ANN MILLER at the PALACE

May 25, 1965

On May 25, 1965, Ann Miller received a telegram from Lucille Ball praising her performance on “The Hollywood Palace” on May 22, 1965. Miller was so surprised that she called Western Union to verify the telegram’s authenticity. 

“The Hollywood Palace” was an hour-long television variety show that aired from 1964 to 1970. It was staged at the Hollywood Playhouse on Vine Street. Desi Arnaz Jr. appeared on the show with Dino, Desi & Billy in 1964 and 1968.

This episode was recorded on Friday, April 23, 1965. 

This was Miller’s fourth appearance on the program. She performed “Trapped in a Web of Love” and “Won’t You Come Home Bill Bailey” with a leg injury, defying a doctor who told her she needed to stay in bed. She asked Bob Mackie to prepare a special set of tights that would help her dance on her injured leg. 

The costume was auctioned off in 2009 fetching more than $1,200. 

Miller had appeared with Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz in their 1939 film Too Many Girls. 

Ball had several reasons to watch that evening’s episode of “Hollywood Palace”.  In addition to Miller, the show was hosted by Tennessee Ernie Ford, who had appeared three times on “I Love Lucy” and would go on to make guest star appearances on “The Lucy Show” in 1967 and “Here’s Lucy” in 1969. In return, Ball also appeared on his television specials. 

Guests included Edie Adams, who appeared on the very last episode of “The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour” in April 1960. She went on to appear in a 1968 episode of “The Lucy Show.”  

Comedian Jack Carter was the best man at Lucy’s wedding to Gary Morton in 1961. A few weeks later he married Paula Stewart, who played Lucy’s sister Janie in Broadway’s Wildcat. He acted in “Lucy Sues Mooney” (TLS S6;E12) and directed two episodes of “Here’s Lucy.”

THE GOLDEN AGE TAROT - HOLLYWOOD AND COMIC BOOKS

Tarot Decks are a centuries old method of divination consisting of 78 cards – 22 in the Major Arcana and four sets of Houses, 14 cards each.  Recently there has been a surge of new moderns decks based on the films of Guillermo del Toro, Star Trek, Disney Villains and even TV shows such as Stranger Things and Supernatural. I got the idea to create a set celebrating the Golden Age of Comic Books (uses some illustrations I created a few years ago).  The deck also references the Golden Age of Hollywood as I have imaged “what if” superhero movie became popular in the 1940s. I’ve cast popular actors of the 1940s as superheroes from many different publishers.     

      I’ll be sharing two cards a day… with 78 cards in the deck, that will be 39 days for the complete set!

    First – here’s the design for the back of the cards, plus “The Fool” or in my case, “The Jester”

PLASTIC MAN Created By: Jack Cole 1st Appearance: Quality Comics - August, 1941 Publisher: Quality Comics Actor: Eddie Bracken (1915 - 2002) .

Diana Lynn, William Demarest, Betty Hutton, and Eddie Bracken in The Miracle of Morgan's Creek (Preston Sturges, 1943) Cast: Betty Hutton, Eddie Bracken, William Demarest, Diana Lynn, Porter Hall, Emory Parnell, Al Bridge, Julius Tannen, Victor Potel, Brian Donlevy, Akim Tamiroff. Screenplay: Preston Sturges. Cinematography: John F. Seitz. Art direction: Hans Dreier, Ernst Fegté. Film editing: Stuart Gilmore. Music: Charles Bradshaw, Leo Shuken. The Miracle of Morgan's Creek is one of the funniest films ever made, but it's my least favorite Preston Sturges movie. That's because it leans more heavily on wackiness than on wit. I have to admire how skillfully Sturges managed to hoodwink the censors -- could anyone else have managed to name a character, let alone one who mysteriously gets pregnant, Trudy Kockenlocker? The sheer audacity and the skill of the story's construction are breathtaking. But it's just a little too loud for my taste, which is partly the fault of casting Betty Hutton. Sturges was a director who could get astonishingly funny performances out of serious actresses like Barbara Stanwyck and Claudette Colbert, but casting the uninhibited Hutton as Trudy seems to kick the film up a notch too high. Still, the movie has one of my boyhood crushes, Diana Lynn, to bring a sly note to her role as Trudy's wisecracking kid sister, and every moment William Demarest is on the screen, steam coming out of his ears, is welcome.
