There's a new Willeford website courtesy of Maura McMillan on
the Dennis McMillan site: http://dennismcmillan.com/charleswillefo
- loads of pics, bio- and bibliographical stuff not to
mention lengthy excerpts from all the books.
Meanwhile, the film of his Woman Chaser is getting pretty
excellent reviews all over the place. Here's a nice bit from
a NY Post review:
"Devor's adaptation of Willeford verges on the worshipful,
something even the pulp author might have found ironic. The
screenwriter insisted on word- for-word line readings, laying
down the law on impromptu additions by his star. He was
"fanatical about no improvisation," Devor said.
Warburton, also in attendance at the press conference, had
this take on his director's approach: "He was an absolute
pain in the ass. He was such a stickler about
dialogue."
