The "Back Roads" movie ad was v/o by Mark Elliot, "The Child Stealer" movie promo was v/o by the late Ernie Anderson and the ending v/o for the "Eyewitness" movie ad was the late Howard Reig.

Loved Bruno when I was a kid, but hated seeing him with that funky toupee/weave or whatever the hell he did to his head.

Correct

[fromthesidelines]

"Madame X"...ah, the old chestnut about a woman who has a kid out of wedlock, only to have that kid become an attorney and defend her against a murder charge, never realizing WHO she really is until the very end...filmed at least four times theatrically (two in the silent era), the last with Lana Turner in 1966. Tuesday Weld in the '81 TV version? Well, the gender switch in her illegitimate child from boy to girl was a novel update, anyway,,.
