...rich, he's mighty--small wonder that J.R., the industrial- strength lord of Dallas, is both a universal figure and a universal symbol of America. So it is that in Britain, Larry Hagman often has to sport a fake mustache. On one trip to Italy, the man who plays "Gei Ar" ducked into his Milan hotel room for some peace and quiet, only to find it crowded with Hagmanic paparazzi who had crawled in through the window. "I can only stay for a day in one place," he explains. "People come up to me everywhere and say, 'I have...
...stars of these shows are not always enthusiastic about retreading old ground. Larry Hagman, now the kingpin of Dallas, refused to re-create his old supporting role for NBC's I Dream of Jeannie: 15 Years Later. Says Star Barbara Eden: "It's dangerous messing around with something that people really liked, to try to repeat it." Dangerous, perhaps, but also potentially lucrative. Perry Mason Returns was the top-rated TV movie for all of 1985; a follow-up is planned for this spring, and up to three more for next season...
SHAKESPEARE'S SCRIPI COMES with everything: incest, murder, madness, invasions, court intrigue, a setting luxurious enough for Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, and an unrivaled richness of language. Ask anyone gazing into Larry "J.R." Hagman's eyes some Friday night: could anyone beat the tale of Claudius (Christopher Keyser) who murders his brother King Hamlet, marries his widow Gertrude (Thea Henry), revels in his incest-purchased court luxury, and dies at the hands of his ungrateful stepson, Prince Hamlet (Andrew Sullivan). Of the plot, I'll say no more--the midwestern English profs who pen Monarch Notes probably have...
Where Duncan indulges his subjects. Wackerbath and Duncan challenge theirs, putting them on the couch for photographic psychoanalysis, squeezing sides out of their subjects that they often would rather not provide. Wackerbarth had to surrender the negatives for his portrait of Larry Hagman that looks far cheaper and sinister than J.R. could ever be. The injury behind the photo of the Illinois Nazis is almost as interesting as the picture itself: a deep woodpancled room with the Nazi's arranged defensively in the rear, conspicuously ignoring or suspiciously eyeing the camera...
...Elsewhere with liver cancer will take a turn for the worse; and Officer Chris Cagney (Sharon Gless) will believe she is pregnant as Cagney & Lacey departs for its summer vacation. Dallas' season finale is still a deep secret, but hints are that the enemies of J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman) may have something ominous in store for the dastardly oilman. Most spectacular of all will be the finish of Falcon Crest's third season this Friday. Much of the cast will board a private plane for Italy to bury the ashes of Julia, the demented daughter of Wine Magnate...
