Whenever you feel alone, just remember that those kings will always be there to guide you. And so will I.

Born to a turbulent family on a Mississippi farm, James Earl Jones passed away today. He was ninety-three years old. Abandoned by his parents as a child and raised by a racist grandmother (although he later reconciled with his actor father and performed alongside him as an adult), the trauma of his childhood developed into a stutter that followed him through his primary school years – sometimes, his stutter was so debilitating, he could not speak at all. In high school, Jones found in an English teacher someone who found in him a talent for written expression, and encouraged him to write and recite poetry in class. He overcame his stutter by graduation, although the effects of it carried over for the remainder of his life.

Jones' most accomplished roles may have been on the Broadway stage, where he won three Tonys (twice winning Best Actor in a Play for originating the lead roles in 1969's The Great White Hope by Howard Sackler and 1987's Fences by August Wilson) and was considered one of the best Shakespearean actors of his time.

But his contributions to cinema left an impact on audiences, too. Jones received an Honorary Academy Award alongside makeup artist Dick Smith (1972's The Godfather, 1984's Amadeus) in 2011. From the end of Hollywood's Golden Age to the dawn of the summer Hollywood blockbuster in the 1970s to the present, Jones' presence – and his basso profundo voice – could scarcely be ignored. Though he could not sing like Paul Robeson nor had the looks of Sidney Poitier, his presence and command put him in league of both of his acting predecessors.

Ten of the films James Earl Jones appeared in, whether in-person or voice acting, follow (left-right, descending):

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) – directed by Stanley Kubrick; also starring Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, and Slim Pickens

The Great White Hope (1970) – directed by Martin Ritt; also starring Jane Alexander, Chester Morris, Hal Holbrook Beah Richards, and Moses Gunn

Star Wars saga (1977-2019; A New Hope pictured) – multiple directors, as the voice of Darth Vader, also starring Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Peter Cushing, Alec Guinness, Billy Dee Williams, Anthony Daniels, David Prowse, Kenny Baker, Peter Mayhew, and Frank Oz

Claudine (1974) – directed by John Berry; also starring Diahann Carroll, Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, and Tamu Blackwell

Conan the Barbarian (1982) – directed by John Milius; also starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sandahl Bergman, Ben Davidson, Cassandra Gaviola, Gerry Lopez, Mako, Valerie Quennessen, William Smith, and Max von Sydow

Coming to America series (1988 and 2021; original pictured) – multiple directors; also starring Eddie Murphy, Arsenio Hall, John Amos, Madge Sinclair, Shari Headley, Jermaine Fowler, Leslie Jones, Tracy Morgan, and KiKi Layne

The Hunt for Red October (1990) – directed by John McTiernan; also starring Sean Connery, Alec Baldwin, Scott Glenn, and Sam Neill

The Sandlot (1993) – directed by David Mickey Evans; also staring Tom Guiry, Mike Vitar, Patrick Renna, Chauncey Leopardi, Marty York, Brandon Adams, Grant Gelt, Shane Obedzinski, Victor DiMattia, Denis Leary, and Karen Allen

The Lion King (1994) – directed by Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff, as the voice of Mufasa; also starring Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Matthew Broderick, Jeremy Irons, Moira Kelly, Niketa Calame, Ernie Sabella, Nathan Lane, and Robert Guillaume, Rowan Atkinson, Whoopi Goldberg, Cheech Marin, Jim Cummings, and Madge Sinclair

Field of Dreams (1989) – directed by Phil Alden Robinson; also starring Kevin Costner, Amy Madigan, Ray Liotta, and Burt Lancaster

CARRIE FISHER

CARRIE FISHER

21 October 1956 – 27 December 2016

            Carrie Fisher was an American actress and writer. She is best known for playing Princess Leia in the Star Wars series. She also appeared in The Blues Brothers (1980), The Burbs’ (1989), Scream 3 (2000), Frankenstein (1984), Roseanne (1997), and Sex and the City (2000).

            Fisher was born in Burbank, California, to Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher. Her grandparents were Russian Jewish immigrants, and she also was of Scottish and English descent. Fisher loved reading books growing up and was known to the family as ‘the bookworm’. She attended Beverly Hills High School until she was 15.

            Fisher was in a relationship with music artist Paul Simon from 1977 until 1983. She was briefly engaged to actor Dan Aykroyd during the filming of The Blues Brothers but got back together with Paul Simon and who she married from 1983 to 1984. She had a child with her agent Bryan Lourd, but he was a homosexual, so it didn’t last. During the filming of Star Wars (1976) she had a three-month affair with Harrison Ford and continued to have a soft spot for him after it was over.

            In 2005, R. Gregory ‘Greg’ Stevens, a friend of hers died in her mansion, from drug use and heart disease. Fisher claimed he haunted her mansion which unsettled her. Fisher suffered from bipolar disorder and had been addicted to cocaine and prescription medication. Fisher did a lot of work for different charity organizations and owned a fur son, a French bulldog, Gary.

            Fisher was on a European book tour before she died and appeared on the Graham Norton Show. On 23 December 2016 she was flying from London to Los Angeles when she stopped breathing 15 minutes before the plane landed. A passenger performed CPR on her until the paramedics arrived at the scene. She was taken by ambulance to the medical centre and was placed on a ventilator. She was in intensive care for four days before she died on 27 December, aged 60. She died from cardiac arrest, fatty tissue on her arteries, and had cocaine in her system with traces of heroin, opiates and MDMA. Her mother Debbie was with her family planning Carrie’s burial arrangements when she had a stroke, before she died she said “I want to be with Carrie’ before she died that afternoon from a stroke. Carrie and Debbie were a Hollywood mother-daughter duo with mutual love and support, and the two were buried together. Carrie’s dog Gary was put in the care of her daughter.

We’d like to thank the entire Department for tuning in last night to support Taylor and all the incredible artists at the #GRAMMYs! Nofuckinbody loves #TSTTPD more than you, and we couldn’t be prouder of what this album has accomplished.

LOVE TTPD NO MATTER WHAT!

Thank You @taylorswift for gifting us this incredible album! 🫶🏽🫶🏽

[eeblouissant]

Always happy to provide new ask games haha! I'm going to ask you the same question you asked me -- your top 5 sitcoms/tv series!

If you're in the mood for more, I'd also love to know your top 5 artistic influences and/or your top 5 singers/bands :)

hey!! thank you for the questions ☺️ (this got a bit long, oops 😭)

I think the only sitcoms I’ve actually watched all the way through and enjoyed are/were tgg and modern family, so I can’t make a list there - but I can make a list of my favourite TV series in general :)

1) would have to be The Crown - but we all know about my special interest at this point so I’m sure it comes as a shock to no one 😂

2) the golden girls, obviously. They really fought for that top spot but, you know. me when I me I guess lol

3) bojack horseman - I could write an essay on this one, but I’ll spare everyone

4) the middle

5) modern family

I don’t watch much, but my mum watched a handful of series while I was growing up so they were kind of just always on in the background - that’s how I fell in love with tgg actually!

I really love that second question, here’re my top 5 artists :) (artists that have heavily inspired my style, I feel like my style is a mashup of all of these honestly 😭)

1) really most fashion magazines from the 1900s - late 1920s, there would be too many artists to name here 😅 (la vie Parisienne has been the most consistent inspiration though)

2) the Polonaise collection

3) vogue patterns (from between the 40s & 50s mostly)

4) Harrison Fisher

5) Nell Brinkley

​as for music… oh boy. I’d have a hard time choosing just five because I love SO many artists & bands - let me see

Currently (because it changes a lot) it’d have to be:

1) Jonathan Bree

2) Bauhaus

3) Garbage

4) Radiohead

5) & not an artist, but the song Born Too Late - if you’ve ever needed the perfect song to freak out over your favourite middle aged actresses &/or characters to, this is the one! (looking at Bea Arthur so hard rn) (<- im half joking) (It’s also just a lovely song, I’ve had it on repeat for a while)

Mary Mallory / Hollywood Heights: Nell Brinkley, Queen of Early American Comics

Note: This is an encore post from 2013. When Americans think of classic illustrators from the early 20th century, names such as Charles Dana Gibson, Harrison Fisher, Haskell Coffin, James Montgomery Flagg, and John Held Jr. spring to mind. Forgotten by almost everyone, but in every way these men’s equal, is the great female artist Nell Brinkley. Her image of American womanhood supplanted that of…

Sgt Splendor Chelsea Hotel No 2 (Leonard Cohen Cover)

Sgt Splendor Chelsea Hotel No 2 (Leonard Cohen cover) The Launchpad, Albuquerque New Mexico December 28, 2024 Video Keith Langerman

Sgt. Splendor . Before joining forces, the duo behind Sgt. Splendor were already formidable solo artists, Kate Vargas chalking up acclaim at outlets like NPR, HuffPost, SPIN, No Depression, Rolling Stone and Vice (including praise from the “Dean of American Rock Critics” Robert Christgau); and Eric McFadden amassing an impressive resume including stints on guitar with George Clinton & the P-Funk All Stars, Anders Osbourne, Fishbone’s Angelo Moore, and Eric Burdon & The Animals, plus a slew of solo albums, and session work and gigs with everyone from Jackson Browne to The Clash’s Joe Strummer. Sgt Splendor’s 2nd release, “Death of the Hoochie Koo” dropped May 19th, 2003 on Buena Vista West Records.

“Tom Waits’ music has always been a point of connection for me & Kate. While our musical approaches differ, they’re also kindred and share a lot of common elements. Our Southwestern upbringing comes through—that sort of mysteriouso desert thing—but also a carnivalesque Waits-ian vibe. The new record is a bit more cohesive but still eclectic. Kind of an Alt-Funk, Desert Roots, Dirty Blues, Rock thing. Our styles have always been complementary.” Vargas concurs: “Sgt. Splendor really feels like a combination of both of us—equally.” Among the players who have accompanied Sgt Splendor in the studio and on stage are: Dave Schools (Widespread Panic), Norwood Fisher & Angelo Moore (Fishbone), Dominic Davis (Jack White), Paulo Baldi (Les Claypool), Falcon Greenwell (Tedeschi Trucks), Jerry Harrison (Talking Heads).
