Happy New Year!
I intend to change the blog this year as for the past
five + years I’ve posted special birthday celebrations in five year increments
but have gone through the entire list of birthdays that I have in my database
and even duplicated some in the past six months. So, I’ve decided to post a
list of birthdays daily and highlight with a photo any special birthday
celebrations.
I will also start to post alternating film title posts
with ‘Who Are Those Guys/Gals?’ postings. Since I am almost through the entire
list of films in the database, I will continue on with TV films and series.
When that is completed I will post documentaries. When new films come to light
or are released I will post them so the blog will continue to be filled with
plenty of material.
I want to thank all of you readers and posters who have
made appropriate comments and as I’ve stated before, the purpose of the blog is
to get it right and I appreciate all the corrections, additions and questions
relating to the daily posts.
The genre is far from dead and over the last few years
has seen a resurgence of interest that I haven’t seen since the early days of
VCRs. There have been more DVD film and CD releases than I could ever have
imagined. The Euro-western has found a new cult following and is even being
respected by mainstream filmmakers and critics.
Since we celebrated the 50th anniversary of
“Fistful of Dollars” the past summer it is only natural that we will be losing
more and more of the remaining stars of the genre, their supporting and character
actors and crew members who made these remarkable films. I hope you continue
the ride along the trail as continue the search for more information and fun
all along the way.
I hope you all have a happy, healthy and prosperous 2015.
Gracias,
Tom Betts
