The Battle for the mind and the soul of man. (The Treasury of Clyde Parker Jr.)

---

Only this time-- the battleground was the newly transferred museum, snatched up.. And concerning provenance-- this "prove our artifacts aren't real" approach is an ass-backwards and unacceptable standard, seemingly blown out of the water.. Throughout a call for accountability, expressed publicly to both Mr. Carver and James Howard owner of the vest claimed worn by Bonnie Parker, from which swatches are jointly sold through the Ambush Museum and via James' ebay moniker "Photoboy"-- I feel a fair and polite attempt has been made, in allowing these folks a boundless chance to defend themselves.

I have yet to hear a word from either gentleman. However what little response has been forthcoming to anyone who's asked good and logical questions-- has involved a combination of insults and silence.. Also intensely disturbing to many of us who've known L. Hinton had been contacted by a trusted friend to confirm that indeed none of his personally owned items had been offered for sale.

So concerning that well-documented ebay offering-- the question became, if indeed "Boots" didn't know of that auction.. With continued public calls for explanations by Mr. Howard, but none forthcoming-- fast forward to now, or should I say back a bit-- when Mr. I say may have, as I'm not sure anyone can attest that Bonnie and Clyde actually hid there.

Prearranging

The John Cole House was considered a "dog run" house-- as it's 4 bedrooms were split by a long center hallway, which allowed dogs to roam the house. Because history should be about truth.. It should be about integrity.. History should be about caring, transparency and the accuracy of history-- not some shallow focus on apparent greed and inflated egos.

Seems those who back others who stroke egos to the point of egomania-- have forgotten about the history their egos were hewn by. I and others who know-- can attest without reservation-- that "is" the Otis Cole House in Sailes..

So again in reporting on behalf of this history-- what is to be made of this most recent evidence which matches assertions previously declared?? Seems bricks were removed from this location on more than one occasion..

Carver to the Otis Cole House. One would think, when on a quest of this nature-- care would be taken not to involve witnesses and surely not to allow a visual record to be made. I hardly know what to say.. Winston Woodward at 6: History should be about truth and the expansion and preservation of knowledge for future generations-- "not" egos and misguided longing for acceptance within private groups-- who's comments within "the big picture" and sans the airing of views in public where all can see and scrutinize them..

Those of us who genuinely care for this history.. Seems the entity is controlling group leaders.. It would be nice to see some on the wrong side of things find their hearts and character-- and stand up to wrong, not beside it. However it seems at least for now-- those hearts and character are controlled by others-- and no longer reside within their rightful owners.

Hopefully, that will change-- for the renewed betterment of this history. You got to speak your mind if you dare"-- Crosby, Stills and Nash. Winston Woodward at 1: The little tyke walking behind the car, is Bailey's nephew Warren Tynes. Many "thanks" to the Tynes family-- for my use of these historic photos. Winston Woodward at Recently, it was pointed out to me by someone I respect greatly-- that up until not many years ago..

Oh, we may have disagreed vehemently on things historically defined.. And how dramatically, the definition of character has changed within this history. S o it came as news to us, when this same individual and great friend of "Boots" who many trust implicitly.. Thus a question for those who participated in crafting the following ebay offering. For those unaware of the displays there-- the image shown within this ebay listing.. So now apparently-- at least one of "Boots" Red Crown bullets has been offered for sale.. Seems this ebay auction doesn't lie.. Could that be true?? But "there they are"..

Well, not for those who truly care about this history. Not by a long shot. And like a bunch of shameless Elmer Fudds.. Be very, very quiet"..

Forgotten Treasures

Seems it's time once again, to evoke the spirit of Ricky Ricardo -- in saying some may have some serious "esspainin" to do. And now also explain-- how personal items said not for sale and supposedly under the cloak of diligent care -- have been paraded for sale on the Internet?? How is that possible.. Fair questions have been asked.. And as honor begets honor-- don't some think it's time to ante up, for the benefit of right?? For while some seem content lining up Facebook friends, in what could be an attempt to limit descent and create what is seemingly a dwindling group of "likers"??

And on behalf of this history-- truth. Some it seems, feel they can just ignore questions concerning provenance.. And BTW-- if I want mudflaps-- I'll buy a pair for my car and have some pretty female mechanic install them. That way-- I'll know the mudflaps are doing a respectable job-- and not just wallowing in the muck. Winston Woodward at 2: Years ago, it seemed harder to justify bogus articles of history marketed as real.

This was because legitimate auction houses, especially of the major-league variety-- insisted on solid provenance, before offering people's articles for sale under the good name and auspices of the auction house. However, the proliferation of "quick-sale" services such as ebay and Craigslist, have seemingly altered the landscape of historical sales..

"The" Iconic Bonnie Parker Photo??

That's all that it was. For better or worse, the roles we play become a part of our persona, and the actress and the woman are identified with that persona. People thought of me as being like her. And that was the unfortunate reality for me about this project. In , Dunaway appeared in a television adaptation of Clifford Odets 's dramatic play The Country Girl as the wife of a washed-up alcoholic singer played by Dick Van Dyke , whom she later described as "one of the sweetest and funniest men in the world", but admitted "Though it was a valiant effort on all our parts, and there were moments I thought were good and true, the remake fell short of our hopes and certainly of the original.

But doing it helped remind of that I do love this business of acting, something the Crawford movie had come close to making me forget. The play would have been better with just the simplest of women. She's usually in command. During this time, Dunaway moved to England with her partner Terry O'Neill, whom she married in , and, being more interested in her married life, only took on work that was convenient for her. That same year, she returned to the screen in Michael Winner 's period melodrama The Wicked Lady , in which she played an 18th-century highway robber. The film proved to be a critical and commercial failure.

It seemed to never quite decide whether to be a farce or a drama, and so it failed by being neither. In , Dunaway played the lead villain in the superhero movie Supergirl. She felt that "the film was really just a send-up, a spoof, and I had a lot of fun with Selena her character " [66] but later admitted she was furious with the director Jeannot Szwarc , "Every time I tried to do something funny, he wouldn't let me. He said, "you have to be the straight person". I always wanted to do comedy, but it's daunting when you've not done it before. The following year, she starred in the miniseries, Christopher Columbus.

She also appeared in two Agatha Christie adaptations, Ordeal by Innocence and Thirteen at Dinner which was made for television. Though the work was involving, Dunaway struggled to find artistically fulfilling roles during this period in England.

"Welcome" to

The television scripts I was getting were thin. There is no comparison between those and a Chinatown script. I was rapidly becoming invisible. I felt increasingly that my career was being limited to, and limited by, the projects that were being mounted there. Dunaway was widely praised for her performance as an alcoholic opposite Mickey Rourke in Barbet Schroeder 's drama Barfly Based on a novel by Charles Bukowski , the film was very important to her, as she later explained, "This character, who has given over her days and nights to a bottle, is my way back to the light.

This is a role that I care deeply about. I haven't felt this passion for a character since Network. I saw the promise of a comeback for me in the deglamorized face of Wanda, a woman of sweet vulnerability. Pauline Kael wrote that "Dunaway plays the self-destructive Wanda with a minimum of fuss In , she appeared in the period drama The Gamble but felt that the best part of this experience turned out to be meeting her co-star Matthew Modine.

Dunaway co-starred Richard Widmark and Neil Patrick Harris as an enchanting dressmaker who lightens up the lives of a young boy and his grandfather, whom she marries to the town's disapproval. The film aired on TNT to great success and became one of Dunaway's favorite experiences. It was an incredible collaboration, and I treasure the experience as much as the result, of which I am extremely proud.

The film did not do well at the box office but Dunaway's performance earned her good reviews. Roger Ebert wrote that, "Duvall and Dunaway provide the best moments in the movie, he by showing the unconscious egotism of the male libido, she by showing that in all times and all weathers, some kinds of women will gauge their happiness by the degree to which their family's exterior appearance matches the accepted values of society.

Double Edge by Israeli director, writer and actor Amos Kollek offered her a role she wanted to play, a New York Times reporter who has been sent to Jerusalem for three weeks to cover the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. All of these were smaller movies that never manage to draw the attention of a mass audience. The following year, Dunaway accepted a supporting role in the thriller The Temp , as she felt the project had the potential to be a mainstream hit, and was a chance for her to reconnect with a larger audience. Four weeks before its release, Paramount decided to re-shoot the final scene, much to Dunaway's displeasure, as her character was going to be turned into the murderer.

The new ending wasn't enough to salvage the film, though. By the final scene, it didn't matter who was the killer, the film had been dead for an hour at least. Dunaway was very proud of the film, and believed that her role could bring her career to higher heights than ever. Dunaway was dismayed to find that some of her best scenes were left out of the American version.

Around that time, she was contacted by NBC who wanted her to take on the role of a female sleuth, more in the vein of Columbo than Murder, She Wrote. As the prospective series was being developed, Dunaway contacted Columbo star Peter Falk , wanting his advice on how to approach playing a sleuth character. While discussing the role, Falk told Dunaway about a Columbo script that he had written himself. It's All in the Game featured a seductive woman who plays a game of cat-and-mouse with Lt.

Columbo in the midst of a murder. Falk had written the script some years prior, saying that he could not find the right actress to take on the role. He offered her the role, and Dunaway accepted immediately. Dunaway was recognized with the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series , saying it was that moment when she felt like she was truly home.

It was like being wrapped up in a warm embrace. Though this is more often than not a town of grand illusions and transitory friendships, the moment seemed heartfelt, and touched me deeply. With the prospective detective show not working out, Dunaway became interested in returning to the stage. She auditioned to replace Glenn Close in the musical Sunset Boulevard , a stage version of film of the same name.

They announced that when Close finished her engagement, the show would shut down completely. A hit at the box office, the film was praised for its romance and the performances of the three main characters. That same year, Dunaway published Looking for Gatsby , a memoir she co-wrote with Betsy Sharkey, which earned her great reviews. Mark Harris of Entertainment Weekly wrote in his review of the book that "to read her accounts of her Oscar-nominated performances as the taut, sexy, neurotic femmes fatales of Bonnie and Clyde , Chinatown , and Network is to learn from an expert about the instincts, collaborations, and compromises that go into great film acting".

Also in , Dunaway returned to the stage, playing famed opera singer Maria Callas in the U. Callas was one of Dunaway's favorite characters she ever played. Callas is to opera what Fellini is to cinema. This is about an uncompromising artist and a professional who will stop at almost nothing to serve the art that she loves.

She said it over and over again in many of her interviews: In , she starred with Angelina Jolie in Gia , a biographical film about the rise and fall of supermodel Gia Carangi. The Story of Joan of Arc. Although failing to perform at the box office, the film was received with positive reviews. That same year, she turned down the opportunity to play a drug addict in Requiem for a Dream and the role went to Ellen Burstyn , who received an Academy Award nomination for her performance.

She served as a judge on the reality show The Starlet , which sought, American Idol -style, to find the next young actress with the potential to become a major star. Crime Scene Investigation because she was a huge fan of the show. She called the writer and director David Howard personally to accept the part of a one-armed American detective, saying it was "a really original story".

That same year, she criticized Hollywood's treatment of older women, saying: Why should I play sisters and mothers while guys like Jack and Clint, who are older than me, have on-screen lovers half their age? As film roles became more difficult to find, Dunaway bought the rights to the play after the tour and announced her intention of writing, directing and starring in the film. The production however was a disaster and financing the project has been one of the many obstacles.

I'm not going to sell it out to a studio. You have to raise money. You have to get private investors and it takes a long time to get it right. It takes 10 years. People hear Faye Dunaway and think she has a lot of money, but I don't because I've spent a lot. I spent what I want to spend on this movie and you have to have skin in this game. You have to take risks. However, it was announced in June that after nearly 20 years of owning the film rights, Dunaway had decided to withdraw from the project. In , a photo of Dunaway taken by Jerry Schatzberg in was chosen as the 64th annual Cannes Film Festival poster backdrop.

The festival organizers described it as a "Model of sophistication and timeless elegance, it is an embodiment of the cinematic dream that the Festival de Cannes seeks to maintain".

In , Dunaway was the first recipient of the Leopard Club Award and made a rare personal appearance at the Locarno International Film Festival to accept the award. Organizers praised the "immense contribution she has made to the emergence of the independent American films of the sixties and seventies, and the contribution is of the highest caliber".

Dunaway received a standing ovation by a crowd of 5,, and declared in an emotional speech following the tribute she received, "My fans and my friends have supported me in this search for all these years, and I thank you from all of my heart, and without you, I would not be the same Faye Dunaway. Although she stated in a interview she felt her acting career was "pretty much over", [41] Dunaway told Mankiewicz she had no intention to retire: We live for what we do.

I just want to keep working. It's where I'm happiest. The episode, titled Mr. In , Dunaway appeared in her first feature film in eight years with the release of The Bye Bye Man , a horror-thriller that proved to be a commercial success, despite negative reviews, and earned her positive notices.

Dunaway broke her leg a few days before filming but director Jonathan Baker refused to re-cast the role, as it had been written specifically for her, and rewrote her part so that she would be able to perform sitting down. Also in , Dunaway reunited with her Bonnie and Clyde co-star Warren Beatty at the 89th Academy Awards , in celebration of the film's 50th anniversary.

After being introduced by Jimmy Kimmel , they were given a standing ovation as they walked out onto the stage to present the Best Picture Award. They were given the wrong envelope and Dunaway incorrectly announced La La Land as Best Picture, instead of the actual winner, Moonlight. In December , it was announced that Dunaway will return to Broadway more than 35 years since her performance in The Curse of the Aching Heart. The production will mark the play's Broadway premiere, and will run as a strictly limited engagement in the summer of Dunaway is regarded as one of the greatest and most beautiful actresses of her generation, as well as a powerful emblem of the New Hollywood.

Any actress today would be lucky to have a fraction of her films on her resume. Cannes Film Festival artistic director Thierry Fremaux said, "She has one of the most wonderful filmographies of any actress. Look at her movies from the '70s for example — she only made good choices. She's had an incredible career. Famously demanding, with an attention to detail that sometimes drove costars and directors mad, Dunaway believed she was often mistaken for being as cold and calculating as some of the women she portrayed. Her clashes with Roman Polanski on the set of Chinatown earned her a reputation for being difficult to work with.

Upon the release of the film, Polanski told a reporter for Rolling Stone that he considered Dunaway "a gigantic pain in the ass", but added that he had "never known an actress to take work as seriously as she does. I tell you, she is a maniac. I was just the target of her blind rage at the one sin Hollywood never forgives in its leading ladies: In his book Making Movies , Sidney Lumet slammed Dunaway's reputation for being difficult as "totally untrue", and called her a "selfless, devoted, and wonderful actress".

She is intelligent, and she is strong-willed. The artist is frequently grateful and intermittently amazed, but he or she is never satisfied. That Faye is unlikely to be satisfied with her efforts—or those with whom she works—is not a caprice; it is not the willful misbehavior of a spoiled actress: This is how artists operate. God is in the details.

I want to get it right. The fact is a man can be difficult and people applaud him for trying to do a superior job. People say, 'Well gosh, he's got a lot of guts. He's a real man. In , Dunaway started a romance with stand-up comedian Lenny Bruce that lasted for a year. The couple had a two-year-live-in relationship. Dunaway wanted to marry and have children, but Mastroianni, a married man, could not bear to hurt his wife and refused, despite protests from his teenage daughter Barbara and his close friend Federico Fellini.

I gave things I have to save for my work". There are days when I look back on those years with Marcello and have moments of real regret. There is that one piece of me that thinks that had we married, we might be married still. It was one of our fantasies, that we would grow old together. He thought we would be like Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn, a love kept secret for a lifetime.

Private and only belonging to the two of us. Mastroianni later told a reporter for People in that he never got over his relationship with Dunaway. I was whole with her for the first time in my life. Their career commitments caused frequent separations and the two divorced in They married in and Dunaway credited O'Neill with being "the one person responsible for helping me grow up to womanhood and a healthy sense of myself".
