Éric Serra

Composer · Known for Lucy, Léon: The Professional, The Fifth Element

Éric Serra (born 9 September 1959) is a French musician and composer. He is a frequent collaborator of film director Luc Besson. Éric Serra was born in Saint-Mandé. His father Claude was a famous French songwriter in the 1950s and '60s, and so Éric was thus exposed to music and its production at a young age. His mother died when he was just seven years old. In the early 1980s, Éric Serra met director Luc Besson and was asked to score his first film, Le Dernier Combat (1983). Serra has scored all of Besson's directed films to date, except Angel-A (2005) (scored by Anja Garbarek), and several that Besson has written, such as Wasabi. In 1995, Serra was chosen to compose the score to the James Bond film GoldenEye, and produced a much more modern-sounding avant-garde soundtrack than had been used in previous Bond films. It met with mixed reviews from film critics. While Serra's score has been seen by some as highly innovative, many Bond fans have criticized it and often highlighted the lack of the classic, instantly recognizable Bond leitmotif originally created by Monty Norman and John Barry. The GoldenEye producers later hired John Altman to score the tank chase sequence, which incorporated a traditional arrangement of the Bond theme.David Arnold would succeed Serra as Bond composer until 2008. Serra is sometimes known as RXRA due to the French pronunciation of his name. His composition Little Light of Love on the soundtrack of the film The Fifth Element is credited to RXRA. Serra has been the partner of Australian model Jodi Luschwitz for 17 years, with whom he has two children: Ashani and Mitivaï. From 1980 to 1988, Éric Serra played bass guitar for French singer Jacques Higelin. Serra is also a songwriter, notably having written "It's Only Mystery" for the film Subway, "My Lady Blue" for Le Grand Bleu and "Little Light of Love" for The Fifth Element. In 1998 he released an album of rock music titled RXRA which resembles the artist's name when pronounced as initial letters in French. Serra composed the music for the 2008 Las Vegas Criss Angel/Cirque Du Soleil show 'Criss Angel: Believe'. Serra has spent little time in front of the camera, choosing to work behind the scenes instead. However, on French television he has made a number of appearances performing music, and notably appeared in the Luc Besson film Subway in which he plays 'Enrico the bassist'.

Roberta Shore

Cast · Known for The Virginian

Born on April 7, 1943, in Monterey Park, California, Roberta Jymme Schourup quickly gave way to the name Roberta Shore, at a young age, as an actress and singer on film and TV. Raised in San Gabriel, California, Roberta began her career at age ten, singing country western songs at supermarket openings with Tex Williams, who invited her to join his weekly TV show from Knotts Berry Farm. This is when she changed her stage name to "Jymme Shore". She subsequently joined The Pinky Lee Show (1950), NBC's number one rated children's daily television program at the time. The well-dressed, confident-looking teen actress with the pretty brunette bangs gained her best notice, however, when Disney Studios hired her as a snooty dating nemesis for Annette Funicello in a couple of the star's showcases. Because the name Jymme was often confused as a male, Walt Disney himself suggested she use her name Roberta. Prominently feature in Annette (1958), which was an episodic series culled from "The Mickey Mouse Club" files, and the highly popular feature film The Shaggy Dog (1959), both of which had Roberta fighting Annette over the affections of Tim Considine. Roberta also performed the theme song for that movie. She appeared many times on episodes of The Mouseketeers, although she herself was not a Mouseketeer as she was deemed too tall. She provided voices for some of their animated projects and, as a singer, was featured on the Disney label, including songs that recreated her distinctive squeaky vocal effect. As she blossomed, she played a school friend for Elinor Donahue, during one season of Father Knows Best (1954); scored some points playing Henrietta, better known as "Hank", a tomboyish teen on The Bob Cummings Show (1961), a short-lived 1961 TV series starring Robert Cummings; and was one of a plethora of girlfriends for Ricky Nelson's on his family's show, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (1952). But the most notable role for Roberta on a TV series was as "Betsy Garth" on The Virginian (1962) for its first three seasons. A support player in other "young love" films, such as A Summer Place (1959), Blue Denim (1959) and Because They're Young (1960), nothing much clicked for Roberta, however, to push her into the front ranks. Raised a Mormon, she eventually left the limelight altogether in 1965 and focused entirely on raising her family. She and her actor husband, Ron Frederickson, moved to Salt Lake City and little was heard from her again. A disc jockey on a Utah radio station at one time in the 1980s, decades later she was cast as Ishmael's wife, a major supporting role in Gary Rogers' The Book of Mormon Movie, Volume 1: The Journey (2003) movie in 2003.

In 1935 she was hired by the controversial German actor and Director of the Prussian State Theatre under the Third Reich, Gustav Gründgens. They were married from 1936-46, until their divorce. Speaking years after the marriage had ended Hoppe stated, "He was my love, but never my great love, that was work."[1] One of the characters in the film Mephisto was reportedly based on her. Hoppe made no secret of her contacts with the Nazi elite in the 1930s/40s, including being invited to dinner by Hitler.[2] Her role in Der Schimmelreiter (The Rider of the White Horse, 1934) made her famous almost overnight, while her "Aryan" face made her a darling of the Nazi elite.[1] Later Hoppe would label this period of her life as "the black page in my golden book".[1] During her time acting at the home of the Prussian State Theatre, the Schauspielhaus, Hoppe developed her analytical approach to acting, which she stated consisted in her "taking apart every sentence" and giving the use of language a brilliance. This method was to be associated with Hoppe throughout her working life.[1] In 1946 her only child, Benedikt Johann Percy Gründgens, was born. Four years later after her divorce from Gründgens, Hoppe had a great success as Blanche Dubois in Tennessee Williams's A Streetcar Named Desire, and increasingly played avant-garde roles, written by authors such as Heiner Muller (Quartett, 1994) and Thomas Bernhard, who became her partner in private life as well.

Tabb Carter

Tabb was born in Bushwick, Brooklyn in 1960. Nine years later, his family moved to Freeport, Long Island, where he lived with his mother, grandmother and uncle. Except for a few cameos, Tabb’s father was not in the picture. As a child, Tabb says he became easily irritated by his peers. Ultimately, he shut himself off from others. “I wanted to be a hermit,” Tabb recalls. “I wanted to be the only person on earth.” At his mother’s insistence, Tabb attended Queens College but did not graduate. Instead, Tabb decided to pursue a career with the railroad, his first love. He was eventually hired by Amtrak, where he worked in the towers as a Block Operator controlling traffic. One day, Tabb became extremely agitated at work. He felt overworked and underappreciated – and he started to hear negative voices: “You’re not gonna keep this job. You’re gonna lose this job!” Ultimately, those voices got the best of him, and Tabb lost control. He tossed everything off his desk and damaged a machine. Consequently, Tabb was fired. At his mother’s urging, Tabb went to see a psychiatrist, and he was eventually diagnosed with bipolar schizophrenia. With the aid of impulse control disorder medication and psychiatric help, Tabb got a handle on his condition. Now, Tabb refers to himself as a “mental health consumer.” With his railroad career done, Tabb needed a second act. In the early 90s, Tabb got his cue via a New York Times classified ad: “Actors needed no experience necessary.” Tabb, who had always been interested in theater, responded. Tabb was interviewed, photographed and sent out on assignments. For his first major film, he played a subway rider with Al Pacino in Carlito’s Way. (Tabb didn’t make the film’s final cut, which is often the case with extras.) Since, Tabb has appeared in hundreds of projects, everything from student films to commercials to the relatively recent Jason Bateman film, The Family Fang, in which he plays a department store elf. Tabb also played an elf in a Black & Decker commercial. For his 30 Rock appearance, in the Season 3 debut, Tabb’s line wasn’t in the original script, but Alec Baldwin thought the scene was lacking, and he suggested a line for Tabb. In the scene, which took place in Central Park, Baldwin and Tabb play mailroom employees. “And what I’m saying is don’t dress for the job you have, dress for the job you want to have, so now Manny …” says Baldwin, and then Tabb picks up the line: “…Tomorrow I’ll show up for work dressed as a Mexican wrestler” replies Manny, Tabb’s character. It’s a great little moment, and earned mention on IMDB and AVClub.

Cast · Known for Little House on the Prairie

Katherine "Scottie" MacGregor (born Dorlee Deane McGregor; January 12, 1925 – November 14, 2018) was an American actress, best known for her role as Harriet Oleson in Little House on the Prairie. Katherine MacGregor was born Dorlee Deane McGregor on January 12, 1925, in Glendale, California, to Ralph S. McGregor and Beatrice E. Willard. When Katherine was a child, her mother Beatrice moved the family to Fort Collins, Colorado, where they lived most of Katherine's early life. She graduated from Northwestern University with a major in drama and moved to New York City in 1949. She was hired by the Arthur Murray Dance Studios as a dance instructor. She studied acting under N. Richard Nash, Sanford Meisner, and Stella Adler. She did summer stock in Lebanon, Pennsylvania as Dorlee Deane McGregor but switched to using the stage name Scottie MacGregor as her acting career advanced. When she adopted the use of Katherine as her given name is unclear but she switched from using ‘Scottie’ as she matured in age on the advice of her manager. Beginning in the 1950s, as Scottie MacGregor, she worked in theatre on and off Broadway in New York City and other locations in plays such as The Seven Year Itch and Handful of Fire, and won such uncredited parts as "a longshoreman's mother" (On the Waterfront); "Alice Thorn" (The Traveling Executioner), and "Miss Boswell" (The Student Nurses). She appeared in numerous episodes of various television series: Love of Life (1956), The Secret Storm, The Nurses, Play of the Week (1959), East Side/West Side (1963), Mannix (1970–71), Emergency! (1972), Ironside (1972, 1974), and All in the Family (1973), as well as the two 1981 "Heroes vs. Villains" episodes of Family Feud hosted by Richard Dawson. She had roles in the TV movies, The Death of Me Yet (1971), The Girls of Huntington House (1973), and Tell Me Where It Hurts (1974). MacGregor's best-known role was from 1974 to 1983 in NBC's Little House on the Prairie as Harriet Oleson, the general store owner's wife and a comedic part. MacGregor's favorite description of her character in Little House came in a fan letter from Minnesota in the 1970s, in which Mrs. Oleson was described as "the touch of pepper in the sweetness of the show". In 1979, due to the popularity of Little House in Spain, MacGregor was invited to Madrid, Spain, and appeared on RTVE's 625 Lineas and Ding Dong La Cocina programs. After Little House on the Prairie, she withdrew from screen productions in favor of local theater. She dedicated herself to the Hindu religion, and to teaching acting to children at the Wee Hollywood Vedanta Players, before finally retiring in the early 2000s. In 2014, she did an in-depth interview about her life and career for the book Prairie Memories by Patrick Loubatiere. She was married to actor Bert Remsen from 1949 to 1950 and to actor, director, and teacher Edward G. Kaye-Martin, 14 years her junior, from August 1969 to October 1970. She had no children. While recovering from alcoholism, MacGregor converted to Hinduism. She was unable to appear in the series finale of Little House on the Prairie, because she was on a pilgrimage to India at the time of the episode's filming. MacGregor died on November 14, 2018, at the age of 93, at the Motion Picture & Television Country House and Hospital in Woodland Hills, California. No cause was given.
