Ron Walsh and Alex Sheafe


A couple of trade ads here offer the info that Ron Walsh, before he replaced Alex Stevens as credited director, was Production Manager. Interesting to note that LADY J was here listed as a "big release" and yet remained completely unreleased. 

Also of note above is that the cast list includes Alex Sheafe. He went on to a long career in TV soaps starting the year LET'S GO FOR BROKE was made but he does not appear to be in the final cut. His name appears nowhere in the film's final credits.

Cold Case


Just found out that both of the detectives who had worked so long on the Christa Helm murder case have now retired and no new investigators are currently assigned to the Cold Case.

Hollywoodland Unsolved with Ansley Gordon

Found a new, recent, Christa Podcast. Rather than just lifting it as others have, this one actually credits my blog research as well as my original online article with John O'Dowd and both the CBS and Oxygen documentaries. I even get namechecked in the podcast itself. Repeats some of the mistakes we made, though. Still, a good summation.
