Cailee Spaeny is a young actress with obvious natural talent.     Her name for me is quite a mouthful that survived getting the usual Hollywood rename.     Cailee is an unusual but very charming and fitting name for this Cinema Princess.   Cailee recently got my attention in the Alex Garland film, Civil War.     Her character was a combat photographer/intern, Jessie.     She was using her father’s obsolete, three-decade old Nikon film camera developing her film in the field! Three experienced journalists reluctantly agreed to let Jessie travel with them from NYC to Washington, DC through war torn and often hostile territory.     Jessie fumbled her way along under the limited protection and guidance of the others.     She proved only too well, she’d risk her life to get those compelling money shots.     The character, Jessie and the others in the film give viewers a look into the lives of those journalists that br...

Hollywood, CA —I salute every performer or artist in the world for his or her contributions both big and small.   What a horrible world we’d be living in without the art, music, films, plays, dance and comedy. We all have our favorites celebrities.   Sometimes we are disappointed or shocked upon learning their personal politics or attitudes.   Sean Penn, Jane Fonda and Barbara Streisand immediately come to mind. After Hollywood's Blacklisting of Leftist artists in the 1950's it's now those artists on the Right getting the treatment.   Mel Gibson and James Woods are two of today's examples. I’m perhaps overly tolerant all people when in comes to those whose views are totally opposite of mine.   Sometimes those people have been indoctrinated their entire lives and believe every lie ever broadcast or published.   My job is to lead them by tolerance, kindness and example. I’m a really Conservative Libertarian.   In Hollywood I’ve m...

Chicago, IL —In 1973 the late Ann Leybourne Erwin Biebel was a Chicago recruit policewoman. Those who were fortunate enough to know her loved her. She retired as an 018 district Civil Service sergeant. She was a great wife and mother whose life was cut too short by cancer. My regular Chicago visitorss know the incredible and exciting story behind her valor award and Medal of Merit that the late Mayor, Richard J. Daley gave her after she was kidnapped at gunpoint and survived under the gravest extreem. It’s a story that reflects well on the department and the superior training provided to the officers. The department needs all the image building it can get right now after years of less the desirable administration. The City and department morale can only go up from its decline and we must wait and see what the new mayor will accomplish in the way of bringing back the taxpayers, business and jobs that have fled. Placing the baggage of President Obama or Richard M....

Hollywood, CA— When I heard Lindsay Lohan was set to play the late porn star, Linda Lovelace , I saw this as a career ender. That’s a role that should be played by a real porn star without a gag reflex and nothing to lose. This was a terrible role for Lohan. The other story is the production company was unable to find insurance to cover this troubled actress. getting out of that film was a gift for Lohan. Now we can see what unknown actress will become world famous for her ability swallow monster man meat. Lohan is both pretty and a talented actress. She was raised in a dysfunctional family and advised by both solid entertainment industry professionals and some real trolls. Lohan was a victim of her own early success and wealth. Lohan came out the successful Disney machine. Another, alumni of Disney is my dear friend, and Golden Globe winner Ann Jillian . Ann has express deep sorrow for Lohan difficulties as have I. I think discarding this woman at her age is pre-mature. Ann wants...

Chicago, IL -- These two money making giants say they want to give away half of their money. Okay I want to get into this line! I need several million dollars to make my film, Come Friday about heroic Chicago policewoman Ann Leybourne . It was New Year’s morning when serial rapist and career criminal Robert Ellis stalked and kidnapped the 25 year old recruit policewoman. Ellis kidnapped and raped nearly 50 attractive young women on Chicago’s gold Coast. On a legal technicality he was set free and his crimes continued. Some really great cops made Ellis their personal target but were never able to bag the cunning rapist. Ellis wore a surgical mask and was always armed with a gun or knife. He always struck on Friday Night. Chicago’s media dubbed him The Friday Night Rapist . I want to employ a director, actors, extras, editors as I pump some needed cash into Chicago’s struggling economy. There will be lots of work for off duty Chicago cops. This struggling film producer and sc...

Los Angeles, CA —Where are they? Where are the films that you really want to see? The compelling stories brought to the silver screen that have any relevance to our lives aren’t being made anymore. Animations, robots, and comedies that barely make us chuckle are wasting space at the cinema’s. Gone are compelling stories of real heroes, courtroom dramas or historical events. Personally, I want more actor driven films without the ridicules special effects that are just silly and not believable. When I was visiting the Bendlerblock military compound in Berlin last November, I found 5000 stories there waiting to be told. That is where Col. Clause Von Stauffenberg and others planned the bombing attempt on Adolph Hitler’s life. Today a portion of that facility houses the German Resistance Museum. The stories here of of the heroes that were arrested tried and executed for resisting Adolph Hitler and the devastation he brought down on the German people. The stories documented there ar...

Los Angeles, CA —There is no question that the capital of America’s subversive, Leftist, Marxist philosophy is Hollywood. The who’s who of stars, writers and directors love to outdo each other showing their allegiance to all things Left. Of course these clowns make their money not from a Socialist system but a free market where they can earn tens of millions for each film. They live lavish lifestyles as they castigate the American way of life and buy their Communist friend’s various political offices. Hollywood’s Leftist elite use their fame as a Marxist pulpit as they whine about the blacklisting days of the 1950s. The fact is Hollywood was always loaded with Communists that professed hatred for the American system of government. That still is true today. Blacklisting was and is real today. Conservative themed films are very rare but are usually huge moneymakers if they are allowed to see the light of day. The films, Dirty Harry and Death Wish attacked the Social Justice crowd’...

Forest Park, IL —Former Cook County State’s Attorney Edward V. Hanrahan has died. I last talked with Hanaran who was long retired while researching my screenplay, Come Friday . Hanaran is best known for leading that infamous Black Panther Raid one cold December morning in 1969. That's when two heavily armed ghetto rats, Fred Hampton and Mark Clark caught some serious lead when they attacked officers from the State’s Attorney’s police that were serving a search warrant. Frankly I’ve danced, peed and spat on their graves ever since. Hampton and Clark advocated the murder of Chicago cops. They got just what they deserved. Politics rules in Cook County and they Indicted Hanaran along with 14 of the raiders. The prosecution ended in 1972 without convictions and civil litigation went on for over two decades. The taxpayers ate it again. Hanaran was also famous for the prosecution of the Friday Night Rapist, Robert Ellis . That case ended when a recent Supreme Court opinion prompte...

Chicago, IL —It was a cold 1973 New Year’s incident where a young woman survived a kidnapping by a prolific sadistic rapist on the fashionable Near North Side. It became an amazing and much larger story of a broken criminal justice system, a terrorized neighborhood along with the self-reliance and bravery of a beautiful recruit policewoman, Ann Leybourne . This true story, Come Friday needs to be seen in a theater near you and it may happen as some investor sees an opportunity to place his or her money in an industry that thrived during our Great depression. Entertainment somehow managed to survive while other industries drowned in a sea of red ink. Normally feature films are a riskier investment but the payoff can be quite handsome. Now is a better time than ever to evade the stock market or even more dangerous places for your money. Any investor can take the project to a talent agency and get the film made. directors, actors and other needed talent will be made available and the fil...
