Please share your fond memories of this series
I fondly remember Jack Palance as host of the television program " Ripley's Believe It Or Not" ? His daughter Holly co-hosted for a couple of seasons. He gave each segment his dramatic postscript: his eerily breathy reading of the line "believe it ....or not". He was an inviting host who gave dramatic life to each story. The very strange ones and on occasion, the human interest story as well.
One of the stories that really stayed with me was a profile of a man who had hideously deforming tumors on his face and head. Without seeming to be exploitive in the least, the report showed how he conducted his normal everyday affairs refusing to let his deformity prevent him from becoming fully socialized. A man much admired and beloved in his community, he was shown with his family, and attending church services, with insightful interviews as well. And at the end big scary Jack Palance nearly brought me to tears with his moving summary: "sometimes beauty isn't seen with the eye, but felt with the heart".
Does anyone else have memories of that series to share ?
