Nice to see she's getting such upscale exposure.  Evidently she can use it.  Her one other major 2012 title is something called "Not fade away," an indie film from a guy named David Chase, who is a Sopranos alumni (not sure in what capacity).  Heathcote played the lead character's girlfriend, another supporting role.  It sounds as if she did have slightly more screentime in that than was the case in Depp Shadows.

She has no 2013 or 2014 titles listed on IMDB which seems odd for such an attractive, obviously talented actress.  Maybe she needs to get a new agent.

You might want to look through the thread here, I think the title is "Yet another slideshow," with old posts about screen captures from the 1991 series.  MB kindly included images from the deleted scenes that were included in the MPI VHS release, but not included in MGM's barebones DVD issue.  Not only can you see snapshots from those scenes, but he's also included script excerpts so you can follow along.

For episode one, I really do wish they had included those scenes.  I saw the tape for episode 12 and the extra scenes on that didn't really add very much from what I can remember [spoiler](Sarah's deathbed scene seemed to go on forever...  that is really all I remember about it).[/spoiler]

Obviously, you'll want to watch the episode first, then check the board for anything about deleted scenes.  I can't recall just which episodes had extra scenes included in the VHS.  I think maybe episodes 1, 2 and 12?  There was also a book published, DS Resurrected, that gave more info about plot threads that were either left undeveloped or were scheduled for development in the aborted second season.



cheers, Gothick

What a hoot!  have fun.

Candid photos of both Karlen and Jerry Lacy dated April 2012 were posted last night on another fan site.  Karlen looked pretty good for almost-80.

I personally am not assuming anything about Karlen's interest in meeting fans or talking about his DS memories based on the fact that he hasn't been to the recent "Festival" events.

I had to go back and re-read the early posts in this thread about this deleted sequence.

It's too bad the 1991 series did not include this material in the broadcast cut, AND continue with this kind of layered narrative--it would have been far better if it had.  Just my opinion, of course.

When you look at this scene, and then you look at the content of the final episode, after all the interference from the NBC suits had botched things up so badly--well, its' hard not to feel regret for what might have been--and I write that, as is well known, from the perspective of someone who is not a fan of this redaction of DS.

Louis Edmonds and Joan Bennett.  Nancy Barrett and Joan Bennett.

Grayson and Humbert.

Thayer and just about anybody...

The real magic of DS is in those two character scenes, although in certain cases an ensemble piece, such as Judith confronting her brothers with the will in 1897, shows how superbly these seasoned pros worked together.

When Laura drifts into the coffee shop, Maggie asks her if she's come back to town "for the holidays."  I don't know the episodes around that time all that well so there may have been at least one other mention of "the holidays" around then. (We are talking about December 1966--46 years ago!)

I do seem to recall snow being mentioned in some of the Ross novels.  It's been too long since I can't be more specific.  It would certainly have been one of the *many* elements that made it clear that the world of those pastiches was one very different from the world of the actual series.

G.

Yeah, Graham mentioned how many times it has been filmed, and HBC failed to reference both the version you mention, and the one with Ethan Hawke where it was updated to modern times.
