For the week of July 26, there are two more great additions to the drive-in; the first is for actor Brett Halsey! Halsey starred in such B films as Return of the Fly and The Girl in Lovers Lane before heading to Europe in the 1960s to star in spy thrillers.
The latest addition to the cheesecake section of the drive-in comes in the form of the Carol Lynley page! Lynley began her career as a child actress in the 1950s, acting on Broadway and on early television programs before launching a film career in the late 1950s.
There are two new pages at the Drive-In for the week of July 12: The first is for actress Carroll Baker! Baker made a big splash in the 1950s in such films as Baby Doll and Giant. In the late 1960s, she began starring in Italian thrillers such as The Devil Has Seven Faces and Paranoia.
For comedy and film noir fans, there is a new page for actor Robert Cummings! Best known for his 1955-1959 TV series The Bob Cummings Show, aka Love That Bob, Cummings starred in numerous comedy and film noir pictures from the 1930s through the 1960s.
The latest addition to the westerns and horror sections at the drive-in are for actor Lance Fuller! Fuller acted in numerous westerns, such as Kentucky Rifle but is better known for his horror and science fiction features, which include This Island Earth, The Bride and the Beast, and The She-Creature.

And there is a new Margaret Lee page! Lee starred in many Italian spy thrillers, comedies, and horror flicks in the 1960s and 1970s, including Slaughter Hotel and Secret Agent, Super Dragon.
The first new page for 2010 is the new Jacques Bergerac page! Bergerac acted in such musicals as Les Girls and Gigi before moving into B movies, including The Hypnotic Eye and The Unkissed Bride. Later, Bergerac left acting for a successful career in the business world.
To usher out 2009, I've created a new Nat Pendleton page for the comedy and beefcake fans! Pendleton is probably best known for his portrayal of strongman Eugen Sandow in The Great Ziegfeld but acted in several movie series in the 1930s and 1940s. He got his start as a wrestler before turning to acting in the 1920s.
Be sure to check out the various Now Showing sections, where you will find full-length B movies playing every day. Most major Drive-In sections have a film playing, and I'm placing Now Showing features in some of the actor pages as well. It's an especially great way to be entertained if you're bored at work!
significant updates for existing pages
Frequent visitors to the drive-in have probably noticed the new look and layout. Every page at Brian's Drive-in Theater gets a needed facelift, with improved functionality, more information, and more features. Some pages received extreme updates (such as Glenn Morris and Samson Burke), with more photos and biographical information. Most actor pages now feature a movie that you can watch while you're on the page!
Still more new pages are under development at the Drive-In! Check the Coming Soon page for an extensive listing of upcoming pages at the Drive-In. Or, if there's an actor or actress you think would make a good addition to this site, e-mail Brian.
