Elvis and me airs tonight

Elvis in the 1981 NBC movie Elvis and the Beauty Queen. For the February sweeps, Elvis and Me goes up against the CBS miniseries The Windmills of the Gods.

ABC's 1979 movie Elvis was pitted against block. buster movies on the other networks. CBS had Gone With the Wind and NBC had One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Elvis handily beat both movies and became one of the highest-rated TV movies.

Walters began work on the movie in Canada, which doubled for Germany, where Priscilla met Presley when she was 14. Priscilla’s father, an Air Force officer, was stationed at Weisbaden and Elvis’ house was in nearby Bad Nauheim.

The movie was also filmed in Las Vegas, but the crew never got to Presley's home in Memphis. Presley's estate did not want to shut down the home, a mecca for fans, especially last year during the 10th anniversary of his death.

Priscilla Presley, who cur. rently stars in Dallas, and daughter Lisa Presley will appear at the beginning of the movie. Priscilla Presley was also a co-executive pro- ducer.

Soap slips

MONTREAL (CP) — The Canadian TV hockey soap, Lance et compte (He Shoots, He Scores), continues to seore with francophone aud- iences while missing the net in English Canada.

According to ratings re- leased this week by A.C Neilsen, the series’ French version is the most popular TV program in Quebec. When the program began its second season on Radio-Can- ada on Jan. 7, it drew about 2.6 million viewers, or an 84 share — based on percentage of sets in use — of the aud ience.

The CBC aired the same episode on Jan. 9, and Neil sen says the program's aud. ience that night’ was about 1.3 million or a 17 share.

CALGARY (CP) — With just a week to go before the start of the 1988 Winter Oly- pies, there's an air of anxious anticipation in Calgary.

Years of preparation and millions of dollars have been spent for 16 days of comp- etition that begin next Sat- urday.

Opening ceremonies were held Friday at the Olympic Village, temporary home to about 1,700 athletes and another 900 coaches and offi- cials during the Games. Workmen are putting the final bits together at the giant media centre in the midst of Stampede Park.

Ordinary Calgarians seem to be getting fired up. Ped- estrians sport Olympic pins, parkas and sweaters. Almost 10,000 people have volun- teered to work at the Games,

The city is facing a cruel cold snap that has dropped daytime high temperatures to -20 and left the nights frigid at -80. That has raised concerns among officials worried about ill-prepared spectators.

An hour's drive west of the city, at Mount Allan, where the Alpine skiing events are to be held, the weather has caused an odd twist,

There have been com- plaints for years that Mount Allan was a bad choice for the Olympics because it is notor- jously bare of snow in the winter. Last year, pre-Olym- pic events were left in tur- moil because of warm wea- ther and melting snow. This, year, there's almost too much snow.

The brilliant Olympic ban- ners festooning Calgary streets have proved a tempt- ing target for souvenir hunt- ers. At least five people have been charged with stealing or trying to steal Olympic ban- ners.

There is a last-minute rush to hire people to work at con- cessions during the Games. College and university stu- dents willing to work as waiters, waitresses or bar- tenders are finding many jobs available.

Games officials, known as the “name police,” were not amused and informed the organizer he couldn't use the Olympics name. Unfazed, he immediately announced plans for a Miss Nude 0-Word contest.

The Games have also at- tracted counterfeiters. Bogus U.S. $100 bills have turned up in Calgary and police are alerting merchants.

The Games run Feb. 13-28. The 1,700 athletes from 57 countries are to compete in bobsled, luge, ski jumping, figure skating, cross-country skiing, biathlon, hockey and speed skating.

TERRA NOVA MOTOR INN

MONTREAL (CP) — Actor-singer Noel Harrison was once Hollywood's flavor of the month, but he has few fond memories of his show-biz heyday.

“I gave up on being a celebrity,” he says with a soft British accent. “Being a hot property in Hollywood meant invitations to all the drama and variety shows. And the game shows. They'd ask me, ‘Will you do Hollywood Squares on Sunday? And Id say no, I want to stay home with my kids.”

Harrison, in Montreal to do a one-man show on singer-poet Jacques Brel, was one of the|many long-haired, guitar-strumming pop stars who were part of the British invasion of North America in the ‘60s.

The son of actor Rex Harrison, he found fame as Stephanie Powers's co-star in the 1968 TV series The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. He also had two singles in the top-40 charts and an Oscar for best song, The Windmills of Your Mind, from the soundtrack of The Thomas Crown Affair.

Looking back, Harrison feels from there he had no- where to go but down and, within a few years, his marriage collapsed and he soured on the Hollywood life.

“f felt insulted every time strangers buttonholed me and started talking to me as if they knew me — all they knew was what they saw on TV.”

FLEES TO CANADA

Harrison, now 53, escaped from Los Angeles with a girlfriend to start another life and family in rural Nova Scotia, where he lived in relative obscurity until the early "80s.

In a small way, the pattern of his life resembled that of Brel, his mugical hero. The passionate, brooding Belgian, once described as “a man who lives at 2,000 miles an hour,” had been at the peak of his career in ©1967 when he announced he would never again set foot on the concert stage.

Success, Brel felt, was making him too “clever and slick.”

Brel plunged into films and ‘when that didn't work out, left his wife and took off with his 22-year-old girlfriend on a round-the-world voyage aboard a 60-foot yawl in 1973.

When they reached the Marquesas Islands in the South Pacific — where painted Paul Gauguin spent his final years

The program funding only quality respite or] one film — The Outside resid lc ty | Chance of ilian Glick, produced by Vancouver's Stephen Foster and Richard Davis. It was shot in Man- itoba in November and is currently in post-production in Vancouver.

Despite a lack of money, the National Film Board's B.C. office is still looking at movie screenplays for funding support.

— they settled down to a simple existence. Bret returned briefly to Paris in 1977 to make a record that sold a million copies the day it was released. Meanwhile, Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris was pop- ularizing his musie among English-speaking audiences. In 1978, Brel died of lung cancer at the age of 48. INTENSE EMOTIONS

Harrison first heard Brel in a smoky bar in Belgium in 1960. He was struck by the intense feelings he aroused.

“I didn’t understand all the words, but it didn’t matter; the emotional content filled the room.”

Years later in Nova Scotia, Harrison says he saw Brel in a dream that took place on a South Pacific island. He checked the details and found they corresponded with what had been written about the singer's last days.

By then, Harrison was tiring of the rural life — “I drank too much, smoked too much pot and worked too hard” — and set out to write a one‘man showed based on Brel's work.

In Adieu Jacques, at the Centaur Theatre until jan. 23, Harrison plays a drifting folksinger who's trying to discover the meaning of Brel’s songs.

Reading from letters to a friend and accompanied only by a guitar, Harrison sings many of the Brel classics.

Harrison, who grew up in Switzerland, recreates Brel's hard-edged, Flemish accent but concedes that, as hard as he tries, it's difficult to communicate the depth of Brel’s passion for life and humorous, defiant attitude toward death.

Harrison, now living ittMaine with is wife and two children, is going to spent part of this year touring the United States with Adieu Jacques, fine-tuning the show with an eye to an eventual run in New York.
