Errol Hanging at the LaMaze

22 Jul

Hi Everyone,

Here’s a current interior photo of the Café LaMaze, one of Errol’s legendary stops on his way by car to Mexico in the ’40s.  In fact, he attended its opening night, and gambled in its secret upstairs casino.   Clark Gable, John Wayne, Rita Hayworth (who lived nearby when she danced at Caliente), Lana Turner,  Bing Crosby, Jimmy Durante, Johnny Weismuller, and many other celebs, all frequented here.  Marcel Lamaze was a renowned Hollywood chef.

The July 2013 Rock-itt Magazine is now online!

01 Jul

Pete, at the Rock-itt Magazine tells me that he thinks Flynn is having a bit of fun with him – as the Hobart to Hollywood entry of his continuing series Our Famous Mr. Flynn is missing from this issue because at it was being saved, it disappeared! He could swear he heard Flynn chuckling! It will be seen in the next issue!

Robert Florczak’s Movie Locations Then and Now series is much alive in this issue with shots from Roman Holiday and Invasion of the Body Snatchers!
