8BLancaster Eagle-Gazette, Tuesday, August 12, 1997 Child still cooking at 85 Groucho straight man Fenneman died during June Dick Kleiner writing and perhaps yet another television series. Which raises the question: If Julia Child had never dared to go on TV, what might her long life been like? "Maybe I would have been a butcher," replies Julia, ever-fearless Julia, without missing a beat "I love butchering things." ELSEWHERE IN TELEVISION ELVIS' ALOHA: As part of its "Elvis Week" tribute on the 20th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death, VH1 airs his "Aloha From Hawaii" special at 9 p.m EDT today. Originally aired in April 1973, this two-hour extravaganza was then seen by 1.5 billion viewers in 40 countries. It features Elvis at the Honolulu Center performing such favorites as "Hound Dog," "Fever" and "Burning Love," as well as footage from his 1961 film "Blue Hawaii." no one's surprise, "I'm a natural ham." But hers is no act It's just Julia being Julia, sharing her skills and sensibilities with viewers. Dedicated viewers.
"An audience of what we call 'fluffies' would turn us off immediately," she insists. "But I think that's what public television is about, to reach that smaller number of people who are really serious about what they're looking at" She is speaking from her home in Cambridge, Mass. It's the house she has lived in for 41 years, where she lived a blissful life with her husband Paul, who died in 1994 at age 92. But this week Child has joined 19 family members on the. Maine coast where she will spend her birthday.
After that a furious work schedule resumes, with more touring, gave her viewers an early lesson in how "educational TV" (as it was called then) didn't have to be dry and pontifical. In Julia's it was anything but Back then, The New York Times hailed her series as "campier than farther-out than 'Lost in Space' and more penetrating than 'Meet the Press' as it probes the question: Can a Society Be Great if its Bread Tastes like Kleenex?" By 1997, thank goodness, Julia Child was still at it. Come October, "Baking with Julia" begins its third season on PBS. In the meantime, Child remains a fixture on cable's TV Food Network, which runs "The French Chef," circa early '70s, each Saturday and Sunday at 11 p.m. EDT.
(The channel will mark her birthday Friday with "Just for Julia Day" observances throughout its prime-time schedule, including three "French Chef" half-hours at 6:30, 10 and 10:30 p.m.). To watch her on TV, whether Julia '97 or from a quarter-century ago, is to savor a certain constancy, not just in the topic but in its presenter. Here she is during the Nixon administration about to bone a flounder, which she love-pats as she sets forth its appetizing destiny. Here she is a generation later, a bit stooped by age but no less hearty, celebrating a just-baked blueberry tart "ooooozing its juu-uices." Child readily acknowledges that "cooking is theater," then adds, to "What a wake up call! I wish I'd had this book four years ago." K. Daniel.
Princeton High School Student. Class of '97 find the ANSWERS NEW YORK (AP) She may have broken a lot of rules, but Julia Child lives by this one: Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid of cooking, for instance. What's the worst that could happen? "It's important to remember you can fix almost anything," she was saying last week. "Except a fallen souffle." But what about that unfixable souffle? "Well," she plots with ease, "you could take it out of the pan and cover it with whipped cream and not tell anyone what it was: 'Here's a new chocolate Message: Don't be afraid.
Of cooking or anything else. As she approaches her 85th birthday Friday, Julia Child stays true to a style that seems equal measures of passionate mastery and delicious liberation. It is her grandest recipe. And it gladdens the hearts, minds and stomachs of her public mostly through television, where she has been a presence since "The Beverly Hillbillies" was born promoting possum innards and pickled skunk. However comically revolting they might have sounded, the Clampetts' vittles tweaked the ho-hum cuisine most Americans had fallen victim to.
Then, as "The French Chef," Julia showed us a more adventurous (not to mention mouth-watering) way. The wonder of Julia Child on TV would arise from her utter unsuit-ability for the medium Or so all the rules suggested. For here was a Woman already on the far side of 50 years old, towering an ungainly 6-foot-2, with a voice that seemed capable of lifting weights. Besides, if this was really a cooking show, then where was the foreign fellow wearing a mustache and a toque? But none of that mattered. When "The French Chef" premiered on public television in February 1963, it was the rage.
Child's fancy dishes and plain speaking made her a star that has never dimmed, while she 1997-98 Edition Ohio's fastest growng 1 DEAR DICK: For many years, I really enjoyed the true wit of Groucho Marx on "You Bet Your Life." What can you tell me about his "straight man," George Fenneman? Is he still living? J.A., Oakland, 111. DEAR READER: Fenneman just passed away this past June. He was 77. He was primarily an announcer, from radio days to TV, and just sort of drifted into his career with Groucho. DEAR DICK: I had watched one or two episodes of "The Boys of Twilight" or a name similar to that.
Enjoyed it. Not enough viewers? Wilford Brim-ley and Robert Foxworthy in it Thanks. A. Port St Lucie, Fla. DEAR READER: "The Boys of Twilight" Right, not enough viewers.
Wilford Brim-ley and Richard Farnsworth in it Foxworthy not in it On CBS. Lasted two months in 1992. You're welcome. DEAR DICK: I was told that co*kie Roberts, the TV commentator, had famous parents. Were they in show business? Who were they? Chicago DEAR READER: They were in politics, not show biz.
co*kie is the daughter of two members of Congress, Hale and Lindy Boggs. DEAR DICK: Can you help me with information on one of my favorite movies, "About Mrs. Leslie," with Shirley Booth and Robert Ryan? I can't find it in the video stores, and my local cable company office doesn't have it on their lists. Get a Jump On College Careers In Ohio occupations Career Planning Syndicated columnist M.I.H., Oswego, N.Y. DEAR READER: You can't find it because it isn't there.
That '54 release is another example of a good film that hasn't made it to video. It has been somehow overlooked by the video makers. It's been on TV some, but not much. DEAR DICK: Whatever happened to Patty McCormack, the actress who played the child murderer in the '50s movie "The Bad Is she still alive? Did she play in any other movies? M.G.W., Memphis, Tenn. DEAR READER: She never quite made it as an adult actress, but she tried.
She was in several other movies, among them "Kathy.O." "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" and "The Young Runaways." She is still alive, at 52. DEAR DICK: Are Tim Allen and Pamela Richardson of "Home Improvement" married to each other? Their TV affection seems so real. Also, is Jonathan Taylor Thomas related to Tim Allen? He has the same wry humor and sassy attitude. J.S., Erie, Pa. DEAR READER: No, they are not married to each other.
And young Jonathan is not related to Tun. If they share wry-ness and sassiness, that's a tribute to the casting people.
