EPISODE 56 - “MARJORIE REYNOLDS: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” - 10/07/2024 Most film fanatics agree that after the Paramount Picture's holiday classic “Holiday Inn” (1942), actress MARJORIE REYNOLDS, who gave a star-turn as struggling actress Linda Mason who gets a break singing and dancing in the seasonal nightclub run by BING CROSBY, should have been a big star. However, for reasons not quite clear, she didn't rise into the stratosphere. While she had a very respectable and long career, she just didn't soar to the top, as expected. As our Star of the Month, we will take a look into Marjorie Reynolds' life and career and explore our theories on why “Holiday Inn” did not make her a major star.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Christmas In the Movies (2023), by Jeremy Arnold; Whatever Became of…10th Series (1986), by Richard Lamparski; My Heart Belongs (1976), by Mary Martin; Scarlet Fever (1977), by William Pratt (including the collection of Herb Bridges); The Film Lovers Companion (1997), by David Quinlan; Biography of Marjorie Reynolds, July 25, 1942, Paramount Pictures;  “Super Cinderella,” November 1942, by William Lynch value, Silver Screen magazine; “Marjorie's Horse Comes In,” November 7, 1942, by Kyle Crichton, Collier's Magazine; Versatility Pays Off for Marjorie Reynolds,” March 10, 1944, by Hedda Hopper, Los Angeles, Times; “Divorce Plans Discussed by Miss Reynolds,” July 23, 1951, by Hedda Hopper, Los Angeles, Times; “Marjorie Reynolds to Be Wed to Film Editor,” May 16, 1952, Los Angeles, Times; “Marjorie Reynolds Weds Film Editor,” May 18, 1953, The Sedalia Democrat (Missouri); “Marjorie Reynolds: Sixty Years in the Film Business,” April 1984, by Colin Briggs, Hollywood Studio Magazine; “Marjorie Reynolds, 79, Actress, In Classic Films and on Television,” February 16, 1997, The New York Times; TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; IBDB.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Holiday Inn (1942), starring Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire, Marjorie Reynolds, & Virginia Dale; Wine, Women, and Song (1933), starring Lilyan Tashman; Murder In Greenwich Village (1937), starring Richard Arlen & Fay Wray; Tex Rides With The Boy Scouts (1937), starring Tex Ritter; The Overland Express (1938), starring Buck Jones; Western Trails (1938), starring Bob Baker; Six Shootin' Sheriff (1938), starring Ken Maynard; Star Spangled Rhythm (1942), starring Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Dorothy Lamour, Veronica Lake, & Alan Ladd; Dixie (1943), starring Bing Crosby & Dorothy Lamour; Up In Mabel's Room (1944), starring Dennis O'Keefe & Gail Patrick; Ministry of Fear (1944), starring Ray Milland; Three Is A Family (1944), starring Charles Ruggles & Fay Bainter; Bring On The Girls (1945), starring Veronica Lake & Eddie Bracken; Monsieur Beaucaire (1946), starring Bob Hope & Joan Caulfield; The Time Of Their Lives (1946), starring Bud Abbott & Lou Costello; Meet Me On Broadway (1946), starring Fred Brady & Spring Byington; Heaven Only Knows (1947), Bob Cummings & Brian Donlevy; Badmen of Tombstone (1949), starring Barry Sullivan & Broderick Crawford; That Midnight Kiss (1949), starring Mario Lanza & Kathryn Grayson; The Great Jewel Robber (1950), starring David Brian; Home Town Story (1951), starring Jeffry Lynn, Alan Hale Jr, & Marilyn Monroe; Models, Inc (1952), starring Howard Duff & Coleen Gray; His Kind of Woman (1951), starring Robert Mitchum, Jane Russell, & Vincent Price; The Silent Witness (1962), starring Tristram Coffin & George Kennedy; Pearl (1978), starring Angie Dickinson, Dennis Weaver, & Robert Wagner; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

Revisiting a Dystopian Classic: “Brave New World” on Vintage Classic Radio's Sunday Night Playhouse This week, Vintage Classic Radio presents a striking rendition of Aldous Huxley's “Brave New World,” first aired on April 14th, 1947. This production, part of the CBS Radio Workshop, known as “radio's distinguished series to man's imagination,” offers a fascinating glimpse into experimental and varying genres of old-time radio, modeled after its predecessor, The Columbia Workshop, renowned for its groundbreaking writers and directors. The radio play stars Frank Lovejoy and Fay Bainter, and it is not just a mere adaptation but an experiential journey, faithfully echoing Huxley's famous novel. It features Huxley himself as the narrator, bringing an authoritative presence and interpreting his creation 25 years after its publication. Based in AF 632, six-hundred and 32 years after Ford, the tale unfolds in a dystopian future where science replaces nature, drugs replace morality, and total conformity replaces individuality. It is a stark representation of a future society that seems to tread the path of self-destruction. Huxley's “Brave New World” is a study and a warning of what the future may hold if caution is not exercised. As Huxley puts it, “The brave new world need not be our future; the choice, after all, is always in our own hands”. This dramatization, split into two enthralling half-hour parts, captures the essence of the book impeccably, making it as gripping as the original read. The musical score by Academy Award-winner Bernard Hermann, whose illustrious film credits include Psycho and Citizen Kane, enriches the experience. This radio play features intricate sound production, creating effects involving meticulous blending of various sounds, played backward with a little echo, to achieve the right atmospheric essence. Full Cast List: Aldous Huxley as Narrator Frank Lovejoy Fay Bainter Tune in to explore the depths of this dystopian classic and be sure to catch both parts of this enthralling series this Sunday night on Vintage Classic Radio.

A cat's scratch has the ability to turn young actresses into stars.  Yet, the handyman, who has a hatred of cats, believes the cat is evil.  Commentary on star Fay Bainter.  Plus, potassium chloride's effects on the body which was used as the death weapon tonight.

Fay Bainter made Hollywood history in 1938 when she became the first performer nominated for two acting Oscars in the same year - winning the Best Supporting Actress award for Jezebel. But before that, she was a Broadway star whose performances on the stage paved the way to her work on the big screen. We'll hear her in "The Lucky Lady" (originally aired on CBS on February 14, 1946) and "Life Ends at Midnight" (originally aired on CBS on May 8, 1948).

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes Dashiell M. Silva to discuss the 1938 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Bette Davis won for her performance in "Jezebel," beating Fay Bainter in "White Banners," Wendy Hiller in "Pygmalion," Norma Shearer in "Marie Antoinette," and Margaret Sullavan in "Three Comrades." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Davis. 0:00 - 9:26 - Introduction 9:27 - 25:41 - Fay Bainter 25:42 - 47:48 - Wendy Hiller 51:14 - 1:10:25 - Norma Shearer 1:10:26 - 1:25:15 - Margaret Sullavan 1:25:20 - 1:43:11 - Bette Davis 1:43:12 - 2:08:28 - Why Bette Davis won / Twitter questions 2:08:29 - 2:15:00 - Who was the runner-up?

This is a story of 24 hours in the life of a husband and wife and is as fresh and vital and true as when it was first played on Broadway and got the Pulitzer Prize. Fay Bainter was scheduled to play the wife but unfortunately was cut down with the flu so Ann Harding takes the lead part. When the Craig's neighbors are found murdered Mr Craig becomes a murder suspect. Mrs Craig is more concerned with her house and material possessions than her husband and her gold digging ways become her downfall. Duration: 43:59 Starring: Orson Welles, Ann Harding Broadcast Date: 10th March 1940

R-ACT Live! | 2014 Annual Holiday Radio Show - Three Wise Men & A Child Is Born   ABOUT THIS EPISODE On episode 6 of the TSVP RAdio Theater Podcast, we present R-ACT’s 2014 Annual Holiday Radio Show, Three Men & A Child Is Born, performed live at the Merrick Art Gallery in New Brighton, Pennsylvania. Cast and crew: Shantih Bianco, Eric McAnallen, Suzanne Weber, Conrad Bianco, Nick Ellefson, Steve Walsh, Leanne Condron (director), Mark Greg Murdoch, Janet Lynn Hutchinson, Tom Boyce, Valerie Ann, Bill Bruce, Rosanne Castronovo Robinson (host). Live sound, recording, and performance editing by The Social Voice Project. THREE MEN Narrator/Announcer: Steve Walsh; Ballantine (Australian Soldier): Conrad Bianco; Gascoigne (French Soldier): Eric McAnallen; Melvin (American Soldier): Mark Murdoch; Stationmaster: Tom Boyce; Shepherd: Steve Walsh Physician: Nick Ellefson Three Men (a.k.a., Uninhabited or Christmas Story 1918), by Wyllis Cooper. Originally aired 1935. A tale about a Christmas from the last war. That means World War 1. A train comes to a halt at a railroad station in France. Both Austrailian and French soldiers go on leave for the holidays. They compare notes on the similarities of each other’s armies, and the common experiences they have faced. They are joined by a American troop who is black. The three diverse troops enjoy moments of solidarity and marvel at the far reaches they had come from to be in this place together. In the post war days, the three carry souvenirs in their packs, and marvel at the stars. They turn in and dream as the train rushes through the night. Their deja vu at meeting before is explained as we peek into their dream of three other travellers who were bearing gifts, and following the star. A dramatization of the legend of the three wisemen ensues. Legend, because little is known about the wise men from scripture, and nearly all of the tale here is from tradition that surrounds their part in the Christmas story. As the wise men find the Christ child, the three soldiers awaken and compare notes about the dream they all seemed to have had.

Written in rhyming verse, the play relates the story of the birth of Christ through the eyes of an innkeeper and his wife. The drama was presented on television many times during the Golden Age of Television, on such anthologies as Actors Studio, Lux Video Theatre, General Electric Theater, and Kraft Television Theatre. Not seen on American television since 1956. This episode was recorded live on December 6, 2014 at Merrick Art Gallery, New Brighton, Pennsylvania. Audiography: Kevin Farkas/The Social Voice Project.

In October of 1934, "Lux Radio Theater" debuted in New York on NBC's Blue radio network. Presenting audio versions of popular Broadway plays, the show failed to garner an audience and soon ran out of material. After switching networks to CBS and moving to Hollywood, Lux found its true market. The show began featuring adaptations of popular films, performed by as many of the original stars as possible. With an endless supply of hit films scripts and an audience of more than 40 million, Lux enjoyed a prosperous run until the curtain fell in 1956.THIS EPISODE:Salute to the Marines from Lux Radio Theater aired November 8, 1943 starring Wallace Beery as Sgt. Maj. William Bailey and Fay Bainter as Jenny Bailey. Leatherneck, Wallace Beery, is back in uniform.
