Get Christie Love

In the late 60's Diahann Carroll took television by storm with the series Julia. A young single professional mother taking care of her son Corey. In the 70's Theresa Graves became Christie Love in the detective series based on a book by Dorothy Uhnak, The Ledger, Aaron Spelling took the movie and created a series. There was the usual wise cracks, sexy clothing and sexual tension and overtones of an interacial relationship with her boss. Teresa Graves was a dancer on the Comedy Show Laugh In. She was definitely a beauty, but how people confuse her with Pam Grier I'll never know. Pam Grier didn't do television until later in her career. Theresa Graves did a few movies including Old Dracula and Love at First Bite with George Hamilton. Her religious views stirred her in a direction which lead her to turn down roles and her career suffered. In the film Get Christie Love, the acting isn't bad. The dialogue is so so, but all in all its good fun.

I also watched Sports Illustrated 1999 last night. This DVD unlike the previous shoots allow model Heidi Klum to host. I don't find Heidi all that attractive, but she does have a look at times. My favorite models include Kathy Ireland, Roshumba, Cindy Crawford, Veronica Webb, Stephanie Seymour and Iman to name a few. If you have an interest in photographing women this is a good series to watch. Thanks for stopping by, keep an open mind.
