there’s incredible footage from her incomparable career starting as far back as the 1940s through the recording of her last album, and the joy of hearing a woman do what she did best–sing. we see, and hear anita singing more than 30 songs, including “a nightingale sang in berkeley square, ” “let me off uptown, ” “honeysuckle rose, “tea for two, ” “let’s fall in love” and from her legendary performance at the 1958 newport jazz festival, sweet georgia brown .

in the late 1970s, at the height of his stardom, nelson ventured into feature films and proved a competent actor as well. he played a supporting role with robert redford in the electric horseman (1979) and went on to play the lead in honeysuckle rose (1980), the songwriter (1984) (with kris kristofferson), and red headed stranger (1987). in the western barbarosa (1982), with actor gary busey, nelson even earned accolades from vincent canby, film critic of the new york times. television films in which nelson has starred include where the hell’s the gold (1988) and once upon a texas train (1988) .

this story is totally predictable from the opening scenes of
honeysuckle rose ,
which is a certain disappointment; the movie is sly and entertaining, but it could have been better. still, it has its charms, and one is certainly the presence of willie nelson himself, making his starring debut at the age of 47 and not looking a day over 60. he' s grizzled, grinning, sweet - voiced and pleasant, and a very engaging actor. (he gave promise of that with a single one - liner in his screen debut in
the electric horseman ,
expressing his poignant desire for the kind of girl who could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch. )

sung by willie nelson from this film went to no. # 20 on the billboard hot 100 whilst the

album went to no. # 11 on the u. s. billboard 200 chart but chart - topped to the no. # 1 spot on billboard' s top country albums. the song
on the road again
got oscar nominated and won a grammy award for best country song. in 2004, rolling stone magazine scored the song at the no. # 471 rank on its list of the 500 greatest songs of all time whilst in 2011, the song was inducted into the grammy hall of fame. the tune was nelson' s his sixth no. # 1 hit as a solo performer and his ninth no. # 1 country & western hit overall. the track has frequently been used on various soundtracks for films and television series and is considered a music classic .
i couldn’t warm up to it the first time around because it’s a character - driven film (i was all about cleverly - plotted movies at that point in my cinematic education) and i thought with maturity, maybe it plays a little better .
a seven - time grammy award winner, willie nelson has received numerous accolades including american music awards, academy of country music awards, country music association awards and others. he is a co - founder of farm aid, an annual series of fundraising events which began as an all - star benefit concert in 1985 to raise money for american family farmers. he continues to lobby against horse slaughter and produces his own blend of biodiesel fuel. an old - school road - dog troubadour with new school wheels, willie plays concerts year - round, tirelessly touring on honeysuckle rose iii (he rode his first two buses into the ground), taking his music and fans to places that are always worth the ride .

first leading role in a major motion picture for singer turned actor willie nelson who was 47 years old when he debuted in a starring role in this movie. this picture followed nelson' s feature film debut in a supporting role in the electric horseman (1979) released the previous year .
fats waller had penned an innumerable number of compositions. some of waller’s works with enthusiastic vocals and popular titles are ‘don’t let it bother you’, ‘sweetie pie’, ‘lulu’s back in town’, ‘truckin’’, ‘a little bit independent’, ‘it’s a sin to tell a lie’, ‘you’re not the kind’, ‘until the real thing comes along’, ‘the curse of an aching heart’, ‘dinah’, ‘s’posin’, ‘smarty’, ‘the sheik of araby’, ‘hold tight’ and ‘i love to whistle’. waller had massive hits with specialities such as ‘i’m gonna sit right down and write myself a letter’, ‘when somebody thinks you’re wonderful’, ‘my very good friend the milkman’ and ‘your feet’s too big’. he recorded ballads including ‘two sleepy people’ and ‘then i’ll be tired of you’. some of his other compositions include ‘honeysuckle rose’ and ‘the joint is jumping’ (co - written with raze and j. c. johnson) .
for this memorable occasion, willie wears fashion designer john varvatos on the to all the girls… album materials. varvatos is also featuring willie along with his two sons, lukas nelson and micah nelson, in the brand’s fall 2013 campaign, which includes striking black and white images and a short film lensed by danny clinch .
doctors’ wives (1971) is a trashy soap opera played straight as if it’s a serious drama but cannon’s brief appearance as a nymphomaniac housewife has a lively vulgarity that almost elevates this into the ranks of great kitsch. unfortunately she gets murdered early into the film and her shameless behavior and foul mouth – “god, am i horny! ” is her opening line – is greatly missed. while the film is no comedy, it comes close to one whenever cannon is onscreen, vowing to sleep with all her friend’s wives and rate them in bed. and it’s not the last time cannon gives a peerless comic performance in a non - comedy .
in september 2013, legacy recordings will release to all the girls…, a collection of newly recorded duets between willie nelson and a dream list of contemporary pop - country women singers including dolly parton, mavis staples, sheryl crow, loretta lynn, wynonna judd, rosanne cash, alison krauss, miranda lambert, tina rose, carrie underwood, emmylou harris, norah jones, secret sisters, brandi carlile, lily meola, shelby lynne, melonie cannon and paula nelson .
regarded as one of the greatest pianists in the history of jazz music, fats waller was a singer, musician and entertainer of exceptional forte. his amazingly light and flexible touch belies his physical simplicity. waller initiated the use of pipe organ and hammond organ in jazz. calling the pipe organ as the ‘god box’, he created a world of joy for the music lovers. that is one of the reasons why he is hailed as a genius even years after his death. as an improviser and composer, there were very rare occasions when his invention flagged, adding paradoxically winsome songs like
honeysuckle rose
,
ain' t misbehavin” ,
keepin' out of mischief now
,
blue turning grey over you
and the extraordinary
jitterbug waltz
to the jazz inventory. however, in spite of his exuberance and talent, he is best remembered for his comic personality. explore more on this musician’s life in this biography below .
the film got oscar nominated receiving an academy award nomination for best music - original song for willie nelson' s ballad
on the road again
, the title of which is also one of the movie' s aka titles. nelson' s nom for this tune to date [ june 2013 ] still remains nelson' s only ever oscar nomination .
of all the popular singers who have become movie stars (e. g. , frank sinatra, elvis presley, cher), the unlikeliest of all is probably willie nelson. a long - haired, pot - smoking country singer with a music career stretching back to the mid - 1950s, nelson made his film debut in a supporting role opposite robert redford and jane fonda in
nelson demonstrates a commanding onscreen presence in the film (his second feature, and first starring role) and even though his character lets little willie do the thinking of big willie, buck bonham is a sympathetic figure (the filmmakers also resist the temptation to whitewash what buck has done, instead allowing the audience decide if nelson’s charisma is sufficient absolution for the sins in his marriage) .
i remember playing the hell out of the soundtrack and seeing this twice in the theatre. weirdly, i' ve never seen it since (the summer of 1980, when i was 12, had me going to see pretty much everything that was out, and many two or three times). my dad loved the urban cowboy film and soundtrack, and played it in his store for months afterward .

( 2007–2009). after nearly 40 years of films, television, and theatrical performances, scarwid' s career has slowed in the past few years, but film and television viewers are almost certain to see more of her excellent work in the future. on a personal note, diana scarwid married dr. eric scheinbart on her 23rd birthday, in 1978. the couple, whose son and daughter were born in the 1980s, parted company in the mid 1990s .
one of nelson’s many creative high - water marks and his first real commercial breakthrough came with the red headed stranger. this 1975 concept album was recorded in a small texas studio on a shoestring budget. some of the executives at columbia records, nelson’s label at this time, balked at releasing it. (its raw minimalism, to them, suggested a mere demo record .) yet it ultimately became the first of many million sellers nelson would enjoy during the 1970s. from it also came nelson’s first # 1 single, “blue eyes crying in the rain, ” ironically not a song written by nelson but an ethereal version of a 1945 fred rose composition .
if there' s an edge of disappointment coming out of the movie, maybe it' s inspired by that simplicity of approach to complicated problems. willie nelson has lived a long time, experienced a lot and suffered a certain amount on his way to his current success, and my hunch is that he knows a lot more about his character' s problems in this movie than he lets on. maybe the idea was to film the legend and save the man for later .
reportedly, the character buck bonham that willie nelson played is considered to have borne more than a passing similarity to the actual willie nelson the person in real life. this duality was also displayed in nelson' s character buck bonham' s life experience in the film' s story. this is reflected in the movie' s tagline that states :
for 20 years, he' s been singing to the country. but he never figured he' d be living his own love songs .
.
in the year 1943, he starred in the film ‘stormy weather’. in december, in the same year, while playing the zanzibar room in hollywood, he suffered a bout of influenza. this forced him to cut all his engagements in order to return home. his health suffered badly due to excessive drinking, over work and obesity and influenza added to the complications. on december 15, 1943, while travelling in a train back to new york, thomas fats waller passed away near kansas city, at the age of 39 of pneumonia .
i recently revisited a film i had once greatly enjoyed but hadn’t seen since its original release in 1978 – heaven can wait – and was prepared for the worst. it didn’t seem like the sort of movie that would wear well over the years and it certainly wasn’t very original to begin with. after all, it was a remake of 1941’s here come mr. jordan, which falls into that overexposed fantasy genre of spirits or ghosts aiding and complicating the lives of the living as in topper or ghost or all of me or angel on my shoulder and on and on. i’ll dispense with any plot description since you’ve probably seen it or can find a more detailed synopsis elsewhere but i was pleasantly surprised by a second viewing .
despite the completely absurd premise, screenwriters elaine may and warren beatty (with uncredited contributions from robert towne) have fun with it, throwing in some wicked black comedy and anti - corporation satire to balance the fantasy elements and the warm romance at the film’s center with beatty and julie christie at their most appealing (except for the bad ’70s hair day). but what really stands out is a scene stealing performance by dyan cannon as beatty’s gleefully venal wife who attempts repeatedly, with the help of her spineless lover charles grodin, to kill beatty for his millions. each failed attempt makes her increasingly hysterical and manic and it’s as much fun to watch as edgar kennedy’s slow burn in duck soup where he dishes out and endures abuse from harpo and chico marx .
apparently you missed boynton beach club when it was released in 2006. comments on it would have made a perfect ending for your piece. it' s not a gem but it' s not bad. dyan stars, along with brenda vacarro, len cariou and sally kellerman, among others. the director was susan seidelman. don' t be too hard on yourself for missing it. it wasn' t in release long. i saw it at a pittsburgh multi - plex, where it played for a week. the subject is the social life and romantic entanglements of a group of senior citizens, some who are mourning the loss of loved ones. dyan encounters the perfect man, until she finds out the horrible secret he kept from her. i' ll let you watch the film to learn what this secret is. don' t worry. it' s not that bad. i always liked her in whatever movie she was featured. you' re right. she was good in
doctors' wives
and

she is a shapely young lady who has had a crush on the singer since she was knee high to a grasshopper. once they go out on the road again, the singer and the best friend' s daughter start sleeping with one another. this situation causes anguish for the singer, the daughter, the best friend, the wife, the son and the band. but after going down to mexico to slug back some tequila and think it over, the singer returns to his wife and the best friend' s daughter wisely observes :
anythang that hurts this many people can' t be right .
the movie also surrounds nelson with an interesting cast: dyan cannon is wonderful as willie' s long - suffering wife, a sexy 40ish earth - woman with streaked hair and a wardrobe from l. l. bean. she survives the test of her big scene, an archetypal c & w confrontation in which she charges onstage to denounce her husband and his new girlfriend .
amy irving is not quite so well cast as the girlfriend; she has too many scenes in which she gazes adoringly at willie - who, on the other hand, hardly ever gazes adoringly at her. slim pickens, who should be registered as a national historical place, is great as the best friend. and there is a hilarious bit part, a fatuous country singer, played by (it says here) mickey rooney jr .
mercifully, the movie doesn' t drag out its tale of heartbreak into a c & w soap opera. instead, director jerry schatzberg (
scarecrow
) uses an easy - going documentary style to show us life on the band bus, at a family reunion, and backstage at big concerts. all of these scenes are filled to overflowing with colors; this is one of the cheeriest, brightest looking movies i' ve ever seen, starting with willie' s own amazing costumes and including the spectrum at the concerts, reunions, picnics, etc. half the movie seems to be shot during parties, and although we enjoy the texture and detail we sometimes wonder why so little seems to be happening .

spoiled la beauty, sunny wilton, is busy instagramming sexcapades with a tinder hook - up, when she finds herself running late to hawk artisan candles at the local craft fair with her driven business partner, lulu. distracted by life - lived - through - phone, sunny plays it arrogantly cool as she hurries to the fair, when an accident changes everything. tragically phoneless and utterly clueless, sunny soon learns the world is strangely unfriendly without a device; neighbors and bystanders turn a cold shoulder as she grows increasingly desperate in her newfound state as technology refugee. sunny spirals into survival - mode when she runs out of gas in the remote desert with no means to pay, finding unlikely help from a young girl. with a false sense of hope that she will be taken care of by outlying strangers, sunny unravels toward imminent death as she, for real, cannot live without her phone .

that picture' s director, sydney pollack, obviously saw something special in the diminutive 46 - year - old. he decided to build a movie he was producing around nelson' s persona and music, and cast him as the lead - - a romantic lead, no less. in
, nelson plays a hard - living country star who is frequently
on the road again
( the debut for his most iconic song) much to the consternation of his loyal, long - suffering wife (dyan cannon). after one of his band members quits, buck bonham (nelson) hires the musician' s pretty young daughter (amy irving), and romantic complications ensue .
( 1939), in which married concert violinist leslie howard has an illicit affair on tour with pianist ingrid bergman (her hollywood debut in a remake of her 1936 swedish hit). that would explain why the down - home, all - american nelson picture carries story credits for gustaf molander and gosta stevens .
did fine at the box office, schatzberg was not so lucky critically with this one bringing irving an unfortunate golden raspberry (aka razzie) award for worst supporting actress. the picture itself did not receive any other
worst
nominations; bad musicals were already well represented that year by
which is not to say this picture is
bad .
in fact, it has been dubbed the
of country music. while acknowledging a certain
edge of disappointment
coming off the movie, critic roger ebert called it
one of the cheeriest, brightest looking movies i' ve ever seen
and praised schatzberg for using
an easy - going documentary style to show us life on the band bus, at a family reunion and backstage at big concerts .
nelson fared well with the soundtrack, performing more than a dozen of his self - composed songs .
on the road again
was his sixth # 1 hit as a solo performer and his ninth # 1 country hit overall. it was also an academy award best song nominee and winner of the grammy for best country song. in 2004 ,
magazine ranked it # 471 on its list of the 500 greatest songs of all time, and in 2011 it was inducted into the grammy hall of fame .
screenplay: john binder, carol sobieski, william d. wittliff; story by gustaf molander and gosta stevens
editing: aram avakian, norman gay, marc laub, evan a. lottman
