The California Wigwam Motel was built within the city limits of San Bernardino in 1949. . . a classic that's still going strong! and a little TRIVIA:
Wigwam Village #6 was featured in the second episode of Oprah and Gayle's Big Adventure on Oprah's TV show. . .all i remember is that they didn't stay! what a mistake!!

December 12, 1965 was a pretty good day for rookie Chicago Bears runningback Gale Sayers. He scored six touchdowns!

As far back as I can remember, this song was the one I sang and played constantly on a little record played my folks had given me as a present around 1953. I was only 5-6 at the time, but this song made me so happy! I never did get one though...

In the early 80s, fresh off the directors "Apocalypse Now" spectacle, Francis Coppola decided to make a romantic drama all in his own studio. But the deal was, he'd be using technicians that he wanted to work with, all under his complete control, done inside a portion of an aeroplane. This deal would included Coppola's complete ownership of the 1982 film too. Paramount Pictures though would be handling the distribution. This Paramount deal was shot when the studio wondered what kind of movie it was at the critical premiere. Columbia Pictures was then brought in to handle the release of the ill-fated films acceptance. This was no trouble-fee production as you can tell. The filming budget increased beyond the filmmakers expectations, this which destroyed him financially. Frederick Forrest, Terri Garr, Raul Julia, and Nastassia Kinski - all were brought in to star in the directors feature. But once word got out to the public, critical comments soaked the Zoetrope film with disappointing reviews, right across the board. Mostly pointing towards the $25 million dollar budget, ignoring the actual photography advances shown throughout the film. With this afoot, "One From the Heart" was sent out of the cinema only after a few days. It was a massive set back for Coppola at the time as the film had no chance of finding an audience. Its burdened financial legacy has taken Francis years to overcome. The groundbreaking films production recoopment was met with his future directorial efforts throughout the eighties and nineties. Remember the film "Jack"? The facts are that the motion picture is a technical marvel of colours, effects, all done under Coppola's expertise, focusing with the art of his love for big screen entertainment set in his hands. With his own studio effort, he developed new ways to capture the scene using video and film together. This would enable Francis to cut the scenes during the actual shooting. This progressive method which wasn't heard of at all in Hollywood at the time. Many MTV videos were later shot using Coppola's unfamiliar way of never-before-seen motion photography. With "One from the Heart," the director now had inspired professional movie and television directors with technical cinematically advanced images, captured to show how a story can be shown on a theatre or televised screen. With Coppola's vision, he brought a complete new way to mark the start of music video productions with his original playback method.
