Edgar Allen Poe Rises from the Grave

Missed out on ever meeting Edgar Allen Poe? Well I think everyone is in the same boat. Yet a man going by the name of David Keltz has immersed himself in Poe's works that he now recites the great poems (much like reciting Shakespeare) and stories, while he tours across the nation.

Cigar Aficionado

Great article "Back on Track" written by Gordon Mott in 2004, covering Alec Baldwin's early career. Its a must read....Cigar Aficionado-back issue

Also I always like to promote other worthy organizations. Mr. Baldwin's mother who had gone through Breast Cancer had started a foundation. Though from the looks of it the website might currently be down....Carol M. Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Fund or FB

Emma Watson

When I picked up the first Harry Potter book, which must have been in high school, I didn't know what to think. I think I had only gotten to the part where young Harry was living under the stairs and finally I decided to take the book back. I think I was a bit confused about what was really going on and no offense to J.K. Rolling. Years latter I am now a Harry Potter fan. Though I have not read any of the books I have seen all the movies. Countless times I might add.

In the July issue of Vogue 2011 Emma Watson tells Amanda Foreman about life after Harry Potter. The trials of escaping the world that she grew up in and how she has gotten through them.

Natalie Portman

Actress Natalie Portman performed exceptional in the movie Black Swan as her performance was so edgy and twisted that I was actually on the edge of my seat the entire time. In the Vogue January 2011 issue Written by Joan Juliet covers Portman's role in the movie and highlights some of her other great contributions and qualities outside of acting.  Photographs taken by Peter Lindbergh are also an added bonus to this article.

I've always enjoyed watching Natalie Portman on screen. Garden State and now Black Swan are among my top two favorites.

The Hostess will Serve You Now

Article in Dark Realms Magazine Issue 21 talks about horror movie hosts..while I would be interested in watching the hosts mentioned in the article the only horror movie host that I have been interested in has been Elvira. Elvira Mistress of the Dark. I started out watching her on TV and then discovered that she had made two movies. I suggest you pick of copies or watch them through Netflix (if offered). I currently have her as my desktop background! In fact I just might watch one of them tonight..then post them as a Tribute on a horror movie blog I'm involved in.

William Shatner

A small blurb in Wired Magazine 2006 about a movie club...operated by William Shatner or maybe his alter ego Captain Kirk. But who's to say?  By joining his movie club Mr. Shanter will mail out his own selection of movies each month. I tried going to the website and it looks like its down. It might be that he is no longer offering his DVD Club. Mr. Shatner is a busy man. Great idea though. I have tried DVD clubs in the past and always got my pocket book gouged, but I would trust Mr. Shatner not to operate like a large DVD mail order corporation.
