Terence "Bud" Crawford: Spence Down, Canelo To Go?

By Chris Osborn On July 29th, 2023, Terence “Bud” Crawford dispatched Errol Spence Jr. in dominant fashion. He did so with as much cunning, calculation and ferocity as have ever been displayed in a boxing ring. Most boxing insiders picked Crawford to win, but very few expected the domination that took place in this match. Continue reading Untitled

Congrats to the ultimate winner of the Hot & Vintage Movie Men Tournament, Mr. Toshiro Mifune! May he live happily and well where the sun always shines, enjoying the glories of a battle hard fought.

A loving farewell to all of our previous contestants, who are now banished to the shadow realm and all its dark joys and whispered horrors—I hear there's a picnic on the village green today. If you want to remember the fallen heroes, you can find them all beneath the cut.

What happens next? I'll be taking a break of two weeks to rest from this and prep for the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament. I'll still be around but only minimally, posting a few last odes to the hot men before transitioning into a little early ladies content, just like I did with this last tournament. The submission form for the Hot & Vintage Ladies tournament will remain up for one more week (closing February 21st), so get your submissions in for that asap! Once the form closes, there will be one more week of break. The first round of the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament will be posted on February 29th, as Leap Year Day seems like a fitting allusion to leaping into these ladies' arms.

Thanks for being here! Enjoy the two weeks off, and send me some great propaganda.

Liable To Fall - Chapter 1 (Scrooge/OC)(Post-Canon)

A nasty fall from a rickety footstool steals some of Ebenezer Scrooge's precious and recent memories. As his mortal self struggles to remember recent events, including his courtship and recent marriage, his Present conscious takes a ghostly form. With only the ghost of his former business partner privy to his misery, he is forced to watch the spectacle of his Past self attempt to readjust to his changed life.

A continuation of Begin Again.

Read on AO3

On an otherwise unsuspecting Thursday evening, the tranquility of the Scrooge manor was interrupted by a loud, bone-jostling crash. The disturbing resonance rattled the floorboards and accosted the walls, slithering through cracks and air vents with uncanny volume.

It was more than enough to startle the manor’s lady, Constance Albany DoGoode-Scrooge, out of her daydream. She’d been seated before a roaring fire in the home’s spacious second floor sitting room, reading her husband’s vintage copy of Robinson Crusoe by firelight while Prudence snored at her side.

“He told me it was for Men of desperate Fortunes on one Hand, or of aspiring, superior Fortunes on the other, who went abroad upon Adventures, to rise by Enterprize, and make themselves famous in Undertakings of a Nature out of the common Road; that these things were all either too far above me, or too far below me …” she read aloud, cheating glances at Prudence as she acted the different parts aloud. “Are you already snoozing?”

“Hmph!” the mastiff huffed, the dog's breath almost as warm as the firelight on her skin.

“Silly girl, we’ve just started!”

She rolled over and pawed at Constance's elbow, asking for pets. Uncle Harry gave the best belly rubs, but hers would have to do.

Obliging with a laugh, Constance continued to read, “… that mine was the middle State, or what might be called the upper Station of Low Life, which he had found by long Experience was the best State in the World, the most suited to human Happiness, not exposed to the Miseries and Hardships, the Labour and Sufferings of the mechanick Part of Mankind, and not embarass’d with the Pride, Luxury, Ambition and Envy of the upper Part of Mankind."

The dog’s large head had rested comfortably in the woman’s lap, her tongue occasionally lolling from between her fanged teeth to create a spot of drool on the woman’s nightgown. Even if Constance had noticed, she wouldn’t have cared.

“He told me, I might judge of the Happiness of this State, by this one thing—”

Then came the crash.

The strident sound screamed through the halls, interrupted the tranquility, and her narration. Upon hearing and feeling the reverberation of the impact in the floorboards, the woman and mastiff shared concerned looks.

“Ebenezer?” Constance called out in worry. She craned her neck in an attempt to peer past the doorway, as if her answer lay in the shadows of the dark corridors. “Is something wrong?”

No answer. “Magda? E-Errol?”

A flurry of footsteps sounded from another part of the house, but no tangible voice answered her call.

Was it possible that one of the Cratchits had stopped in for a visit? They were trusted friends and had keys to the home, but they always announced themselves, and rarely showed up past sunset. Harry and Hela were the same, and with a young daughter to take care of now, they

She was running out of people already, but the sound had to have come from somewhere. Unless … was someone else in the house? Had someone broken in?

Just as she stood to investigate, a distant yell reverberated from the house’s inner corridors.

“Constance, it’s Ebenezer!” Magda called out; her voice frayed with urgency. “H-He’s fallen in the study – come help me with him, please!”

Oh, no. No.

“Hurry!” the maid called again, more insistently this time.

Constance was up in a flash, abandoning everything in the sitting room and practically flying down the halls. In her haste she didn’t even reach for her candle, opting to leave it behind and feel her way through the familiar house. Guided only by instinct and traces of waning sunlight seeping through the cracked windows, she found her way without single delay or injury. The emerald-colored gown and golden dressing robe she wore billowed behind her as she ran through the home, skidding on the wooden floors on socked feet.

When she practically stumbled over the threshold of Ebenezer’s study, she saw her husband laying unresponsive on the floor amidst a scattering of books, with Magda gently fitting the cushion from his desk chair under his head. Cast off to the side was a toppled stepladder, one of the rungs snapped in half, laying crooked before one of the towering bookcases.

Constance was on her knees at his side immediately. She knew better than to move him too much, but it didn’t take a doctor to see that he was unconscious – but still quite pale.

Once Constance was at her side, Magda quickly deposited Ebenezer’s larger hand into hers for safekeeping. The older woman had been taken it up to check the pulse in his wrist for any beat.

“Stay with him,” the maid said, “I’ll send Errol to fetch us a doctor right away!”

Picking up her skirt and moving faster than a rabbit in a fox hunt, she was down the main stairs and through the main entryway in a heartbeat. She didn’t waste the extra second it took to latch the door behind her, opting instead to let it swing on its hinges in the twilit evening’s icy air. Prudence also sprinted in, borderline frantic at the sight of her beloved owner in distress.

As she sat beside Constance and surveyed the scene with terrified and understanding eyes, the woman held firm at her husband’s side. All her energy went into staying calm and trying to make sure she did not disturb him for fear of aggravating his condition any further.

To siphon out the manic energy building inside her with every passing second, she stroked the sides of his face lovingly, fingers shaking as if she was out in the blistering cold.

All the while, she repeated his name like a mantra.

“Ebenezer…”

Constance shook her head in denial of everything, her copper hair falling loose from its wrappings to flow around her shoulders. Powerless to do anything else, she stooped over and pressed her forehead to his, tears running in silver rivers down her freckled cheeks.

“Ebenezer.”

 “Well, this is certainly a surprise, old boy.”

Ebenezer awoke with a start, awakening to the sensation of tingling numbness throughout his entire body. It felt like needles pricking his skin all over, and ice racing through his veins like rain through London’s sprawling gutters. Regardless of this, he was able to stand, limbs somehow lead-like in clunkiness yet also light as dust clouds in weight.

One glimpse at his appendages, and they looked … wrong. They were misty and diaphanous as light, not solid as they should have been.

The rush of dizziness he felt after standing on his legs was not nearly as distressing as the sight his eyes fell upon a moment later; his own body, lying resigned on the floor with Constance cradling him, curled upon him like the mourning angels that decorated large gravestones.

Terror snapped at his heart like the jaw of a rapid animal.

“I …. I am…”

“Dead? No, you are not,” the familiar, corporeal voice said. “If you were, you wouldn’t be tethered to this mortal realm like I am. I’d say the closest comparison is that you are … lucid dreaming.”

Ebenezer veered around again, fighting another wave of dizziness, to see the source of the voice. There, before him, seated in his desk chair was his former mentor. An icy specter dressed in rags, icicles protruding from his bruised, frost-bitten skin. His slate-colored hair and mustache fluttered about weightlessly, as if he was suspended in water.

Most notably, the golden obols on his hollowed eyes sparked a shade of vibrant gold, a stark contrast to the icy hues that fully encapsulated the rest of the man’s uncannily preserved body.

“Jacob Marley…” he muttered again, shock temporarily absorbing his terror. “W-Wait. H-How is the possible? H-How are we…?”

He chanced another look down at his hands and noticed that the indentations of the walnut floor were visible through what should have been a solid layer of flesh. Barely holding back panic, he fell to his knees and scrambled to Constance’s side. He reached out to grasp her shoulders, but his hands slipped through her. Blinking, he retracted his hands from her, then more gently, teased his fingertips along her spine.

His fingers slipped right through the back of her robe. There was not a trace of the usual warmth he felt emanating from her, nor any indication that she was even there. It was as if they existed on two different planes of existence.

As if sensing the next question on his friend’s tongue, Jacob chuckled forlornly. “Relax. It’s quite normal, my boy. It took me seven years to talk to you, remember?”

“Yes, but you were dead!” he reminded him, pointing an accusing finger at the spirit. “Jacob, you … you are dead. That why you came to me that Christmas Eve night. Y-You spoke to me then.”

The ghost inclined its head. “I did, and I can see that the conversation paid quite bountiful dividends.”

His ghostly gaze flicked to the worried, copper-haired woman cradling Scrooge’s body unresponsive form. The ghost rose from the chair then, levitating mere inches off the ground as the chains and lockboxes continued to anchor him to the mortal plane and delay his ascension.

“You are a changed man,” Jacob murmured, his voice softer than Scrooge could ever remember hearing it, “I could not be prouder, nor more relieved, for you. You heeded my words …”

His gaze softened at his partner’s kind words. They breached his hardened heart “Jacob.”

“Finally!” the ghost said, throwing his hands up dramatically. “You were too bloody stubborn to listen to most of my advice in life! Now, almost a full decade after I breathed my last and had to literally haunt your dreams for attention, you finally get your act together. Bah! Well, better late than never, I suppose.”

“What?” Scrooge snapped back, close to shaking a finger in the spirit’s face. “Now, look here Jacob—”

Interrupted by the study door slamming open, Scrooge veered his head to see Magda and Errol rushing in, both flanking a physician carrying a rather large leather case.

Constance was forced to move away as the physician examined her husband, wanting the man to have all the space he needed to spread out and examine the man she loved. Unable to sit still, she stood and began to pace about the room frantically, only for Magda to catch her and pull her into a tight embrace. Scrooge’s heart shattered as he watched his wife fold immediately, wrapping the older woman in an embrace that could put the squeeze of a python to shame.

By reflex, he attempted to reach out … only for his hand to fall right through her shoulders, over her heart, and exit her lower back.

His breath began to come in quick, frantic gasps. “Y-You say I’m not deceased, but…”

“You above all others should know that I am always right, Ebenezer,” Jacob assured. “Did I not speak the truth about the Three Spirits that night?”

“Y-Yes, but—”

“Then cease your blabbering and listen. Oh, and don’t worry, you can still sit down. If you’d like.”

Ebenezer was in no mood to act playful (or cheeky, for that matter) with the ghost of his dead business partner. The occasion was strange enough in its own right without the horrible addition of watching a physician inspect his body mere feet away from him. Oh, and the horribly distressing sound of Constance crying. It was hard enough to focus without having his nerves shredded to ruins by the sound of her sobs.

Too tired and confused to argue further, he slinked over to his desk chair, where he’d been sitting just a few minutes prior when he’d decided to mount the old stepladder for a top-shelf book and sank into the seat. He felt nothing, but he was … sitting.

“Please, speak some comfort to me,” Ebenezer begged his friend. “Please.”

“This time, I can oblige you,” Jacob said, much to the other man’s palpable relief. “You are alive, but just a step beyond unconsciousness. You see, when you awaken, a part of you will not be intact.”

“A part of me?” he parroted. His hands patted at his ghostly body. “A-Am I injured?”

“Not physically. Some of your memories will be gone. Recent memories.”

The man’s stomach dropped. “H-How recent?”

“You should have a misty recollection of your entire life, even in this form, but the memories that are crystal clear to you will be the ones that that your physical brain has forgotten. Those memories are manifested by you.”

His lack of understanding must have made him look truly pitiful, because Jacob reached out to lay a long-fingered hand on his shoulder. “What is the last vivid memory you have, my boy?”

Ebenezer shut his eyes and forced himself to think back. Everything from the past month was clear. He easily recalled accompanying Bob and Ethel to Tim’s monthly physician appointment to check on the condition of his leg. Another memory from a few days ago of Prudence nearly knocking over an entire cabinet of glass collectibles in an antique store came to mind as well. Somehow, he and Constance had caught every piece before anything had smashed onto the ground, though they’d had to work themselves into quite the tangle to accomplish it.

His mind continued to drift. A few months prior, he remembered Constance and him getting married in a semi-private ceremony at his home. Every detail came to him easily, as if the whole ceremony had happened mere minutes before. He recalled the radiance of her gold-accented gown, the feeling of kissing her as he cried tears of joy, and the taste of their vanilla wedding cake somehow even sweeter when tasted off her lips. Later that night, he remembered experiencing a new, and very physical, level of joy between the sheets with her. He’d later awakened to her nude form curled beside him, her glorious smile curving against the slope of his bare chest. Maker, her smile. He could never forget it. Could he?

No.

Ebenezer’s mind raced as he retraced the steps of their relationship. He recalled dates as if they’d happened yesterday. The picnic in the countryside where he’d proposed was vivid as a painting in his mind. Her excited ‘Yes!’ rang through his mind with the musicality, and perhaps the foreboding knell, of a bell.

“Do you…remember meeting your wife at all, old boy?” he asked. “That first day, when the butcher the street over invited her out of the cold?”

“Of course, I do, I—" he snapped, before the implication hit him. “No. Oh, no. Jacob, please.”

 When Ebenezer first stirred under the physician’s careful touch, Constance snapped out of her daze almost instantly. She flew to his side again, on her knees as he slowly worked to push himself upright.

“Easy now,” the physician said, one hand flattening against the man’s back as he helped usher him upright. “Nice and slow, Mr. Scrooge.”

“Augh, my head …” he groaned, his body folding up with agonizing slowness. Once mostly upright, his head almost instantly fell into his palm, a grimace slicing his face like a wound.

“Are you dizzy?” the doctor asked in concern.

“A bit, yes,” he croaked.

“That’s normal. Just take a moment to rally yourself.”

A few tense seconds passed before he dared to lift his head again. When he gathered the willpower to do so, he blinked slowly as he eyes adjusted to the light of the room. As he registered the wreath of spectators around the room, he let out an uneasy chuckle.  “M-My, what an audience.”

Prudence padded over to her beloved papa, nosing at his arm and whimpering. The man turned to her and scratched under her jaw, making sire to pay extra attention to the spot right under her collar he knew she liked. As predicted, her tail began thumping the floor almost instantly, and with enough force to practically knock the pictures off the wall.

Constance, tearing up from relief and joy, leaned forward to embrace him. “Oh, Ebenezer! I’m so relieved you’re okay!”

The man allowed the redhead to lean into him, but visibly tensed as she wrapped her arms around him. Constance noticed this, and reeled away immediately, fearing she’d hurt him. “I-I’m sorry! That was too much, wasn’t it? Oh, I’m so sorry. I-I was just relieved to see that you woke up.”

“I-I…” Ebenezer stuttered, staring at the woman with wide eyes. “I-I’m sorry.”

“Sorry? Whatever for?”

“Probably for being a bloody fool and using that old stepladder alone,” Magda chimed in, overturning her fist to gently knock on the top of his head. “You stubborn codger. I told you to toss that old thing in the trash. Would make nice kindling, too!”

While Magda laughed amicably at her jest (as did Errol, the ever-faithful husband he was), Ebenezer still stared back at Constance with troubled eyes. There was something searching in his gaze, his pupils darting from one feature of hers to another. After studying her face, he shifted his attention to her clothes, her hair … before eventually landing back on her Atlantic-colored eyes.

“Um, miss, please pardon me,” he started slowly, “Um, perhaps that fall was severe after all.”

Constance cocked her head. Miss? He hadn’t called her that in…well, since they’d first met.

The woman reached out in an attempt to comfort him, but saw him shift away. She did the same, apologizing again under her breath.

“I’m so dreadfully sorry, but … do we know each other?” Ebenezer asked, obviously realizing the question was a painful one to impose on her.

When her face faltered, collapsing from relief into shock, he added sheepishly:

“I-I don’t believe I know who you are.”

If anyone else in the chamber could hear the otherworldly wail that left Ebenezer's spirit, it did not show on their faces.

Gemstone Season 4 Spoiler: The Sweatshirt

Not this one, the one after the break, found in the wild, worn by a crew member

Clockwise from the bottom:

An alligator. Word is, somebody gets eaten

A cannon from the Civil War sequences

A monkey

A pirate like Errol Flynn -- notice the knife. There's a pole dance competition, so he could be a pole dancer.

A tree house, or rather a house in a tree like that of the Swiss Family Robinson, two stories, with deck

A skater. There was a casting call for skaters and skateboarders.

A jetpack. I imagine Baby Billy will be flying it.

'The Dream' sends warning to Crawford ahead of blockbuster 154lbs World Title showdown

Israil Madrimov  has warned  Terrance Crawford  that he has bitten off more than he can chew ahead of their hugely-anticipated clash for the WBA and WBO interim Super-Welterweight World Titles at the top of this Saturday's unmissable Riyadh Season Card at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, live worldwide on  DAZN PPV .    'The Dream' (10-0-1, 7 KOs) makes the first defence of his WBA crown against the toughest opposition possible after winning the belt in spectacular fashion in his last outing on the undercard of Anthony Joshua's brutal KO win over Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia earlier this year.     The Uzbek star took on Magomed Kurbanov for the vacant title and stopped the Russian in five rounds with a dominant performance to continue his impressive unbeaten run in the paid ranks, following a glittering amateur career.    Pound-for-pound star Crawford is attempting to create even more history as he bids to win a World Title in a fourth weight category after cleaning up at Lightweight, Super-Lightweight and Welterweight, but Madrimov is convinced that he is the man to shock the world and inflict a first career defeat on 'Bud'.    “My dream has always been to fight the best boxers and the pound-for-pound boxers," said  Madrimov . "When I received the news that I would be making my first World Title defence against Terence Crawford I was very happy; let’s go!

There is always a first guy, and I want to be the first guy to beat him and to break all of the records.    "He doesn’t have any weaknesses. I haven’t seen any of those, but I will try to discover some. I am very excited to get this opportunity to make a statement, and I will Inshallah. I’m not Errol Spence Jr. I am Israil Madrimov. This is my division.     "He's moving up in weight. I'm the World Champion here, and I don't think about him. I think about myself and I think about accomplishing my goals and winning this fight. It's a huge honour and opportunity for me to show my skills and I want to win this fight in style. And still!"    Crawford vs. Madrimov tops a blockbuster Los Angeles Riyadh Season Card this weekend, Mexico's  Isaac 'Pitbull' Cruz  (26-2-1, 18 KOs) defends his WBA Super-Lightweight World Title against  Jose Valenzuela  (13-2, 9 KOs), former Unified Heavyweight World Champion  Andy Ruiz Jr.  (35-2, 22 KOs) returns against New York's  Jarrell 'Big Baby' Miller  (26-1-1, 22 KOs), undefeated Heavyweight contender  Jared Anderson  (17-0, 15 KOs) collides with  Martin Bakole  (20-1, 15 KOs) in a an explosive match-up for the NABF and WBO International Titles, Cuba's  David Morrell  (10-0, 9 KOs) defends his WBA Light-Heavyweight World Title against  Radivoje 'Hot Rod' Kalajdzic  (29-2, 21 KOs), Olympic Lightweight Champion  Andy Cruz  (3-0, 1 KO)   continues his 135lbs campaign when he takes on Mexico’s  Antonio Moran  (30-6-1, 21 KOs) with the IBF International and WBA Continental Latin-American Titles on the line, unbeaten Super-Middleweights  Steve Nelson  (19-0, 15 KOs) and  Marcos Ramon Vazquez  (20-0-1, 10 KOs) meet over ten rounds and Saudi Arabian Welterweight talent  Ziyad Almaayouf  (5-0, 1 KO) fights in the US for the first time against Poland's  Michal Bulik  (6-7, 2 KOs).

O's Thump Twins 12-3.

Orioles 12 Twins 3 W-Kremer (1-0) L-Lopez (0-1)

The Minnesota Twins rallied late to tie the Phillies yesterday afternoon. They remained at home and hosted the Orioles today in Fort Myers. The Twins quickly loaded the bases in the first inning and Christian Vazquez hit a sacrifice fly to left to start the scoring. Baltimore answered in the second when Austin Hays led-off with a double to right. The next batter, Ramon Urias smacked a Pablo Lopez offering out to left-center for a two-run homer. This put the O's up 2-1 after two frames. Baltimore added on in the third as Cedric Mullins singled and Ryan O'Hearn walked. With two outs, Ramon Urias lined a run-scoring single to right to extend the Orioles lead. Jordan Westburg plated a run with a base hit of his own. Colton Cowser followed with a blast off a Michael Boyle pitch for a three-run home run. This put Baltimore up 7-1 in a blink of an eye. The Orioles started the fourth with three straight singles. With one out, Austin Hays hit a sac fly to center to put Baltimore up 8-1. The Orioles quickly loaded the bases in the seventh. Michael Perez plated a pair with a single and Coby Mayo doubled home another run. The rout was on as the Orioles extended their lead to ten. The Twins found some life in the bottom of the seventh. Jake Rucker smacked a Luis Gonzalez offering out to left-center for a solo homer. The Orioles got that run back as Errol Robinson lined a single to center. Daniel Johnson doubled him home as the O's lead went back to ten. The Twins didn't go away quietly as Mike Helman led-off the ninth with a walk. Alex Isola kept the game alive with a two-out single and Willie Joe Garry hit an RBI single to left. Jair Camargo flew out to end the game and the Orioles picked up the win today.

-Final Thoughts- Pablo Lopez got touched up a bit in his spring debut. He went two innings and allowed two runs on three hits with two strikeouts. Jhoan Duran gave up four runs in 2/3 of an inning and Michael Boyle gave up the homer to Colton Cowser. Justin Topa allowed a run in the fourth, Austin Schulfer fanned two in the fifth, and Jay Jackson struck out two in the seventh. Jordan Balazovic gave up three in the seventh with two strikeouts. Joe Gunkel allowed a run over two innings of work with two strikeouts. Eddie Julien led the way with two hits. The Twins hit 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position and eleven men on base. Tomorrow, Chris Paddack faces Spencer Strider as the Twins head up to North Port to play the Braves.

"Buck and the Preacher" (1972) was a western film starring Sidney Poitier in his directional debut. Co-produced by Poitier's E & R Productions and Belafonte Enterprises, the film also stars Harry Belafonte, Ruby Dee, James McEachin, Clarence Muse, and Cameron Mitchell. Ernest Kinoy and Drake Walker are responsible for the story and screenplay, and Columbia Pictures distributed the movie. Black western movies have been a part of cinema since the early 1920s. Norman Studios (a.k.a Norman Film Manufacturing Company) introduced black westerns with their first production, "The Bull-Dogger," released in 1921, starring famed cowboy and rodeo performer Bill Pickett. Throughout the silent era of the 1920s, there were several Black cowboy movies produced. Other films included "The Crimson Skull" (1922), "The Flaming Crises" (1924), "A Chocolate Cowboy" (1925), and "Black Gold" (1928). Unfortunately, all the films mentioned are lost, damaged, or destroyed. However, a rebirth of the genre emerged in 1937 with Herbet Jefferies in "Harlem on the Prairie." Three additional films followed after that release, with Spencer Williams assisting with the writing and producing of several movies. In the 1940s, the production of black cowboy movies declined. However, in 1948 the first Race film and black western to receive technicolor treatment was "No Time for Romance." In the 1950s and 60s, black westerns ceased. While black actors appeared in cowboy movies as supporting characters, filmmakers or studios did not produce black cowboy movies until "Buck and the Preacher" in 1972. The reappearance of this genre in Hollywood aligned with the newfound attitudes filmmakers were expressing. Most of the black cowboy movies in the 30s and 40s were musicals. However, in the 70s, the cowboys fought back against the white man. Poitier and Belafonte's character helps a group of freed enslaved people travel west to establish a new settlement. However, bounty hunters track down these groups, killing members and burning their possessions, but this time the black cowboys seek retribution. This film was a great western with a distinguished cast. The storytelling was excellent, and it was a trendsetting movie. For example, Fred Williamson starred in the "N***er Charley" trilogy in '72, '73, and '75 as an escaped enslaved person. Max Julien and Vonetta McGee starred in "Thomasine and Bushrod," in 1974, adapted from "Bonnie and Clyde." And Fred Williamson, Jim Brown, and Jim Kelly appeared in "Take a Hard Ride" in 1975. Jim Kelly was a black kung-fu cowboy. I highly recommend "Buck and the Preacher" for viewing. Many layers exist in the movie and are worthy of discussion. Directors: Sidney Poitier, Joseph Sargent (uncredited) Writers: Ernest Kinoy (screenplay), Drake Walker (story) Starring Sidney Poitier, Harry Belafonte, Ruby Dee, Cameron Mitchell, Denny Miller, Nita Talbot, John Kelly, Tony Brubaker, Bobby Johnson, James McEachin, Clarence Muse, Lynn Hamilton, Doug Johnson, Errol John, Kenneth Menard, Pamela Jones, Drake Walker, Dennis Hines, Fred Waugh, Bill Shannon, Enrique Lucero, Julie Robinson, José Carlos Ruiz, Ron Fletcher Storyline Following the end of the Civil War, soldier-turned-trail-guide Buck (Sidney Poitier) made a living by helping formerly enslaved people find settlements in the West. Along the way, a con artist, the Preacher (Harry Belafonte), joins the group and continuously clashes with Buck. But when a gang of bounty hunters, led by the fiendish Deshay (Cameron Mitchell), attempts to round up the formerly enslaved people to bring them back to Louisiana, the two put aside their differences to fight a common enemy. https://www.daarac.ngo https://www.daaracarchive.org/.../buck-and-preacher-1972...

Julie Doing “Stuff” With Famous People (3)

These two sure seemed to grab meals together frequently. Julie and Errol Flynn pictured above at the Warner Brothers Commissary.

And the pair is pictured above eating at a restaurant together. Looks like Julie smoked Lucky Strikes. Did EVERYONE smoke back then??

Robbe, Julie’s wife, is happily sandwiched by her husband and actor, Francis Lederer at a movie premiere in 1939.

Cofounders, Bette Davis and Julie at the Hollywood Canteen. Julie keeps the conversation light while Bette looks like she is seriously contemplating the news.

The tone is switched for the two during a planning session for the Canteen.

Lana Turner and Julie seem to begrudgingly turn to see who is calling them.

Milton Berle and Julie likely up to no good and caught on film in the middle of whatever they were up to.

Julie, Humphrey Bogart and Edward G. Robinson gather with others in 1944 for the Committee to Re-Elect Franklin Delano Roosevelt to an unprecedented fourth term as U.S. President. FDR served from March 4, 1933 – April 12, 1945. The fourth term of his presidency ended with his death. He remains the only president to serve for more than two terms.

Julie chats between scenes with Leon Ames and Cecil Kellaway during the filming of THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE. Zoom in to see Julie’s heels to help give him a few inches since he was only about 5’ 7”. And—how about that pipe?
