SUMMARY:Stranger Than Fiction: Three Lives Too Wild for Hollywood to Invent
DESCRIPTION:Stranger Than Fiction: Three Lives Too Wild for Hollywood to Invent\nSome true stories are so outlandish they seem like they must be fiction. Yet a few real-life characters have lived such unusual\, bizarre\, and unforgettable lives that Hollywood couldn’t resist turning them into films. Join me for a brand-new multimedia program\, Stranger Than Fiction\, where we’ll explore the incredible true stories of three men whose unlikely paths became the stuff of movie legend. \nStranger Than Fiction: Edward D. Wood Jr.\nWidely known as “the worst director in the history of Hollywood\,” Ed Wood’s movies were so spectacularly bad that they became cult classics! \nHis relentless enthusiasm\, eccentric vision\, and unshakable optimism inspired Tim Burton’s award-winning film Ed Wood. But who was the real man behind the infamous Plan 9 from Outer Space? \nChuck Barris\nThe eccentric creator of The Gong Show claimed in his autobiography Confessions of a Dangerous Mind that he lived a double life as a CIA assassin. George Clooney brought his strange story to the screen\, leaving audiences to wonder: \nWas Chuck Barris a master of entertainment or a master of fabrication? Or is it possible he was telling the truth about being a CIA killer? \nFrank Abagnale Jr.\nA con artist so clever he posed as a Pan Am pilot\, a doctor\, and a lawyer—all before the age of 21—Frank Abagnale’s exploits became the basis for the hit film Catch Me If You Can. \nBut how much of his thrilling story is true\, and how much has been embellished over time? \nA Multimedia Journey You Won’t Forget\nStranger Than Fiction combines storytelling\, film clips\, and fascinating analysis to separate fact from fantasy. It’s a fast-paced\, fun\, and eye-opening look at three unconventional figures whose stories still captivate audiences. \nCOST\nThe program is available for a minimum contribution of $5.00\, which helps support my work and allows me to continue offering engaging content. \nPAYMENT OPTIONS \nCash/Check\nPayable to: Barry Bradford\nMail to:\nBarry Bradford\nP.O.
