Superman Cometh

Is It a Bird? Is It a Plane? No, it’s another movie about Superman. Man of Steel, scheduled to land June 14 on the big screen, stars chiseled British actor Henry Cavill in the dual role of Superman and reporter Clark Kent. Amy Adams appears as Lois Lane; Russell Crowe is Jor-El; and Superman’s adoptive earth parents are portrayed by Kevin Costner and Diane Lane. What a great cast! Director Zack Snyder promises to explore Superman’s emotional frailties -- such as loneliness and doubt -- in this latest outing. But we all know you can’t keep a good superhero down. In fact, this one was introduced in DC Comics publication of Action Comics #1 way back in 1938, which means he turns 75 this year. Way to go, Superman!      

Kevin Costner Lost Film Helps Gulf Coast

Would you like to view a never-before-seen Western short film featuring Kevin Costner AND help with the Gulf Coast recovery at the same time?

If so, please go to www.baddaymovie.com and pay whatever you choose to download Bad Day. A portion of the proceeds will go to Gulf Coast aid organizations that help people affected by the oil spill disaster in that area.

According to director Modi Frank, Bad Day was filmed in 1986 and is “a 20-minute tribute to the early days of the one-reel, silent Westerns” that also offers “an elegant and poignant soundtrack by Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter Dave Alvin along with X and The Knitters drummer, D. J. Bonebrake."

It’s interesting to note that Bad Day has never been seen by the public at large. But now, people all over the world can see this classic western tale on their personal computers while helping in the recovery of the Gulf Coast area.

Looks like an offer we can’t refuse!
