Requests

requests1

Thankfully we get lots of requests for new pages.  Well…the wife recently informed me that my way of collecting my requests was pretty weak.  She seems to think that writing down requests on whatever piece of paper or napkin or bill that is currently on my desk is not the way to do it.  So….since she is way smarter than me….I have decided to create a page just for requests.  Plus it should give a good idea of what pages are coming down the pike.

My logic in picking which page to do next….I lean heavily towards the subject that has the most requests.

  • Roger Corman – request by Dan
  • Peter Cushing – request made by SteveLensman, Dan & Brando 90
  • Disney Live Action 1967-1980 – request by Mimic
  • Foreign Movies requested by Laurent
  • Samuel Goldwyn – request by Dan
  • Sam Katzman – request by Dan
  • Fritz Lang – request by Lupino, Just Me
  • Bruce Lee – request by Brando 90
  • Harold Lloyd – request by Søren, Me
  • Henry Mancini – request by Flora
  • Patricia Medina – request by Dan
  • Mirisch Brothers – request by Dan
  • Edward Small – request by Dan
  • Rudolph Valentino – request by Laurent

Completed requests:

Many more to come…have to find all of my old napkins and transfer the requests to this page.

    1. Hey Mike….we are currently experiencing some technical issues and access to the database is very limited. WoC comes home Wednesday night from a business trip…..but will probably not even think about tinkering with the site until Thursday at the latest. My website provider (the guilty will remain anonymous) has been no help at all. But I will get some of Vera’s numbers up soon.

    2. Vera Miles was never on the Oracle of Bacon top 1000 Center of the Hollywood Universe list. These are the people on the 2016 list who appeared in a film with her;

      1. Hey Dan
        1. Interesting lists….thanks for sharing.
        2. Good to see Rance Howard pop up there. The late Mr. Howard still has lots of upcoming projects….so I actually think he will keep his spot for at least a year or two….before the fall starts.
        3. 14 Oscar winners seems low…..I wonder how her career would have gone if she was not under Hitchcock’s wing….seems he rarely used her…..during her peak years.
        4. I don’t think I realize she had made 4 movies with John Wayne.
        Good information.
