ELLEN DREW: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH (069) Whether playing the sweet girl next door or the world-weary casino boss's moll, ELLEN DREW was an incredibly versatile leading lady who was a major star in the 1940s and 50s. She made a career of playing a wide range of roles in various genres — from Westerns to comedies to dramas to horror movies. She was nicknamed “The Candy Store Cinderella” because she was discovered scooping ice cream in a candy store on Hollywood Boulevard. And who do you think discovered her? You'll be quite surprised to find out. In this week's episode, we discuss our Star of the Month, ELLEN DREW.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Character Actors in Horror and Science Fiction Films, 1930-1960, (2014), by Laurence Raw; "Ellen Drew — The Private Life of Ellen Drew,” glamourgirlsofthesilverscreen.com; “Hollywood's Forgotten Daughters,” January 1986, by Anthony Cassa, Hollywood Studio Magazine; “Ellen Drew - Cinderellen,” January 2002, by Jeff Gordon, Classic Images magazine; “Ellen Drew, 89, Film and TV Actress Rose Through Ranks in Hollywood,” December 6, 2003, Los Angeles Times; TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; IBDB.com; Wikipedia.com; RogerEbert.com; Movies Mentioned:  Christmas in July  (1940), starring Dick Powell & Ellen Drew; Johnny O'Clock (1947), starring Dick Powell, Evelyn Keyes, Thomas Gomez, & Ellen Drew; Hollywood Boulevard (1936), starring Marsha Hunt & Robert Cummings; The Big Broadcast of 1937 (1936), starring Jack Benny, George Burns, & Gracie Allen; Make Way For Tomorrow (1937), staring Victor Moore & Beulah Bondi; Gone With The Wind (1939), starring Vivien Leigh & Clark Gable; Sing, You Sinners (1938), starring Bing Crosby, Fred MacMurray, & Ellen Drew; If I Were King (1938), starring Ronald Colman, Basil Rathbone, Frances Dee, & Ellen Drew; The Lady's From Kentucky (1939), staring George Raft & Ellen Drew; Geronimo (1939), starring Preston Foster; The Gracie Allen Murder Case (1939), starring Gracie Allen; French Without Tears (1940), starring Ray Milland & Ellen Drew; Buck Benny Rides Again (1940), starring Jack Benny; The Mad Doctor (1941), starring Basil Rathbone; The Monster and the Girl (1941), starring Paul Lukas & Philip Terry; Isle of the Dead (1945), starring Boris Karloff; Our Wife (1941), starring Melvyn Douglas, Ruth Hussey, & Ellen Drew; The Night of January 16th (1941), starring Preston Foster; Reaching For The Sun (1941), starring Joel McCrea & Ellen Drew; The Remarkable Andrew (1942), starring William Holden, Brian Donlevy, & Ellen Drew; My Favorite Spy (1942), starring Kay Kyser & Jane Wyman; Night Plane to Chungking (1942), starring Preston Foster & Ellen Drew; And The Angels Sing (1944), starring Dorothy Lamour, Fred MacMurray, & Betty Hutton; Strange Confession (1944), starring Jean Gabin; That's My Baby (1944), starring Richard Arlen & Ellen Drew; Dark Mountain (1944), starring Robert Lowery & Ellen Drew; China Sky (1945), starring Randolph Scott; The Swordsmen (1948), starring Larry Parks & Ellen Drew; The Man from Colorado (1949), starring William Holden & Glenn Ford; The Crocked Way (1949), starring John Payne, Sonny Tufts, & Ellen Drew; Stars In My Crown (1950), staring Joel McCrea & Ellen Drew; Cargo to Capetown (1950), starring Broderick Crawford & John Ireland; The Great Missouri Raid (1950), starring Wendell Corey; Man In The Saddle (1951), staring Randolph Scott & Joan Leslie; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

EPISODE 44 - "THERESA HARRIS: HOW OLD HOLLYWOOD STOPPED HER STAR FROM RISING" - 07/15/2024 ** This episode is sponsored brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/BENEATH and get on your way to being your best self.” ** When THERESA HARRIS appears on screen, you cannot take your eyes off of her. Beautiful, talented, and a skilled singer and dancer, she lights up any scene she's in. Despite appearing in over 100 films, she rarely received screen credit and most often played a maid, waitress, or other types of domestic servant. Her parts were small, but her charisma and presence on screen were enormous! As a black woman in the early days of Hollywood, she was limited in the roles she could perform by the restrictive Hayes Code of 1934 and the horrible Jim Crow laws of the South. Still, she is a welcome presence in so many classic films. This week, we look at the extraordinary life and career of the talented THERESA HARRIS.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: “Theresa Harris, Credited and Uncredited in Over 100 Films,” March 28, 2024, by Herb Boyd, New York Amsterdam News; “Just a Maid in Movies, But Not Forgotten,” April 21, 2011, by Manohla Dargis, The New York Times; “The Underrated Charms of Theresa Harris,” July 11, 2020, by Constance Cherise, TCM.com; “Theresa Harris: Television and Film Actress of the 1930s,” August 18, 2023, by Jae Jones, BackThen.com; “Actress Theresa Harris Hollywood Vixen Turned Servant,”September 2, 2011, by Veronica Wells, Madamenoire; IMDBPro.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Thunderbolt (1929), starring Fay Wray and George Brent; Hold Your Man (1932), starring Jean Harlow and Clark Gable; Baby Face (1933), starring Barbara Stanwyck and George Brent; Professional Sweetheart (1933), starring Ginger Rogers, Norman Foster, and Zasu Pitts; Horse Feathers (1932), starring The Marx Brothers and Thelma Todd; Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933), starring Joan Blondell, Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler, and Ginger Rogers; Morning Glory (1933), starring Katharine Hepburn and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr; Flying Down to Rio (1933), starring Delores Del Rio, Gene Raymond, Ginger Rogers, and Fred Astaire; Broadway Melody of 1936 (1935), starring Jack Benny and Eleanor Powell; Banjo On My Knee (1936), starring Barbara Stanwyck and Joel McCrea; Bargain With Bullets (aka The Gangster's On The Loose) (1937), starring Ralph Cooper and Theresa Harris; Jezebel (1938), starring Bette Davis, Henry Fonda, and George Brent; Tell No Tales (1939), starring Melvyn Douglas and Louise Platt; Buck Benny Rides Again (1940), starring Jack Benny, Ellen Drew, Eddie “Rochester” Anderson, and Theresa Harris; What's Buzzin' Cousin?
