MOVIE SLIPS

There were a few omissions in Calendar’s recent spread on the movies of ‘87, reports Pat H. Broeske, including:

“Fatal Beauty”--Whoopi Goldberg stars as a big-city detective--a Dirty Harriet-type. Tom Holland directs for MGM. No release date yet.

“Fate of a Hunter”--World War II drama about the relationship between a downed American pilot (Chris Makepeace) and the elder of a Japanese village (Pat Morita). Paul Almond directs for MGM. May release.

We also erroneously identified the Albert Pyun-directed “Down Twisted.” (We called it “Dangerously Close,” which was the title of Pyun’s last movie.) The Cannon film (“an ‘80s damsel-in-distress-adventure, a crazy Mexican melodrama and a deadpan comedy--all rolled into one”) opens in February.

Skouras Pictures also reports a new title for the story of expatriate poet Gertrude Stein and her companion Alice B. Toklas. It’s now “Waiting for the Moon” (not the earlier title, “On the Trail of the Lonesome Pine”). Due in the spring.

And, our apologies to Monique Gabrielle--one of the stars of “Deathstalker II” (due this summer from Concorde/New Horizon). We identified her as a former Penthouse Pet of the Year; turns out she was a Pet of the Month.
