MY RECENT TV APPEARANCE NOMINATED FOR A RONDO AWARD!
The annual Rondo Hatton Award nominations were announced early this morning, and I’m thrilled to see that my recent appearance on New Jersey Public Television’s “Classic Movies with Ron Maccloskey” concerning “King Kong” has been nominated for “Best Event of the Year” under the heading of “Talking Kong.” To vote for my appearance, just send your name and choice to taraco@aol.com, along with my thanks and gratitude.
“KING KONG” … WILLIS H. O’BRIEN … RAY HARRYHAUSEN: EXPLORING THE CULTURAL INFLUENCE AND LEGACY OF A “MONSTROUS” MOTION PICTURE CLASSIC!
I had an opportunity quite recently to sit down once more with Host, Actor, Comedian, and Writer Ron MacCloskey for his Emmy Award Winning Public Television Series, “Classic Movies with Ron MacCloskey.”
Ron is the writer and producer of the new feature length documentary motion picture, “Boris Karloff: The Man Behind The Monster,” now playing in theaters all across the globe.
For this Halloween themed episode of the popular program, however, we explored the cultural significance, history, and legacy of the most famous “Monster” of them all … King Kong … and his nearly ninety year influence on gorilla films of all shapes and sizes, as well as his career defining impact on the lives and reign of Stop Motion Animation legends, Willis H. O’Brien and Ray Harryhausen.
Our spirited conversation both precedes and follows the film segment. Simply click on the projector below in order to screen the program.
Long Live The “King” … VOTE RONDO!
