Final, final, we keep saying final...

And obviously, we don't quite mean it. I was in Newport last evening to scan some great vintage photos in the personal archives of Betty "Boop" Blake, now 94, and as charming and delightful as ever -- and what a memory. She shared some shots of Bailey's, the Glamour Girls, Palm Beach, Southampton and more that we would never find anywhere else. She will be our guest of honor at the
Newport premiere, 2 p.m. August 14 at Salve Regina University.
And very early this morning, Dave and I were at Brown University for some exteriors to illustrate Eileen's Brown family ancestry.
And, yes, we have at least one more trip to Newport... this is the price of being two perfectionists.

HEDGEROW approaches...

With the premiere now less than two months away, we are intensely editing. I spent a couple of hours today with Dave, pictured here, in the studio helping refine the opening sequence, Folks, it's starting to look kick-ass.
Information about the 7 p.m., Tuesday, Aug. 10 world premiere at Vets Auditorium in Providence can be found through this ticket link, and as always, more is at the official movie site.
And please join the Facebook World Premiere events page. There will also be a Newport premiere at 2 p.m., Aug. 14, Bazarsky Lecture Hall, Salve Regina University.
