Screen and Stage — Four Classes, and the Film's Own Line

The exact page text, read by your browser's voice.

Academy Awards, Emmy, Tony and Grammy rolls run, one line per class, for any person of this ground

Lead: Academy Awards line, person of this ground: EMPTY. Emmy line: EMPTY. Tony line: EMPTY. Grammy line: EMPTY. The fame sweep's residue — four names into national notice, none a screen or stage laureate — is confirmed class by class against the award rolls, and each empty is printed in its own line. The film line, kept as the film's and not the town's: Prancer (1989), directed by John Hancock and written by Greg Taylor, filmed partly in and around New Carlisle, received NO Academy Award nomination — its Academy line is empty at published strength. Its one published award line is a nomination, not a win, and it belongs to its young lead, not to this ground: Rebecca Harrell was nominated for a Young Artist Award for Best Young Actress Starring in a Motion Picture, and lost to Winona Ryder for Great Balls of Fire!. Prancer is an outside production; its makers are not this town's, and no part of its record is banked here as a town honor.
