“(It sounds like something my character, Adam Cramer, would have said in the 1962 Roger Corman ahead-of-its-time racial drama The Intruder. Haven’t seen it? You should. It really holds up.) Now where was I? Oh yes, I was offering up a non-racist rule. RULE, TAKE TWO: Never Wear White after Labor Day. Or Any Day until the Following Labor Day. That’s a little better. Now, this story—like all great stories—starts with Marjoe Gortner. Remember Marjoe Gortner? He first came to fame as a c...hild evangelist and faith healer, and at four years old was touted as “the youngest ordained minister in history.” He was the subject of the 1972 Academy Award–winning documentary Marjoe, in which he revealed some of the more lucrative—and fraudulent—aspects of the tent revival business. Marjoe parlayed this fame into an acting career, where he played a psychotic thug in the movie Earthquake, a psychotic thug in When You Comin’ Back, Red Ryder?, and a psychotic thug in the acclaimed TV movie The Marcus-Nelson Murders, which also introduced the world to a detective named Kojak, played by Telly Savalas.MoreLessRead More Read Less
