Some of Broadway's most memorable songs come from this satire of Elvis Presley's army induction. Conrad Birdie, the teenage idol, is drafted and agrees to sing a farewell song to a devoted fan on TV. Songs include "Kids," "Put on a Happy Face," "We Love You, Conrad." Stars Janet Leigh, Dick Van Dyke, Ann-Margret, Bobby Rydell, and Paul Lynde. 112 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.0, Dolby Digital stereo Surround; Subtitles: English, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, Thai; filmographies; theatrical trailer.
When Elvis-like rock & roll star Conrad Birdie is drafted into the military, the teen nation is united by a contest in which the winner bestows a farewell kiss upon their idol while on the Ed Sullivan Show. Ann-Margret (in her film debut) is the lucky little lady from Sweet Apple, Ohio, who wins the contest, much to the chagrin of her steady beau (Bobby Rydell) and miserable parents (Paul Lynde and Mary LaRoche). Dick Van Dyke and Janet Leigh are an older couple kept from marrying by his meddlesome mother, played to the hilt by Maureen Stapleton. Lightweight but fun, this features an exuberant soundtrack with such memorable ditties as "Put on a Happy Face" and "Kids" and the title track. This is a much better choice than the lackluster, 1995 made-for-TV version. --Rochelle O'Gorman

Spectacular adventure of the birth of the Space Age and America's Mercury astronauts combines sweeping action, humor and human drama. Sam Shepard, Scott Glenn, Ed Harris, Barbara Hershey and Dennis Quaid star; written and directed by Phil Kaufman from Tom Wolfe's novel. 192 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.1, French Dolby Digital Surround; Subtitles: English, French, Spanish; filmographies; production notes; theatrical trailer; scene access.
Philip Kaufman's intimate epic about the Mercury astronauts (based on Tom Wolfe's book) was one of the most ambitious and spectacularly exciting movies of the 1980s. It surprised almost everybody by not becoming a smash hit. By all rights, the film should have been every bit the success that Apollo 13 would later become; The Right Stuff is not only just as thrilling, but it is also a bigger and better movie. Combining history (both established and revisionist), grand mythmaking (and myth puncturing), adventure, melodrama, behind-the-scenes dish, spectacular visuals, and a down-to-earth sense of humor, The Right Stuff chronicles NASA's efforts to put a man in orbit. Such an achievement would be the first step toward President Kennedy's goal of reaching the moon, and, perhaps most important of all, would win a crucial public relations/morale victory over the Soviets, who had delivered a stunning blow to American pride by launching Sputnik, the first satellite. The movie contrasts the daring feats of the unsung test pilots--one of whom, Chuck Yeager, embodied more than anyone else the skill and spirit of Wolfe's title--against the heavily publicized (and sanitized) accomplishments of the Mercury astronauts. Through no fault of their own, the spacemen became prisoners of the heroic images the government created for them in order to capture the public's imagination. The casting is inspired; the film features Sam Shepard as the legendary Yeager, Ed Harris as John Glenn, Dennis Quaid as "Gordo" Cooper, Scott Glenn as Alan Shepard, Fred Ward as Gus Grissom, Scott Wilson as Scott Crossfield, and Pamela Reed and Veronica Cartwright are superb in their thankless roles as astronauts' wives. --Jim Emerson

How to Submit a Photo Story
Research
Which publications will use a photo story on your subject? a) Check WRITER'S MARKET and PHOTOGRAPHER'S MARKET (www.f&wpubs.com). b.) Look up publications you're interested in on Google or at the library or at newsstands. Study several issues. Check mastheads for correct spelling of the current photo or feature editor's name. Make sure that they haven't published your photo story subject in the recent past, nor do they have it scheduled for the near future. (To find out the latter, request their editorial calendar.)
The Slant
Figure out the angle or slant or “hook†of the article, based on your research of the publication and your personal point of view.
Your Research
Research your own subject thoroughly. Illustrate it with meaningful photos.
Query
Write a one or two-page query letter on professional-looking stationery. a.) Format: Typewritten (word processed), in accepted business letter format. Open with "Dear Mr. or Ms. Last Name," not "Dear John or Joan." Spell check, proofreading it as often as necessary, to make it flawless. One typing error or misspelled word can spoil the professional impression you want to create. b) Content: Your first paragraph should provocatively refer to your story idea, with a question, a brief story, a quote, an event, etc…. You must grab the photo editor right away or you've lost him/her. Your next paragraph or two can explain your photo story idea in more detail. Following that, in the next paragraph, say something about yourself, your credits, or whatever else you think the photo editor ought to know to underscore your track record and position to deliver what you promise. Include information about your website and a sampling of on-line photos and their resolution. Your closing paragraph should mention that you look forward to hearing from them.
Contact and Delivery
Most editors welcome a postal query, others prefer email. A Google search of their website will generally inform you of their submission guidelines.
Send out your query letter and sit tight. (Or better, continue researching and sending out other story queries.) It takes anywhere from two to six weeks to hear from a photobuyer on a query like this. (No news is good news.)
The Response
When a photo editor answers: If the answer is "no," be ready with other appropriate markets to send your query off to. If it's “yes,†begin your negotiations to receive payment. If it’s "yes, on spec†(meaning no guarantee of publication and payment, but if you send the piece they promise to give it attention), you might consider taking them up on it, especially if this is your first submission to this market.
The Future
Once you have several photo stories to your credit, you can open many doors by referring to them with a link to your website.

Who painted the trees at Bikini Atoll and why?
When the atomic bomb at Bikini Atoll was being tested, the publicity photos show the palm trees in the foreground painted black and white. Does anybody know why this was done?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Operation_Crossroads_Baker_Edit.jpg
@English, thanks but no - I mean the trees. If you look at the picture, the trees are painted as well as the posts. This may also be a measurement method, but for what?
Yes, a measurement, either to measure how high the waves were, and/or if the trees were uprooted and washed inland they could tell which trees they were and how far they traveled.
