanks had the foresight and RESPECT to leave well enough alone. I was, however, extremely disappointed to learn that Steven Spielberg was on board as director! Spielberg?! Yep, Steven Spielberg!

What was HE thinking?

 

Don’t mess with perfection!
