and to point out the very positive aspects of movie-making here.

Several people from Kootenai Brown's sound and sound editing have been nominated for the prestigious Genie awards. One of ° them is Ingrid Rosen of Decp Cove, who did her first produc- tion with Gary Payne on an old CBC-TV effort back in the early 70s. This is the first time that they have worked together since then,

Speaking of Donnelly, | finally had a chance to catch him on Channel 12 the other night doing a solid role in the heart-breaking drama, After The Promise, with Hollywood’s Mark Harmon as a destitute father of four motheriess sons in the 1930s. The movie was made in Vancouver and it’s another winner for B.C. film- making. :

Mark Harmon, by the way, was

once chosen by Hoilywood -

pollsters as the handsomest man in the world. The item is that BC Lions quarterback, Doug Flutie, who just celebrated birthday

“number 29 on Wednesday, is an

amazing fook-alike!...

Another very happy fellow is West Van waterfront dweller Roy Lisogar. .

Last Wednesday night he hosted a giant party at his Century Plaza . Hotel to celebrate the completion of $100,000 of renovation to his Mardi Gras Club.

_It’s big, bright and extremely
