Hollywood Trivia Interview and Mother's Day Tribute with Author Marilyn Morris author of The Women of Camp Sobingo



How would you convince seven shipwrecked individuals on a deserted island to buy your book? If you were asked to give a speech on the Book Walk of Fame what would you thank and why? Find out all this and more today when The Real Hollywood’s Book chat welcomes author Marilyn Morris, author of the novel The Women of Camp Sobingo.

ABOUT THE BOOK:Four women of diverse backgrounds form a bond while en route to join their Army officer husbands in Korea in 1946. Their experiences in a far-flung military compound strengthen three of the women, but a fourth chooses to end her life, and during a reunion twenty-five years later, long-held dark secrets and sorrows are revealed.

Welcome Marilyn, it’s a pleasure to have you visiting today.

Thank you Rebecca,

Thursday Thirteen - Happy to Entertain - Dom Deluise - Thirteen Movies to Watch


Dom Deluise, 1933-2009

If laughter is the best medicine then everyone should watch at least one of the many comedic movies that cast naturally funny actor Dom Deluise. He was probably best known for his movies starring Mel Brooks and Burt Reynolds in Blazing Saddles and Cannonball Run. The 1960’s and 1970’s movies and television were made more memorable because he had a magical talent that made people laugh. Deluise died Monday night with his family by his side at a hospital in Santa Monica, California. If you remember Deluise or want to experience his naturally funny personality for the first time I invite you to watch these thirteen of his many movies;


The Twelve Chairs (1970)
Blazing Saddles with Mel Brooks
Silent Movie
History of the World, Part I
Robin Hood: Men In Tights

*Starring with Burt Reynolds
Smokey and the Bandit
Smokey and the Bandit II
Cannonball Run
Cannonball Run II
The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
The End
Hot Stuff

Note; whenever I watched any of these movies I often wondered how they managed to complete the filming of the movie because it seemed to be non-stop laughter. Have you seen any of these movies and which one(s)?
