The Honeymoon Killers (1970)
Loved Tony Lo Bianco in this film!
I loved this movie not only for how it was filmed in b/w but for this terrific cast. A young Tony Lo Bianco stole this movie from the rest of this excellent cast! Mr. Lo Bianco is the most memorable actor for my money and was perfectly casted. I would highly suggest viewing this film and I know you will enjoy it as we did here. I understand that there were a couple of big name directors fired early on in filming this movie mainly because the way they were using only master shots without close ups and or back up takes. I think this was Tony Lo Bianco's first film as I had only seen him acting on stage prior to this film. He always delivered a solid performance in the stage roles that I saw him in but this performance on film surely has to be the reason I started seeing him in more films after Honeymoon Killers. I'll never forget his role as "Sal Boca" in the great film "The French Connection" - if it were up to me he'd have won best supporting actor for that film. But here in Honeymoon Killers, he gets a chance to carry a film on his shoulders and carry it he does - in grand fashion of those great old actors of the B/W film days. I sincerely recommend this film to all film buffs or to anyone who likes a good story, a people picture, not a bunch of special effects, but a real story so well acted by all.
The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson: Episode dated 24 September 1981 (1981)
Ann Jillian debut on Tonight show was GREAT!
Johnny Carson was in top form when he welcomed ANN JILLIAN, actress/singer/ to the Tonight Show. This was Ann Jillian' Tonight Show debut and she got a standing ovation from both Johnny Carson and the entire audience. Comic Klein was also on this show and he said it on air to Ann Jillian and Johnny Carson "Great job Ann, her Tonight Show debut, wow!". Ann sang the emotional ballad, "I'm Coming Home" and boy did she ever! She looked fantastic and sang with all her heart. This was truly one on those show biz moments that occur on rare occasions and should not be missed. Must see television on an iconic TV show. I loved it!
