CLASSIC CINEMA

My Name is Jason Lockard and I love Classic Cinema…. There have been many great comedians in cinema history but only one is so unmistakably recognizable and this month I’m uncovering a comic gem starring this comic legend!
W. C. Fields started in the world of vaudeville as a comedy juggler. He was so good that he quickly rose to fame and when radio was born and vaudeville died Fields was able to make the transition where most were not! He became known as a misanthropic and hard-drinking egotist who remained sympathetic to audiences despite his contempt for dogs, children and women. There was some truth to the misanthropic persona, however. Madge Evans, a friend and actress who appeared in several films during the 1930s, told a visitor in 1972 that Fields so deeply resented intrusions on his privacy by curious tourists walking up the driveway to his Los Angeles home that he would hide in the shrubs by his house and fire BB pellets at the trespassers' legs. Groucho Marx also told a similar story, in his live album An Evening with Groucho.
Our film this month is It’s a Gift starring the iconic Fields plays Harold Bissonette ("pronounced bis-on-ay") a grocery store owner who inherits some money and decides to give up the grocery business, move to California and run an orange grove, much to the dismay of his shrewish wife Amelia. The plot of the film however seems somewhat secondary to the series of routines which make up the film. Over the course of the picture, Harold fails to prevent a blind customer and Baby LeRoy from turning his store into a disaster area; attempts to share a bathroom mirror with his self-centered, high-pitched gargling daughter.......

Born Jason S. Lockard on August 18th 1978 to Rev. W. Scott & Betty Lockard in the little town of Portland In. Pastor Lockard was pastoring Portland Wesleyan Church one of the larger churches in the community! Jason grew up as the typical rowdy preachers kid enjoying television, movies, sports, comics and being carefree.
As Jason grew his parents noticed he had a gift for singing so they tried to get him to use that gift by having him sing in church but Jason didn’t show much interest in getting in front of crowds! When the family moved to New Canton, Virginia Jason [who was 13 years old at this time] was asked to star in the yearly Christmas Musical he agreed that’s when Jason found his love for singing for people....
