AHHH.... Autumn in Cannes... where mild breezes blow as the warm Mediterranean sun smiles over this beautiful spot on the Cote d'Azur. There you can feel a timeless sensuality, assuaging a nostalgia for the Mediterranean which since as far back as the 16th century has been a constant theme in many a Northern European's life.
"Now give us lands where the olives grow," Cried the North to the South, "Where the sun with a golden mouth can blow bubbles of grapes down the vineyard row!" Cried the North to the South (to borrow a phrase from the English writer Elizabeth Barret Browning.)
"Cannes," wrote Charles Lentheric, the indispensable and erudite historian of maritime Provence, in 1880, " is a town where you feel no need to work," and where the inhabitants were not interested in the world that lay beyond their shady gardens, or the sheltered balconys of their hotels. Now the world has come to Cannes, chosen to be the Mediterranean headquarters for its annual events, and when you stroll along the Croisette on some warm October day you will hardly share Mr. Lenteric's sentiments. Cannes at festival time blossoms into a cosmopolitan spot. By Josie Cory

•••• Cannes is host to the annual Festival de Cannes, as well as MIDEM, MIP TV and MICOM (Marché International des Programmes de Communication, owned and organized by Reed MIDEM). It's been 32 years since TVI under Cory's ownership first covered MIPCOM in 1987.
•••• Although Cannes has remained the quintessential market place, despite enormous changes in the cinema, television and social media landscape, it was more casual back in 1987, of course. You could hang out with studio executives without much planning or go see a performer in his hotel room and spend the afternoon in discussing the latest video. There was no "French day," the interview period now set aside so French journalists can get their stories before everyone else.

•••• The celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China is an upcoming ceremonial event with a grand military parade as its spotlight to celebrate National Day of the People's Republic of China that is scheduled to take place on October, 1, 2019 in Beijing. General Secretary of the Communist Party, President and Chairman of the Central Military Commission Xi Jinping, who will be the guest of honor, will give the holiday address to the nation and Chinese expatriates abroad before inspecting the formations along Chang'an Avenue.
•••• It is undisputable that China has grown in a shortest period of time since its 'open door policy' into a global power. Troy Cory was among the first international entertainers and the first American entertainer to perform in the People's Republic of China, appearing at the 1988 Shanghai TV Festival, and continuing over the following years his multi-city stage performances in Beijing, Anshan, Harbin, Fouzhou, Guangzhou, and as far as Longyang bordering Guangdong to the south.
•••• Back then, there were no high rise buildings, few cars, bicycles ubiquituous still lining the streets and the airports in Shanghai and Beijing unimpressive constructions. A small banner on arrival announced "Welcome to Beijing." Houses in narrow lanes were small and people's dress was modest and in muted colors. Wherever we went there was a group of Chinese officials always accompanying us and showing up in our hotel for meetings at unannounced times.
Troy Cory at the Chinese Consulate General Los Angles

•••• Troy had the time of his life performing in front of 20,000 or more and his performances at the Shanghai TV festival being televised on national Television CCTV. A crowd of concert goers were anxiously waiting outside for autographs and often after the performance he was led out at different exits of the round concert hall. Not to forget this was late 80s and early 90s and audiences were eager to hear a singer from the United States. The Chinese were unforgettably hospitable to us, and treated the Shanghai TV Festival performers with a lit up Bund, the waterfront promenade by the Huangpu river. I am grateful for the experience of a "former China," and to have been able to see a side of China before its meteoric rise to an industrial powerhouse and the world' second-largest economy.
•••• We could see a change already unfolding during our China tours in 2000 and 2004, and back 1997, when attending a press conference Al Gore was holding in Beijing before we travelled on to Shanghai to climb the Shanghai Television Tower for the first time when it just opened to the public.

•••• In Life's current Bicentennial issue, radio checks in, at #86 on the hot "100 Events That Shaped America," 19 buttons behind Bell's telephone. Erroneously, Life lists Guglielmo Marcon's dots and dashes as the first wireless broadcast, a fable echoed by the World Almanac and Encyclopedia Britannica. It's a forgivable mumpsimus, since the evidence offered on the following pages has not, until now, appeared in any national publication.
•••• The birth of broadcasting is a bizarre soap opera saga, a lacrymal legend of mystery, machination, ephemeral enshrinement, decline, disillusionment and disaster. It's denouncement dissolves six miles north of Murray, Kentucky, in a two-room shanty constructed of pine and cornstalks, where radio's uncelebrated architect is discovered 48 hours after his death, his records scattered, his equipment destroyed, his brain partly eaten by rats. Even local radio fails to mention his demise. He is Nathan Beverly Stubblefield, the man history over-heard and then overlooked.

Born in Waseca, Minnesota, Preiss began his career in the newsroom at WCCO-TV in Minneapolis as a sportscaster. He later moved to Los Angeles, where he began teaching television courses at the University of Southern California. ••• It was there, in 1955 when Al Preiss had a vision -- a vision that materialized in 1956, when he and his colleague Sam Donaldson launched TELEvisionFilm Magazine. ••• Both Al and Sam had an honest conviction that, "the television film industry had reached a stage where it needed a national publication that would analyze and put into focus -- the news, issues and problems which particularly concern the production and distribution of film for television. ••• When Al Preiss died in August 1986, the television industry lost an untiring advocate and a giant of a good friend. The tall, wonderfully amiable publisher truly seemed to do it all -- attending nearly every press conference, speech, convention and reception, and was never seen without his trademark clear plastic briefcase. You turned around at these functions and there was Preiss, taking notes, talking animatedly, telling stories, doing his job. One that he not only loved, but felt was necessary and important. He did it all with the help of his charming wife of 25 years, Sylvia, who was editor of the magazine during the years of 1985 and 1986. ••• The controlling interest of the magazine, with all of its archival history was purchased in 1987 by the Cory's. • Contributing Journalists: Josie Cory, Gary Sunkin, Byan Lukas, Donna Jeffries, Valerie Milano, Peter Allman, Don Butler, Troy Cory-Stubblefield, Barry Seybert, Victor Caballero, Mike Lipman, Gordon Talbott, William Adrian, Ginger Adams, Larry Leverett, Bernard Schwartz, Bob Fisher, Dr. Frank Iezzi, Ph.D., Robin Strausberg, Mark Schaefer, Brad Ashton, Jim Baker, Anika Michalowska, Theo Pirard, Richard Mahler, Bill McCloskey, Bill Peterson, John Chittock, Tony Chiaveillo, Moira Burnett, John Sanders, Mark Trost, Gillian Davies, Jonathan Ames, Peter Knight, Anton van Casteren, Jim Hodgetts, Martin Jackson, Jack Loftus, Peter Warner, Christian Williams, Alex Ben Block, Bob Foster, Seth Goldstein, Bob Marisch, Jefferson Graham, Jack Anderson. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
