Stefanie Powers - If one measures Hollywood
stars by such traditional markers as grace, beauty and sophistication, then
Stefanie Powers harkens back to Hollywood’s Golden Era when stars were the
essence of what everybody dreamed to be. And if one measures the quality of a
person by their sense of dedication, their concern for the world around them, by
their ability to step outside themselves and see the greater importance of
community and society, then Stefanie Powers exemplifies the ‘new Hollywood’
— smart, charismatic, committed and, yes, sexy.
Actress Stefanie Powers has combined a
natural curiosity and passion for knowledge, world travel and diverse cultures
into both an award-winning acting career and an equally active life of heartfelt
philanthropic work. The cornerstone of that work is the William Holden Wildlife
Foundation, a public charity dedicated to the preservation of wild animals,
which Stefanie helped to found in honor of the late actor and for which she
serves as president.
FanSource.com is pleased to exclusively offer select specially priced Hollywood Walk of Fame "Original Stardust" framed collectibles.

Synopsis: Father and Son dynamics come into focus as a troupe of actors, and others, gather to rehearse and perform a stage-reading of a famous play in…three days.

Without a net, they galvanize during rehearsal while the lead actor manager, both as himself and his character of Hamlet, grapples with the unexpected task of coming to terms with his powerful and famous father. A ‘cliff notes’ examination of one of the best plays ever written by the best cast they could find, including three famous sons of three very famous actors; reality documentary weaves with neo-classic drama to create an original take on a most primal story, all taking place over … Three Days..
The film was screened on May 3, 2011 as part of the BRIT WEEK Premeire Screenings at the Landmark Theatre in Los Angeles. For more information, please visit www.threedaysofhamlet.com.

Synopsis:
The United Network Command for Law and Enforcement has a new agent in its struggle with THRUSH: The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. The girl is April Dancer (Stefanie Powers) who, assisted by partner Mark Slate (Noel Harrison) and guided by chief Alexander Waverly (Leo G. Carroll), travels the globe on assignments, using her martial-arts and espionage prowess to combat foes. This spoofy 29-Episode Spy Series in a 8-Disc Set includes a dossier of top-level guest stars – Gladys Cooper, Wally Cox, Dom DeLuise, Boris Karloff, Peggy Lee, Pernell Roberts, Gena Rowlands and Leslie Uggams among them. April Dancer (with Mary Ann Mobley playing the role) was first introduced to fans in The Moonglow Affair episode of The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
The 4 titles released at the time were the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th-produced telefilms: Hart to Hart Returns (1993), Home is Where the Hart Is (1994), Crimes of the Hart (1994), and Secrets of the Hart (1995). At the time we mentioned how strange it seemed that Sony had skipped the 4th production, 1994's "Old Friends Never Die". Well, we're pleased to tell you that the studio has filled in that hole, and is now offering an MOD-DVD release of Hart to Hart - Old Friends Never Die, sold mainly here at Sony's online store. There's an online trailer there as well. Fans will be pleased to note that Sony says this item is "newly remastered". Cost is $19.94, same as for the other four offerings.
The 4th Hart to Hart movie, Old Friends Never Die (1994) is now available on DVD from Sony Pictures Movies-on-Demand, and has been newly re-mastered. Watch the trailer below, and Click Here for more information and/or to order your copy.
