Hi - what a fun website! I am desperately trying to get hold of two of Roddy's films - The Cool Ones and Hello Down There. They don't seem to be available on video. I would gladly pay to get a copy of someone's copy - any information at all would be so very, very appreciated.
Thanks!

Don't worry, Paul. If the convention/dinner ever comes off, I'll rent a limo and we'll take Roddy, Roc and Mel on a tour of the sites of Buffalo.
I'm sure it would be an experience he would never forget.

That's ok, Paul. You don't have to like Barry. Actually, I don't care much for Copacabana myself. I enjoy hearing it in concert, but I *never* listen to the record.

Paul,
Shame on you. I think it was Rolling Stone that called Barry "the master showman of our generation." Although, in your defense, if there ever was a song that could drive someone over the edge, it's "Copacabana."
Dana, I think the Barry fans should plan to meet in Las Vegas next time he's there. We could also have a mini RM convention and visit the movie museum at the Debbie Reynolds casino.
If the Buffalo thing ever comes off we'll need a bus. One with reclining seats for all of those who plan to pass out. We'll have to work on that visa, Mel.

Hi, all!
Just got my system back up and running-major hard drive and OS crash, resulting in replacement of lots of stuff. YUCK!
Been watching all the dialogue about Buffalo and RM... I don't plan on unconsciousness personally. I see a lot of celebraties in Savannah with all the movies being filmed in the area. Kenneth Branaugh just left and we have Clint Eastwood here now to prepare for "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil." (I'm hoping to get in that as an extra, since I knew Jim Williams and Danny Hansford.)
Rosie O'Donnell (SP?) makes fun of St. Joseph Hospital in the HBO thing she did last year and Demi Moore wants to buy a house in the area. Roseanne is threatening to buy a farm just outside of Savannah. But, alas, no Roddy yet... Maybe with "Midnight."

Sounds like a great idea to me! Did you know that his annual fan club convention is usually held in Vegas? This year it will be held in Memphis and Nashville instead.

While I would never admit to this in public (since i'm a *closet* manilow fan), I was very impressed by a couple of televised/recorded concerts of his I saw... Even though my last three trips to Vegas had to be cancelled at the last moment, I'd could get into planning to go to a concert -- and I never have visited Reynolds's movie museum. I wouldn't want to take RM to Vegas, though, it would be too easy to lose him in a crowd...

As one who practically lives in RM's backyard, I'm all in favor of moving this mythical (but quite entertaining!) convention out here to sunny California... after all, RM might not *want* to travel all that way (especially not with a plane load of lunatics like us!)

To tell you the truth, I think an ambulance might be more in order ... No, that'd be too small -- maybe an Army surplus medical evacuation vehicle. After all, some of us may not be conscious when the plane lands -- and Roddy himself might well have gone into shock and sensory overload... Better have lots of oxygen on hand, just to be on the safe side.

Evil and ugly rumor, Sally, I swa'n. I'm not getting any older, 'kay?
Incidentally -- I caught IT on AMC when it ran recently, after having not seen it for quite a few years. What a fun movie! What a fun guy! I'd almost forgotten... What an uncanny ability he has to make even less-than-sterling material just shine. There used to be plenty of Roddy movies that I'd be able to say, "Eh, don't much care for that one," about, but now as I revisit them more and more I do find that *he's* quite simply worth watching. He *does* make the movies, yes? And I mean, not just bearable , but actually worth watching. Wow.
Did I see, too, that MOLLY AND ME is going to be broadcast? That really is one of my favs. Hope anybody who hasn't seen it gets to, now. And report your impressions, 'kay? I'm just so in love with this flick that it's almost scary... (My housemate can quote right along, in her sleep, unintentionally)

Subject: That toast of RM to ET
Hi everyone,
I saw this on the Hollywood Gossip.com page.
http://www.hollywoodnetwork.com/gossip/board.html
Hollywood Gossip
Hosted by Cathy Griffin
"I hope for you a life, finally, without pain, and lasting good
health,"-- so toasted Roddy McDowall to his lifelong friend Elizabeth
Taylor following the taping of her 65th birthday party Sunday night. I
couldn't wish anything more for Ms. Taylor who is expected to undergo
brain surgery this week. The movie legend has gone under the knife too
many times to mention. It was thrilling for me to share in her
birthday gala which will air on ABC next Tuesday. She looked gorgeous
in Valentino. It was an elegant evening full of stars, terrific film
clips from her career, tempestuous personal life and a montage of
scenes from her 55 years in Hollywood that remind us what a remarkably
full life she has led. The night began with Roseanne's entrance as
Cleopatra, brought on stage by four hunks in turbans. Whoopi
Goldberg's pre-taped ditty was a scream as she was all decked out in
faux jewels poking good-humored fun at E.T. Michael Jackson who was
Taylor's date for the evening sang a schmaltzy number called
"Elizabeth" (which he did not write -- despite stories to the
contrary). He did his usual stomp of foot look up into the spotlight
ala "Jesus Christ Superstar" -- and there was not the hysterics in the
audience that Michael has been used to. The King of Pop must have been
miserable watching Patti Labelle's rendition of "You are So Beautiful"
and "Where You Lead" leave the audience breathless. The standing
ovation and applause was greater for her than Michael. Like a child
Michael vyed for the attention of every performer and presenter as he
sat next to Taylor on the front row. It was a who's who list on stage:
Cher (looking ravishing with fuller hair and an elegant grey-ish gown,
Rod Stewart, Harry Connick Jr., David Copperfield (he brought E.T. on
stage and made her famous Krupp diamond disappear, then brought it
back), Claudia Schiffer, Hugh Grant and gal pal Liz Hurley who looked
like she had stopped down the street at Fredrick's of Hollywood for
her hideous black lace see-through number that could have just as
easily been more appropriate on Divine Brown. Say...couldn't Liz have
squeezed an outfit out of Estee Lauder. Tacky! Tacky! Best dressed
goes to Christine Baranskie for her hot pink sequined dress that
showed she has a figure better than Barbie. I told her afterwards that
she had inspired me to stay on the Phen-fen! Madonna was a surprise
guest brought in at the end to bring Elizabeth onto the stage. Michael
Jackson had tried to find out over the weekend who was introducing
Taylor but no one connected with the show wanted to tell him Ms. M
would be doing the honors for fear his ongoing rivalry with her would
cause him to pull out at the last minute. He really kissed up to her
big time!. Could it be that Michael knows he's really over in the
United States and that Madonna has succeeded in being close to
acceptance in the movie world. I know she will always be a bit eau
autraire but at least she is not considered a freak! With his curly
locks and painted face he looked like a 'big girl' next to Taylor! As
much affection and a certain affinity I have with E.T., I cannot
understand what keeps her friendship alive with Jackson!!! It's
obvious he needs her right now. Did you notice how he twirled her
around and around on the way inside the theater making sure not one
camera missed photographing them together. My question for Michael is
how he could leave his wife and less than a week old son at home alone
and for Elizabeth I wonder why she had to have Michael escort her.
Roddy McDowall, her friend of almost 60 years was a logical choice --
if he wasn't "current" enough then there were lots of other choices.
She could have had her pick of famous, hip male escorts. It's not like
there aren't enough Baldwin brothers to go around either -- so what
gives with this bizarre relationship. How many times can these two go
over their unhappy childhoods???!!!

Hawaii sounds good.
But seriously - I'm planning a big trip in June/July 1999. Because of the distances involved travelling from Australia - when we go somewhere we make it worth our while (return airfares from Brisbane to LA are about $1500 - $1800). I'll be travelling with 2 friends and we'll fly into LA, then I'll be staying with a friend in Portland, then joining up with my friends for a Star Trek Cruise around Alaska (SeaTrek) and then we plan to travel across Canada and end up in Toronto (and seeing Lynne Ackerman) where we'll part company and then I'll visit friends on the East Coast (New Hampshire and Rhode Island). So if I'm travelling anywhere, where I can meet up with any RM fans - please let me know. I'd love to meet as many of you as I can.

O.K. I've got it! If the convention has to be in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, let's go to Hawaii. We could meet Roddy on the beach. At least those of us who will pass out will get a chance to work on our tans.
Seriously, I would consider coming to Las Vegas for a mini RM convention/Barry Manilow concert. I attended a convention of the Michael Crawford fan club when he was out there at the MGM Grand and it was wild. I've never been to Debbie Reynolds' museum. I wonder if she has any of Roddy's artifacts.

Hi Gang!
Well, after spending over an hour determining that the lady at the information number had given us the wrong address, we finally found the Academy Village and theatre... and also discovered that she was mistaken when she told us the event was sold out.
For RM factor, the evening was a bit of a let down. He spoke for only 10-15 minutes, then disappeared after introducing a montage of Chuck Jones cartoons. Jones himself wasn't there either, doctor's orders, so as a consolation we got to see a "world premiere" of the sequel to "One Froggy Evening" -- the *wonderful* "Another Froggy Evening".
RM looked and sounded wonderful, but there was no chance to speak to him as, like I said above, he ducked out during the cartoon montage. Oh well. At least I got there this time!

Subject: Oscar show
According to a Dayton Daily News article (Tue, Mar 25 1997, GREENERY GROWS ON OSCAR CROWD), RM was at the Oscar show. Excerpts from the article:
The grande dames stayed conservative: Lauren Bacall, Julie Andrews
and Debbie Reynolds kept to basic black. Designers' names were
quick off the lips: Faye Dunaway replied `Armani' to a question
about her win for Network. And Armani it was, with a nod to Donna
Karan, which went far, being Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon who did
the nodding. And if green was acceptable, best-actress nominee
Brenda Blethyn looked refreshingly different, outrageous even,
wearing - of all things - yellow.
Only Roddy McDowall kept the faith, answering `I never tell' to the
question of the night: `Who are you wearing?'

Subject: Roddy on Oscar Pre-Show
Since no one has mentioned it yet (unless it's in a post I haven't gotten to yet...I'm still enormously behind!), I just wondered if I was the only one who saw Roddy on the E! Oscar pre-show? He was with Kate Burton, Richard and Sybil Burton's daughter. (Anyone else watch the series she did a few years ago? I think it was called something like "Home Fires", or had "Home" in the title somewhere anyways. Unfortunately it only lasted for a few episodes (although I thought it was pretty good), but I do have them on tape...somewhere !! I think she's mostly doing theatre these days though, and not much TV or movies.) Both of them looked really great, BTW.
At any rate, Joan Rivers interviewed Roddy when he came in, but it wasn't much, just basically saying to the audience, this is Roddy McDowall. Roddy introduced Kate, but I don't think Joan even realized who she was! She didn't react at all, or talk to Kate. Of course _I_ went nuts because I'm one of Richard and Elizabeth's greatest fans, and whenever I get to see any of their kids it just makes my day! And of course I recognized Kate immediately when they showed her and Roddy as they arrived! (And I'm sure the people who live in the next apartment must have wondered what was going on when I suddenly screamed out, 'oh, my God, it's Roddy and Kate !!')
