• PL NEWMAN – DID HE HARBOR A SECRET? FEBARY 12, 2016 ADM DID YOU KNOW? 16  NOT MANY SUPERSTARS BEG THEIR REERS WH AN OUT AND OUT ‘LEMON’, BUT PL NEWMAN CERTALY DID. AFTER POPPG UP A DOZEN OR SO TV SERI BETWEEN 1949 AND 1954, WHEN THE TELEVISN DTRY WAS STILL FDG S FEET, HE LAND THE ROMANTIC LEAD A SANDALS AND TOGAS DRAMA LLED THE SILVER CHALICE (1954). AND VERY NEARLY SUNK HIS REER THERE AND THEN. EVEN HIS CHARACTER’S NAME, BASIL THE SCULPTOR, WAS AN EMBARRASSMENT. JAM DEAN AND HIS MANAGER HAD ALREADY REJECTED THE ROLE BEE THEY NSIRED THE SCRIPT TO BE BBISH. AND WAS. IT WAS BILLED AS, ‘THE MIGHTIT STORY OF TTH AND TEMPTATN EVER PRODUCED’. IT WASN’T. DURG THE SHOOT, JIMMY WANRED OVER OM THE SET OF EAST OF EN TO SEE HOW WAS GOG, MET NEWMAN’S -STAR PIER ANGELI, AND LOVE APPARENTLY BLOOMED ON THE SPOT. BUT NOT FOR LONG. HE WAS KILLED LS THAN A YEAR LATER AND PIER WAS HEARTBROKEN. ‘LOVE DIED A PORSCHE’, SHE TOLD IENDS.PIER ANGELI AND JAM DEAN ON THE TOWNTHE SILVER CHALICE WAS THE FAL FILM TO BE DIRECTED BY VICTOR SAVILLE, A MAN WHOSE DIRECTG REER HAD (SOMEHOW) LASTED FOR 42 FILMS, THE BT OF THEM BEG SOUTH RIDG (1938) AND GREEN DOLPH STREET (1947). THIS LAST EFFORT FORCED HIM TO RETIREMENT. IT WAS THAT BAD. IN FACT, WHEN WAS ABOUT TO BE SHOWN ON AMERIN TV NE YEARS LATER, NEWMAN TOOK OUT ADS THE HOLLYWOOD TRAS PAPERS APOLOGISG FOR HIS EPT PERFORMANCE , AND WARNG VIEWERS TO STEER CLEAR OF THE THG AT ALL STS. NOT UNEXPECTEDLY, THE ADS MERELY DREW AN ORDATE NUMBER OF VIEWERS TO TUNE OUT OF MORBID CURSY. I HAVE SAT THROUGH THE SILVER CHALICE OM BEGNG TO END, (I’M EXPECTG MY VICTORIA CROSS THE MAIL AT ANY MOMENT), AND BELIEVE ME IS A HARD SLOG, EVEN THE 115 MUTE CUT VERSN. THE PICTURE ORIGALLY RAN AN SUFFERABLE 142 MUT! TST ME, IF THIS FILM ON TV AGA AND YOU ARE NTEMPLATG WATCHG , TRY SLAMMG YOUR FGERS A KCHEN DRAW FOR 115 MUT STEAD. YOU WILL HAVE MORE FUN. THE GOOD NEWS, OF URSE, IS THAT NEWMAN’S REER WAS NOT STILL-BORN, AND HE WENT ON TO DO SOME GREAT THGS, NONE OF WHICH SAW HIM WH A THOAND OF A PAIR OF SANDALS OR A TOGA. PL WAS NOT ONE OF THOSE GUYS WHO MA THE SAME MISTAKE TWICE.HIS SEND MOVIE WAS MUCH BETTER. IN FACT TURNED HIM TO A STAR OVERNIGHT. ONCE AGA JAM DEAN WAS VOLVED, OR RATHER THE GHOST OF JAM DEAN, FOR HE HAD BEEN SET TO PLAY ROCKY GRAZIANO SOMEBODY UP THERE LIK ME UNTIL HIS ATH SEPTEMBER 1955 NECSATED A CHANGE OF PLANS. NEWMAN, YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED TO LEARN, WAS ALREADY 31 YEARS OLD BY THEN AND A NUMBER OF STUD EXECUTIV WERE AGAST HIM HERG THE ROLE. THEY FELT HE WAS TOO OLD FOR . OF URSE, SEVERAL OF THEM STILL ULD NOT ERASE OM THEIR MEMORI THE SILVER CHALICE AND HIS KNOBBLY KNE. THEY ALSO THOUGHT HE WOULD NOT BE BELIEVABLE PORTRAYG AN ITALIAN-AMERIN. COME TO THK OF , HE LOOKED ABOUT AS ITALIAN-AMERIN AS PAT BOONE, BUT HIS POWERFUL PERFORMANCE MANAGED TO PULL OFF.AS ROCKY GRAZIANO  SOMEBODY UP THERE LIK MENEWMAN WOULD ENJOY AN ILLTR REER LASTG OVER FIFTY YEARS. THE YEAR AFTER HE WAS GIVEN AN HONORARY AMY AWARD (1986) ‘ REGNN OF HIS MANY MEMORABLE AND PELLG SCREEN PERFORMANC AND FOR HIS PERSONAL TEGRY AND DITN TO HIS CRAFT’, HE FALLY WON AN OSR FOR REAL FOR THE COLOR OF MONEY. IN ALL, HE WAS NOMATED NE TIM FOR HIS ACTG, AND ONCE AS A DIRECTOR FOR RACHEL, RACHEL (1968).WH TOM CISE  THE COLOR OF MONEYNEWMAN WAS MARRIED TWICE AND HAD SIX CHILDREN, THREE TO EACH WIFE. HIS SEND MARRIAGE, TO ACTRS JOANNE WOODWARD, LASTED 50 YEARS UNTIL HIS ATH. IT HAS SCE E TO LIGHT THAT HE WAS KNOWN TO HAVE AFFAIRS ALONG THE WAY, SOMETHG THAT WAS NEVER PUBLICIZED TO ANY GREAT EXTENT. HIS LAST KNOWN RELATNSHIPS WERE WH ITALIAN ACTRS SYLVA KOSCA AND JOAN CRAWFORD, BOTH BACK 1967. HE ALSO HAD A BRIEF AFFAIR WH JOAN COLLS 1958 AND MYRNA LOY 1960. CRAWFORD, BY THE WAY, HAD SLEPT WH HIM A UPLE OF TIM DURG HIS FIRST MARRIAGE AS WELL.WH SYLVA KOSCA  THE SECRET WAR OF HARRY FRIGGNEWMAN WAS ONCE ASKED IF HE HAD EVER BEEN TEMPTED TO BE UNFAHFUL TO HIS WIFE JOANNE WOODWARD, TO WHICH HE FAMOLY REPLIED, ‘WHY GO OUT FOR HAMBURGER WHEN YOU’VE GOT STEAK AT HOME?’ THE EVER TACTLS CRAWFORD SNEERED AT HIS RPONSE: ‘WHAT A CLEVER THG TO SAY, BUT HOW TE IS ? FIRST, I THK WOODWARD IS HAMBURGER, NOT STEAK. AS FOR PL, HE D OUT EQUENTLY AND ON THE MOST SUCCULENT FILET MIGNON, OM WHAT I HEAR.’ THIS IS ALL ACRDG TO WRER DARW PORTER, THE FORMER NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR OF PLAYWRIGHT TENNSEE WILLIAMS AND SELF-PROCLAIMED IEND AND NFIDANTE OF NUMERO SHOW BS FIGUR BIG AND SMALL. HIS BOOK HAS DRAWN A LOT OF MENT AND SPECULATN, SO MIGHT BE WORTH LOOKG AT HERE. WE N CI FOR OURSELV HOW MUCH (IF ANY) OF IS TE.ACTRS SHELLEY WTERSPORTER’S REVELATNS APPEARED ONE OF HIS BOOKS 2009 AND ED QUE A STIR. FOR ONE THG, HE CLAIMED THAT SHELLEY WTERS TOLD HIM OF HAVG A THREOME WH NEWMAN AND MARLON BRANDO! SHELLEY PASSED ON 2006, SO SHE (LIKE NEWMAN AND BRANDO) N NEHER NFIRM NOR NY HIS STORY. INED, PORTER IS REFUL NOT TO CLU ANYONE STILL LIVG HIS TAL, SO HOW MUCH OF THE FOLLOWG ACTUALLY HAPPENED IS FOR THE REAR TO CI FOR HIS OR HERSELF. THIS IS WHAT MR. PORTER HAD TO WRE ABOUT PL NEWMAN’S LOVE LIFE:ROBERT STACKYOUNG MARLON BRANDONEWMAN’S FIRST SER LOVE AFFAIR ALLEGEDLY TOOK PLACE WHILE HE WAS THE US NAVY, AND WAS WH FUTURE ACTOR ROBERT STACK (ELLT NS NO LS)! WHILE AT LLEGE NEWMAN ALLEGEDLY VISED MARLON BRANDO BACKSTAGE WHERE THEY HAD A SEXUAL ENUNTER. THERE WERE FEMALE NQUTS AS WELL. DARW LISTS MARILYN MONROE, GRACE KELLY, PEGGY LEE, JUDY GARLAND, SAN HAYWARD, LANA TURNER, NATALIE WOOD, VIVIEN LEIGH AND TALLULAH BANKHEAD. BUT DON’T END THERE.

MISS RULE ALLEGEDLY TOLD PORTER THAT NEWMAN HAD SEVERE MAN CSH ROBERT WAGNER, REDFORD AND TOM CISE, BUT NONE WERE NSUMMATED.JANICE RULEJOHN DEREKBRANDON WIL  SHANEAND SHORTLY BEFORE HIS ATHPORTER MAK NO BON ABOUT NEWMAN’S BISEXUALY, CLAIMG HE ALSO HAD PASSNATE AFFAIRS WH JAM DEAN, TONY PERKS AND SAL MEO. THERE WAS ALSO AN TERMTENT AFFAIR WH JOHN DEREK THE SIXTI AND A THREE-YEAR RELATNSHIP WH FORMER CHILD STAR BRANDON WIL. HE PLAYED THE LTLE BOY SHANE, AND WOULD DIE YOUNG A R ACCINT 1972. PORTER’S ALLEGATNS MAY ALL BE TE. BUT THEY MAY ALSO BE A LOAD OF HOGWASH. SCE EVERY AFFAIR HE MENTNS VOLVE PARTICIPANTS WHO ARE NO LONGER WH AND, THEREFORE, UNABLE TO DISPUTE HIS RMATN, I WOULD PREFER TO RERVE JUDGMENT UNTIL SOMEONE LIVG NFIRMS SOME ASPECT OF HIS STORI. EVEN HIS SOURC ARE ALL AD; WILLIAMS, MCQUEEN, RULE AND WTERS. CONVENIENT. JOANNE WOODWARD WOULD KNOW, OF URSE, BUT SHE SEEMS MOST UNLIKELY TO DIGNIFY MR. PORTER’S BOOK BY MENTG EHER WAY.

I LET THIS PERSON BLATHER ON AND ON, AS THEY PUFFED UP THEIR FE FEATHERS. WHEN FALLY THE BLATHERG STOPPED, I ASKED ONLY ONE QUTN, “WELL, THEN WHY DO YOU PRONOUNCE ‘SCHOOL” WH THE ‘SK’ SOUND STEAD OF THE ‘SHH…” SOUND?” FEATHERS FLATTENED, NO MORE BLATHERG. ALSO LEARNED WHY SO MANY WORDS HAVE “EXTRA” LETTERS. WHEN FIRST VELOPG THE SPELLG OF THE LANGUAGE, THOSE WHO WERE DOG THE GATHERGS WERE PAID PER/LETTER. THE MORE LETTERS ADD, THE MORE YOU WERE PAID. SO, WAS MUCH TO THEIR ADVANTAGE TO HAVE A MORE LETTERS WORDS… SO MUCH FOR THE EXTRA LETTERS OUR LANGUAGE.REPLY ALAN ROYLE MARCH 8, 2017 AT 2:01 PM THANK YOU FOR THAT RMATN, CHARMIE.

I AM TORN BETWEEN SPELLG AS I HAVE ALL MY LIFE, THE ENGLISH WAY, AND AT THE SAME TIME AWARE THAT MOST OF MY BOOK SAL (AND SE REARS I IMAGE) ARE AMERIN. PERSONALLY, I PREFER THE AMERIN WAY BEE IS EASIER. I MEAN, WHY TOSS A PLETELY UNNCSARY ‘U’ TO ‘FAVOURE’ OR ‘HARBOUR’ OR ‘LOUR’,WHEN ALL THREE WORDS READ AND SOUND LIKE ‘FAVORE’, ‘HARBOR’ AND ‘LOR’?

ALLEN FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 5:36 PM I’M GLAD TO READ THAT YOU QUTN DARW PORTER. ONE OF PORTER’S CRICISMS IS THAT HE CLAIMS SOURC FOR HIS , BUT FAILS TO CE, AND QUOT SUPPOSEDLY “ACTUAL” NVERSATNS BETWEEN LOVERS, ETC. [BOGART, AGA, BUT PROBABLY OTHER BOOKS AS WELL.] MY GUS IS THAT HE RECEIV ., AND CREAT SCENARS AROUND THIS. ANYWAY, I FD TIROME, AND DON’T RE TO KNOW ALL THAT STUFF ABOUT MOST OF THE STARS. SOMETIME, DURG THE 50’S, OR LATER? MY MOTHER TOLD ME THAT ROCK HUDSON HAD A “BEARD”, AND DID I KNOW WHAT THAT WAS? SHE EXPLAED. IF SHE READ AT THE BETY PARLOR, WASN’T A SECRET DURG THAT TIME. I GATHER THAT MOST REVIEWERS OF PORTER, HAVE READ MANY, MANY OF HIS BOOKS.REPLY ALAN ROYLE FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 8:27 PM PERSONALLY, I ULD NOT RE LS ABOUT ANYONE’S SEXUAL PREFERENC, BUT THOSE WHO PURCHASE MY BOOKS AND LISTEN TO MY RAD TERVIEWS ARE APPARENTLY FASCATED BY . DATA I HAVE KNOWN ABOUT FOR S IS NEWS TO A LOT OF FANS WHO DO NOT READ AS WILY AS I DO, SO I LLECT AND LLATE WHAT I BELIEVE IS TERTG (EVEN TILLATG TO SOME) AND WRE ABOUT OR DISCS DURG MY ONCE A MONTH RAD SPOT. AS FOR ROCK HUDSON, I DISTCTLY RELL BEG TOLD BY 9 YEAR-OLDS MY CLASS AT SCHOOL ( 1956) THAT HE HAD TERM ‘GAY’ WAS NOT E THEN – NOT ATRALIA ANYWAY. I DID NOT BELIEVE THEM AT THE TIME, BUT IF THAT WAS BEG SAID FREMANTLE, WTERN ATRALIA WAY BACK THEN, I IMAGE WAS MON KNOWLEDGE HOLLYWOOD LONG BEFORE THAT.I QUE ENJOY UNEARTHG TAILS ABOUT MOVIE STARS THAT REVEAL THEM TO BE JT LIKE MOST ORDARY FOLK. NOBODY IS PERFECT, YET STUDS WENT TO A GREAT AL OF TROUBLE TO IMBUE THEIR STARS WH AN RA OF PERFECTN THAT THEY SIMPLY DID NOT SERVE. ACTG, AFTER ALL, IS JT A JOB LIKE ANY OTHER. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT A GREAT MANY MORE OF S PRACTNERS ARE EXTRAORDARILY ATTRACTIVE MEN AND WOMEN.I THK I MIGHT POST THE FIRST PART OF MY ’50 FAVOURE MOVI OF ALL TIME’ ON SUNDAY. DO YOU THK THAT MIGHT BE OF TERT OR NOT? I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR OPN, SHEILA.REPLY S. ALLEN FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 3:11 PM YOU OUGHT TO READ REVIEWS OM THOSE WHO HAVE READ HIS TWO BOOKS ON BOGART! TOO MUCH “MASHED POTATO AND GRAVY”, OM SELECTNS I READ ON TER. I HAVE THEORY THAT THERE MAY BE SOME TTH TO WHAT HE WR HE MAY ATTRACT THOSE W/ MORE . [GAYS] MORE FORTABLE TALKG W/ HIM, THAN SO LLED MA STREAM BGRAPHERS. THERE’S NO WAY TO KNOW W/ BS. I WISH BOGART HAD WRTEN HIS TOBGRAPHY.REPLY ALAN ROYLE FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 4:46 PM THE STUDS HAD THEIR PUBLICY PEOPLE CHURN OUT A LOAD OF DSWALLOP ABOUT THEIR STARS, AND THEY DID SO FOR ABOUT 60 YEARS. NOW WE HAVE ALL KDS OF ORDARY PEOPLE VOLVED THE DTRY DURG THE STUD SYSTEM, WHO ARE WRG THEIR MEMOIRS REGARDG THOSE DAYS. SOME OF THE PEOPLE ARE PROBABLY OUT TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK, AND DARW PORTER MAY VERY WELL BE GUILTY OF THAT. HOWEVER, HE MIGHT ALSO BE TELLG THE TTH. I SUPPOSE WHAT REALLY HAPPENED LI SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE TWO.

A LIST OF JAM DEAN’S (ALLEGED) GAY LOVERS

The wrer also claims Newman and Jam Dean had a gay romance.

Publicly, he sisted that he loathed homosexuals, yet he often went to bed wh them, pecially if they were bikers or race r drivers. It seems like the time is ripe for a renaissance of "Vidalism, " and the new documentary, Gore Vidal: Uned Stat of Amnia, may help te an entirely new generatn about the 20th century's pre-ement public tellectual--who always refed to intify as gay, although he was a proud lover of men. On never que beg at odds wh the gay movement and feelg out of time wh marriage equaly:I thk he felt that was a fight he fought at a different pot his life.

SXSW: TAB HUNTER OPENS UP ABOUT LIFE AS A CLOSETED GAY STAR DURG HOLLYWOOD’S GOLN AGE

There have long been mors about Pl Newman’s sexualy, pecially after a quote attributed to him surfaced sayg, “I’m a supporter of gay rights. From the time I was a kid, I have never been able to unrstand attacks upon the gay muny. Ever sce the silent film era, Hollywood beefke photos have tillated both female and gay male fans.

PL NEWMAN – DID HE HARBOR A SECRET? FEBARY 12, 2016 ADM DID YOU KNOW? 16  NOT MANY SUPERSTARS BEG THEIR REERS WH AN OUT AND OUT ‘LEMON’, BUT PL NEWMAN CERTALY DID. AFTER POPPG UP A DOZEN OR SO TV SERI BETWEEN 1949 AND 1954, WHEN THE TELEVISN DTRY WAS STILL FDG S FEET, HE LAND THE ROMANTIC LEAD A SANDALS AND TOGAS DRAMA LLED THE SILVER CHALICE (1954). AND VERY NEARLY SUNK HIS REER THERE AND THEN. EVEN HIS CHARACTER’S NAME, BASIL THE SCULPTOR, WAS AN EMBARRASSMENT. JAM DEAN AND HIS MANAGER HAD ALREADY REJECTED THE ROLE BEE THEY NSIRED THE SCRIPT TO BE BBISH. AND WAS. IT WAS BILLED AS, ‘THE MIGHTIT STORY OF TTH AND TEMPTATN EVER PRODUCED’. IT WASN’T. DURG THE SHOOT, JIMMY WANRED OVER OM THE SET OF EAST OF EN TO SEE HOW WAS GOG, MET NEWMAN’S -STAR PIER ANGELI, AND LOVE APPARENTLY BLOOMED ON THE SPOT. BUT NOT FOR LONG. HE WAS KILLED LS THAN A YEAR LATER AND PIER WAS HEARTBROKEN. ‘LOVE DIED A PORSCHE’, SHE TOLD IENDS.PIER ANGELI AND JAM DEAN ON THE TOWNTHE SILVER CHALICE WAS THE FAL FILM TO BE DIRECTED BY VICTOR SAVILLE, A MAN WHOSE DIRECTG REER HAD (SOMEHOW) LASTED FOR 42 FILMS, THE BT OF THEM BEG SOUTH RIDG (1938) AND GREEN DOLPH STREET (1947). THIS LAST EFFORT FORCED HIM TO RETIREMENT. IT WAS THAT BAD. IN FACT, WHEN WAS ABOUT TO BE SHOWN ON AMERIN TV NE YEARS LATER, NEWMAN TOOK OUT ADS THE HOLLYWOOD TRAS PAPERS APOLOGISG FOR HIS EPT PERFORMANCE , AND WARNG VIEWERS TO STEER CLEAR OF THE THG AT ALL STS. NOT UNEXPECTEDLY, THE ADS MERELY DREW AN ORDATE NUMBER OF VIEWERS TO TUNE OUT OF MORBID CURSY. I HAVE SAT THROUGH THE SILVER CHALICE OM BEGNG TO END, (I’M EXPECTG MY VICTORIA CROSS THE MAIL AT ANY MOMENT), AND BELIEVE ME IS A HARD SLOG, EVEN THE 115 MUTE CUT VERSN. THE PICTURE ORIGALLY RAN AN SUFFERABLE 142 MUT! TST ME, IF THIS FILM ON TV AGA AND YOU ARE NTEMPLATG WATCHG , TRY SLAMMG YOUR FGERS A KCHEN DRAW FOR 115 MUT STEAD. YOU WILL HAVE MORE FUN. THE GOOD NEWS, OF URSE, IS THAT NEWMAN’S REER WAS NOT STILL-BORN, AND HE WENT ON TO DO SOME GREAT THGS, NONE OF WHICH SAW HIM WH A THOAND OF A PAIR OF SANDALS OR A TOGA. PL WAS NOT ONE OF THOSE GUYS WHO MA THE SAME MISTAKE TWICE.HIS SEND MOVIE WAS MUCH BETTER. IN FACT TURNED HIM TO A STAR OVERNIGHT. ONCE AGA JAM DEAN WAS VOLVED, OR RATHER THE GHOST OF JAM DEAN, FOR HE HAD BEEN SET TO PLAY ROCKY GRAZIANO SOMEBODY UP THERE LIK ME UNTIL HIS ATH SEPTEMBER 1955 NECSATED A CHANGE OF PLANS. NEWMAN, YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED TO LEARN, WAS ALREADY 31 YEARS OLD BY THEN AND A NUMBER OF STUD EXECUTIV WERE AGAST HIM HERG THE ROLE. THEY FELT HE WAS TOO OLD FOR . OF URSE, SEVERAL OF THEM STILL ULD NOT ERASE OM THEIR MEMORI THE SILVER CHALICE AND HIS KNOBBLY KNE. THEY ALSO THOUGHT HE WOULD NOT BE BELIEVABLE PORTRAYG AN ITALIAN-AMERIN. COME TO THK OF , HE LOOKED ABOUT AS ITALIAN-AMERIN AS PAT BOONE, BUT HIS POWERFUL PERFORMANCE MANAGED TO PULL OFF.AS ROCKY GRAZIANO  SOMEBODY UP THERE LIK MENEWMAN WOULD ENJOY AN ILLTR REER LASTG OVER FIFTY YEARS. THE YEAR AFTER HE WAS GIVEN AN HONORARY AMY AWARD (1986) ‘ REGNN OF HIS MANY MEMORABLE AND PELLG SCREEN PERFORMANC AND FOR HIS PERSONAL TEGRY AND DITN TO HIS CRAFT’, HE FALLY WON AN OSR FOR REAL FOR THE COLOR OF MONEY. IN ALL, HE WAS NOMATED NE TIM FOR HIS ACTG, AND ONCE AS A DIRECTOR FOR RACHEL, RACHEL (1968).WH TOM CISE  THE COLOR OF MONEYNEWMAN WAS MARRIED TWICE AND HAD SIX CHILDREN, THREE TO EACH WIFE. HIS SEND MARRIAGE, TO ACTRS JOANNE WOODWARD, LASTED 50 YEARS UNTIL HIS ATH. IT HAS SCE E TO LIGHT THAT HE WAS KNOWN TO HAVE AFFAIRS ALONG THE WAY, SOMETHG THAT WAS NEVER PUBLICIZED TO ANY GREAT EXTENT. HIS LAST KNOWN RELATNSHIPS WERE WH ITALIAN ACTRS SYLVA KOSCA AND JOAN CRAWFORD, BOTH BACK 1967. HE ALSO HAD A BRIEF AFFAIR WH JOAN COLLS 1958 AND MYRNA LOY 1960. CRAWFORD, BY THE WAY, HAD SLEPT WH HIM A UPLE OF TIM DURG HIS FIRST MARRIAGE AS WELL.WH SYLVA KOSCA  THE SECRET WAR OF HARRY FRIGGNEWMAN WAS ONCE ASKED IF HE HAD EVER BEEN TEMPTED TO BE UNFAHFUL TO HIS WIFE JOANNE WOODWARD, TO WHICH HE FAMOLY REPLIED, ‘WHY GO OUT FOR HAMBURGER WHEN YOU’VE GOT STEAK AT HOME?’ THE EVER TACTLS CRAWFORD SNEERED AT HIS RPONSE: ‘WHAT A CLEVER THG TO SAY, BUT HOW TE IS ? FIRST, I THK WOODWARD IS HAMBURGER, NOT STEAK. AS FOR PL, HE D OUT EQUENTLY AND ON THE MOST SUCCULENT FILET MIGNON, OM WHAT I HEAR.’ THIS IS ALL ACRDG TO WRER DARW PORTER, THE FORMER NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR OF PLAYWRIGHT TENNSEE WILLIAMS AND SELF-PROCLAIMED IEND AND NFIDANTE OF NUMERO SHOW BS FIGUR BIG AND SMALL. HIS BOOK HAS DRAWN A LOT OF MENT AND SPECULATN, SO MIGHT BE WORTH LOOKG AT HERE. WE N CI FOR OURSELV HOW MUCH (IF ANY) OF IS TE.ACTRS SHELLEY WTERSPORTER’S REVELATNS APPEARED ONE OF HIS BOOKS 2009 AND ED QUE A STIR. FOR ONE THG, HE CLAIMED THAT SHELLEY WTERS TOLD HIM OF HAVG A THREOME WH NEWMAN AND MARLON BRANDO! SHELLEY PASSED ON 2006, SO SHE (LIKE NEWMAN AND BRANDO) N NEHER NFIRM NOR NY HIS STORY. INED, PORTER IS REFUL NOT TO CLU ANYONE STILL LIVG HIS TAL, SO HOW MUCH OF THE FOLLOWG ACTUALLY HAPPENED IS FOR THE REAR TO CI FOR HIS OR HERSELF. THIS IS WHAT MR. PORTER HAD TO WRE ABOUT PL NEWMAN’S LOVE LIFE:ROBERT STACKYOUNG MARLON BRANDONEWMAN’S FIRST SER LOVE AFFAIR ALLEGEDLY TOOK PLACE WHILE HE WAS THE US NAVY, AND WAS WH FUTURE ACTOR ROBERT STACK (ELLT NS NO LS)! WHILE AT LLEGE NEWMAN ALLEGEDLY VISED MARLON BRANDO BACKSTAGE WHERE THEY HAD A SEXUAL ENUNTER. THERE WERE FEMALE NQUTS AS WELL. DARW LISTS MARILYN MONROE, GRACE KELLY, PEGGY LEE, JUDY GARLAND, SAN HAYWARD, LANA TURNER, NATALIE WOOD, VIVIEN LEIGH AND TALLULAH BANKHEAD. BUT DON’T END THERE.

THERE WAS ALSO AN TERMTENT AFFAIR WH JOHN DEREK THE SIXTI AND A THREE-YEAR RELATNSHIP WH FORMER CHILD STAR BRANDON WIL. HE PLAYED THE LTLE BOY SHANE, AND WOULD DIE YOUNG A R ACCINT 1972. PORTER’S ALLEGATNS MAY ALL BE TE. BUT THEY MAY ALSO BE A LOAD OF HOGWASH. SCE EVERY AFFAIR HE MENTNS VOLVE PARTICIPANTS WHO ARE NO LONGER WH AND, THEREFORE, UNABLE TO DISPUTE HIS RMATN, I WOULD PREFER TO RERVE JUDGMENT UNTIL SOMEONE LIVG NFIRMS SOME ASPECT OF HIS STORI. EVEN HIS SOURC ARE ALL AD; WILLIAMS, MCQUEEN, RULE AND WTERS. CONVENIENT. JOANNE WOODWARD WOULD KNOW, OF URSE, BUT SHE SEEMS MOST UNLIKELY TO DIGNIFY MR. PORTER’S BOOK BY MENTG EHER WAY.

I LET THIS PERSON BLATHER ON AND ON, AS THEY PUFFED UP THEIR FE FEATHERS. WHEN FALLY THE BLATHERG STOPPED, I ASKED ONLY ONE QUTN, “WELL, THEN WHY DO YOU PRONOUNCE ‘SCHOOL” WH THE ‘SK’ SOUND STEAD OF THE ‘SHH…” SOUND?” FEATHERS FLATTENED, NO MORE BLATHERG. ALSO LEARNED WHY SO MANY WORDS HAVE “EXTRA” LETTERS. WHEN FIRST VELOPG THE SPELLG OF THE LANGUAGE, THOSE WHO WERE DOG THE GATHERGS WERE PAID PER/LETTER. THE MORE LETTERS ADD, THE MORE YOU WERE PAID. SO, WAS MUCH TO THEIR ADVANTAGE TO HAVE A MORE LETTERS WORDS… SO MUCH FOR THE EXTRA LETTERS OUR LANGUAGE.REPLY ALAN ROYLE MARCH 8, 2017 AT 2:01 PM THANK YOU FOR THAT RMATN, CHARMIE.

I AM TORN BETWEEN SPELLG AS I HAVE ALL MY LIFE, THE ENGLISH WAY, AND AT THE SAME TIME AWARE THAT MOST OF MY BOOK SAL (AND SE REARS I IMAGE) ARE AMERIN. PERSONALLY, I PREFER THE AMERIN WAY BEE IS EASIER. I MEAN, WHY TOSS A PLETELY UNNCSARY ‘U’ TO ‘FAVOURE’ OR ‘HARBOUR’ OR ‘LOUR’,WHEN ALL THREE WORDS READ AND SOUND LIKE ‘FAVORE’, ‘HARBOR’ AND ‘LOR’? I LOVE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, BUT REALLY DO NEED RE-VAMPG.I SHALL POST PART ONE OF ‘MY 50 FAVOURE (FAVORE) MOVI TOMORROW (SUNDAY). THANK YOU FOR YOUR PUT.REPLY S. ALLEN FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 5:36 PM I’M GLAD TO READ THAT YOU QUTN DARW PORTER. ONE OF PORTER’S CRICISMS IS THAT HE CLAIMS SOURC FOR HIS , BUT FAILS TO CE, AND QUOT SUPPOSEDLY “ACTUAL” NVERSATNS BETWEEN LOVERS, ETC. [BOGART, AGA, BUT PROBABLY OTHER BOOKS AS WELL.] MY GUS IS THAT HE RECEIV ., AND CREAT SCENARS AROUND THIS. ANYWAY, I FD TIROME, AND DON’T RE TO KNOW ALL THAT STUFF ABOUT MOST OF THE STARS. SOMETIME, DURG THE 50’S, OR LATER? MY MOTHER TOLD ME THAT ROCK HUDSON HAD A “BEARD”, AND DID I KNOW WHAT THAT WAS? SHE EXPLAED. IF SHE READ AT THE BETY PARLOR, WASN’T A SECRET DURG THAT TIME. I GATHER THAT MOST REVIEWERS OF PORTER, HAVE READ MANY, MANY OF HIS BOOKS.REPLY ALAN ROYLE FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 8:27 PM PERSONALLY, I ULD NOT RE LS ABOUT ANYONE’S SEXUAL PREFERENC, BUT THOSE WHO PURCHASE MY BOOKS AND LISTEN TO MY RAD TERVIEWS ARE APPARENTLY FASCATED BY . DATA I HAVE KNOWN ABOUT FOR S IS NEWS TO A LOT OF FANS WHO DO NOT READ AS WILY AS I DO, SO I LLECT AND LLATE WHAT I BELIEVE IS TERTG (EVEN TILLATG TO SOME) AND WRE ABOUT OR DISCS DURG MY ONCE A MONTH RAD SPOT. AS FOR ROCK HUDSON, I DISTCTLY RELL BEG TOLD BY 9 YEAR-OLDS MY CLASS AT SCHOOL ( 1956) THAT HE HAD TERM ‘GAY’ WAS NOT E THEN – NOT ATRALIA ANYWAY. I DID NOT BELIEVE THEM AT THE TIME, BUT IF THAT WAS BEG SAID FREMANTLE, WTERN ATRALIA WAY BACK THEN, I IMAGE WAS MON KNOWLEDGE HOLLYWOOD LONG BEFORE THAT.I QUE ENJOY UNEARTHG TAILS ABOUT MOVIE STARS THAT REVEAL THEM TO BE JT LIKE MOST ORDARY FOLK. NOBODY IS PERFECT, YET STUDS WENT TO A GREAT AL OF TROUBLE TO IMBUE THEIR STARS WH AN RA OF PERFECTN THAT THEY SIMPLY DID NOT SERVE. ACTG, AFTER ALL, IS JT A JOB LIKE ANY OTHER. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT A GREAT MANY MORE OF S PRACTNERS ARE EXTRAORDARILY ATTRACTIVE MEN AND WOMEN.I THK I MIGHT POST THE FIRST PART OF MY ’50 FAVOURE MOVI OF ALL TIME’ ON SUNDAY. DO YOU THK THAT MIGHT BE OF TERT OR NOT? I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR OPN, SHEILA.REPLY S. ALLEN FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 3:11 PM YOU OUGHT TO READ REVIEWS OM THOSE WHO HAVE READ HIS TWO BOOKS ON BOGART! TOO MUCH “MASHED POTATO AND GRAVY”, OM SELECTNS I READ ON TER. I HAVE THEORY THAT THERE MAY BE SOME TTH TO WHAT HE WR HE MAY ATTRACT THOSE W/ MORE . [GAYS] MORE FORTABLE TALKG W/ HIM, THAN SO LLED MA STREAM BGRAPHERS. THERE’S NO WAY TO KNOW W/ BS. I WISH BOGART HAD WRTEN HIS TOBGRAPHY.REPLY ALAN ROYLE FEBARY 12, 2016 AT 4:46 PM THE STUDS HAD THEIR PUBLICY PEOPLE CHURN OUT A LOAD OF DSWALLOP ABOUT THEIR STARS, AND THEY DID SO FOR ABOUT 60 YEARS. NOW WE HAVE ALL KDS OF ORDARY PEOPLE VOLVED THE DTRY DURG THE STUD SYSTEM, WHO ARE WRG THEIR MEMOIRS REGARDG THOSE DAYS. SOME OF THE PEOPLE ARE PROBABLY OUT TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK, AND DARW PORTER MAY VERY WELL BE GUILTY OF THAT. HOWEVER, HE MIGHT ALSO BE TELLG THE TTH. I SUPPOSE WHAT REALLY HAPPENED LI SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE TWO.
