What They're Saying in Palm Springs About THE KENNEDYS. Click here for news from California's Desert Gossip Pros

Those permissive hosts at K-News talk radio in gossipy "sin city" (glamorous PALM SPRINGS, California), invited Blood Moon's president, Danforth Prince, to get up front and personal about his company’s newest celebrity exposé, THE KENNEDYS, All the Gossip Unfit to Print. 

Here's what the biggest radio mogul in the Coachella Valley, "Bulldog Bill" Feingold, elicited on July 25, 2011, about marital infidelity, the presidency, and the hot new book that assembles into 426 photo-studded pages the embarrassments and indiscretions of seven key members of America's most entertaining (and horniest) political tribe.

Danforth was in Palm Springs in the aftermath of receiving a literary award from the HOLLYWOOD BOOK FESTIVAL for this book. His tour also involved working with a film crew for the production of Blood Moon's newest promotional video, now out and available on YouTube.com: JACKING WITH JFK IN HOLLYWOOD, Where the President Played: a cinematic preview of THE KENNEDYS, All the Gossip Unfit to Print. 

Here's what Danforth had to say about the book, Palm Springs, and the brouhaha associated with the Golden (50th) Anniversary of JFK's ascension to power.

Blood Moon Releases History's First Cinematic Overview of "Gay Life in New York's Forgotten Outer Borough" as its contribution to PRIDE 2011

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Blood Moon Productions, a Staten Island-based publishing enterprise that focuses on celebrity biographies and film guides, proudly announces the release of a 27-minute documentary and infomercial it filmed at the June 4, 2011 celebration of Gay Pride in Staten Island.   To see the film, click here    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN00Mw9wQ6E

The project was conceived, scripted, and narrated by Blood Moon's president and founder, Danforth Prince, who was designated in early June as 2011's PUBLISHER OF THE YEAR by the directors of THE BEACH BOOK FESTIVAL, an association of literary critics and booksellers from coastal communities across America.

As stated by Prince, "Blood Moon already has a history of crafting videotaped infomercials and documentaries as a means of advancing public recognition of its literary products. As such, we were intrigued by the cinematic possibilities of a street celebration that included aspects of both a trade fair and a social revolution. And how else could someone not physically present watch an articulate interaction between the Unitarian Church, the winner of the 'Miss New York' beauty pageant, and Dykes on Bikes?"

"Staten Island is the least visible and perhaps the most conservative borough within the otherwise liberal mass of New York City," Prince continued. "But based on this month's battle for marriage equality in New York State, and the extroverted passions of the island's gays and lesbians, this film has implications that go way beyond the borough."

"Insofar as we know," Prince continued, "no one else has ever attempted a coherent cinematic overview of Staten Island's gay subculture. And it was the clearly expressed passion and politicized fervor of the people we interviewed that became the most surprising and most gratifying part about making this film."

Blood Moon's GAY LIFE IN NEW YORK'S FORGOTTEN OUTER BOROUGH supplements other infomercials it will release this month, including BOOK EXPO 2011, BLOOD MOON'S VIEW FROM THE FLOOR. A 60-minute documentary filmed in May, 2011 at the world's largest literary marketplace, BOOK EXPO AMERICA, it's the newest installment in a series of lessons about how a small press or an author can navigate the shark-infested waters of the book trades.

During the crafting of both of these films, Blood Moon was assisted in the direction, editing, and camera work by Polish-born cinematographer PIOTR KAJSTURA, winner of several awards and grants from, among others, the Tourism Board of South Carolina.

A video description of Blood Moon's new biography DAMN YOU, Scarlett O'Hara

Listening to Night Music with Humphrey Bogart

NEWS FROM THE BLOODY FRONT: OH GAWD! I said to myself at the prospect of another weekend tweaking the majestic and about-to-be-popped-into-the-toaster Blood Moon release that's only a wee bit late, HUMPHREY BOGART, THE MAKING OF A LEGEND, by Darwin Porter.

Proudly, I truthfully and verily say, the book is brilliant. An historical insight, 'tis, into the phenomenon of Humphrey Bogart, a functioning alcoholic with an unfortunate physicality, a lisp, and an inconvenient sense of intellectual independence, who, amazingly, got famous when many dozens of his immediate cohorts were relegated two or three generations ago to the dustbin of entertainment-industry oblivion.

My prediction: This book will become a reference source staple, a title for library shelves as an important addition to the understanding of one of America's premier icons. Indexed, authoritative, and certainly not bland, the book is piquant, reputable, and supremely interesting, especially for Entertainment-Industry buffs.

We're shipping it off for manufacture on Wednesday of this upcoming week at the very latest. The printers (McNaughton & Gunn, and a fine outfit they are, indeed), tell us it takes from five to six weeks to manufacture, perhaps less. So, with the understanding that Blood Moon's bleary-eyed but endlessly charming backoffice editorial staff has been humping it long and very very hard, please know that HUMPY IS ON HIS WAY!

Miss Scarlett O'Hara is I.D.'d, worldwide, as a "hot mess" and a "slutty bisexual." In the aftermath, SB's of the world say "Hooray for Vivien!"

Blood Moon's upcoming release of Damn You Scarlett O'Hara provoked worldwide newspaper coverage this week as three major newspapers (The NY Post, London's Sunday Times, and The Daily Mail) previewed their observation that Vivien Leigh was more promiscuous and less emotionally stable than anyone except Porter, Moseley, and dozens of firsthand witnesses to her life had ever realized.

We're delighted with the advance publicity for this title, and we're particularly honored with the interviewing pizzazz of Mr. John Harlow, the Los Angeles correspondent for London's SUNDAY TIMES, who was the creative engine behind a well-written story that was later picked up by two of his newspaper's competitors. Bravo to John Harlow, clever cad and brilliant historian that he is.

The least restrained of the three stories was the one within the New York Post, wherein Vivien was identified as a "slutty bisexual" and a "hot mess."

A hipster friend of mine, Meghan, a smart, capable, hardworking, and very hip 28-year-old lifeguard at one of New York City's public beaches, laughed when she heard the "slutty bisexual" reference as it applied to the divine Vivien Leigh. "Half the women I know in New York might identify themselves that way," she said, "and your job, Dan, will involve glamorizing that term as a badge of honor.

To that effect, and in honor of the divine Vivien Leigh, I salute the other slutty bisexuals of this wide world. The spirit of Vivien Leigh, I've been told by the book's co-author, Roy Moseley, is laughing uproariously over this, "her green eyes filled with merriment." GO VIVIEN! SB's Unite. Who, one wonders, will be the first to manufacture the T-shirts?
