Here is the mighty Harlan Ellison writing about the film we are working on about Chuck Beaumont, one of his good friends... (It's in context; here's the link: http://harlanellison.com/heboard/archive/unca20060606.htm)

ASSORTED THANKYOUS

TODD & DEBBIE CASSEL: The tape arrived safely. Thank you ever so much for recapturing for me, a misplaced lovely moment of my past. Looking forward to seeing you in Tempe. Keep your eyes fully lamp-lit this Sunday, for a piece on my receiving the Grand Master Award, in the ARIZONA REPUBLIC. Very nice, sharp reporter named Kerry L'Engle (I think that's how he spells it, but it might be just "Lengel") called today and we had a nice interview. It's scheduled for the Sunday REPUBLIC. Hint, hint; I can always use extra copies of that section of the paper; and will even pay for them, needs be.

(Yesterday, I sat for a long interview on camera with a clever young man named Jason Brock--and his wife, Sunni--who came down from Portland. They're doing a documentary on the late Charles Beaumont, and they'd already filmed Greg Bear, Geo. Clayton Johnson, Bill Nolan, Ray Bradbury, Richard Matheson, and others. Their production company is JaSunni Prods., and I have no idea if there's a website, nor when the completed Beaumont documentary will be available--I suspect it will be, fer shur, a substantial while--but I thought I'd mention it...just for you completists.)...
