Youth In Excellence Awards Deemed A Huge Success

Youth In Excellence Awards Deemed A Huge Success

Nashville, TN (July 26, 2013) The first ever Youth In Excellence Awards, hosted by Bev McCann of Godsey and Associates was a huge success when held in Nashville, TN last Monday evening, July 15th. With a capacity crowd and an array of talent, the awards were given for the accomplishments of young people in the film and music arenas.
Founder of the awards, film maker Beth Roose stated “I noticed that the youth in films and music are not receiving much attention for all the hard work and talent that they have. I felt it was time to make a change and give the youth of the industry just a little recognition.”
Eden Wood was a big winner for the evening with Rhema Marvanne and Gavin Morales also taking home an armful of Awards.
Beth Roose continued “One of the most touching awards of the night was to the Military. We had Lt. Col Richard Mendez from the USAF there. We presented him an award and sang God Bless America. After the song, two of the girls Ginny Posey and Eden Wood wrote notes about how they loved this country and read it to the Lt. Col and then gave him the notes. He was clearly moved. Another moving moment was when Lulu Roman, of Hee Haw fame, accepted her Lifetime Achievement Award. Lulu was surprised when her friends from Southern Gospel, Zane and Donna King appeared to present her award to her.”

A Grand Reunion Found In Remake Of “Tomboy and the Champ”

Katy, TX (June 17, 2013) Who says that a reunion has to take place at a park pavilion with a picnic lunch? This is a strange reunion of sorts as it's not all the family getting together to reminisce old stories, although I'm sure some really great stories will be shared. This is a reunion 52 years in the making. This is a reunion of then child star Jerry Naill and the Classic movie he played in, “Tomboy And The Champ”.

Jerry Naill found his true calling early in his life. He discovered music as a child and a star was born. He was cast in the 1961 classic movie "Tomboy And The Champ". Not only did Jerry have a singing part in the film, but he also had the opportunity to record six songs for the movie's soundtrack.
The original cast starred Ben Johnson, Rex Allen, and Candy Moore.

Beth Roose Films has taken on the task to remake this wonderful Christian Family Film. In the remake Eden Wood steps up to the plate as the Star, Tommy Jo Lane. Hollywood Western Star Ed Faulkner steps into the shoes of Ben Johnson and Nashville's Southern Gospel favorite Ian Owens steps in Jess Kirkpatrick's role as Parson Dan. You will love the ever funny Hee Haw and Country/Gospel Star LuLu Roman in the role of Grandma.

Beth Roose said “I can't resist bringing Jerry into the role of Mr. Stockton in the remake. While Katy native, Jerry may not be singing in the remake, his presence will be a wonderful addition to the cast.”

As in the original, the remake will showcase the county Future Farmers of America as well as the warmth of family, friends and community.

"Tomboy and the Champ" is a much needed film in today's negative, violent, and sexual oriented
films released in the market today. Principle photography will start July 23rd in Katy, Texas.

Remake Of Classic Movie To Be Made in Katy, Texas

Katy, TX (April 19, 2013) Beth Roose Films is in the pre-production planning phase on the remake of the classic family film, “Tomboy and the Champ”.

Beth Roose, a Katy, TX resident who is CEO of Beth Roose Films, the company that will film the movie on location in Katy. The film will star Ben Johnson, Candy Moore and Jesse White. The original movie was released in 1961 and was also filmed in Katy.

“I just couldn’t resist the fun of doing a remake of this classic family film,” stated Roose, who will work with veteran actor Edward Faulkner to direct the made-for-TV movie.

Faulkner may be remembered from his acting roles in various John Wayne and Elvis Presley movies. Faulkner is also taking on the role of Uncle Jim in the “Tomboy and the Champ” remake.

New young film actress Eden Wood has been chosen for the lead role of Tommie Jo in the remake, which in addition to Faulkner, also features Don Collier of "High Chapparal" fame, as a reporter, Gospel singer Ian Owens as a minister and Lee Merriweather, an actress known for her many television roles as well as portraying Catwoman in the “Batman” series, in the role of Aunt Sara.

Safe for the family as “heartwarming family entertainment,” the remake focuses on life on a small East Texas ranch and the touching story of Tommie Jo’s devotion to her pet Angus steer.

According to Roose, filming is scheduled to begin at the end of August, and plans are to use Katy residents to fill minor roles as well as serve as film extras.''We also plan to use the local FFA chapter as they did in the original film, and I look forward to re-creating many of the original scenes.... especially the parade, which included the Katy High School band, cheerleaders and football team."

Roose said she and her crew will be working closely with the Mayor's Office to secure permits, as well as local community participation.

Roose said she was inspired to create positive, family-friendly films to try and counter some of the negative cartoons that today's kids are subjected.

"It is not unusual to hear and watch negative, disrespectful and rude characters and story lines," she said. "I strongly believe that families are searching for positive story lines [in today's cartoons and films]. That's why I branched out to do the remake of a family-friendly classic film."

In addition to "Tomboy and the Champ," Beth Roose Films plans to make another family movie, “Whirlwind,” based on the book by Alison Hart.

Scott Godsey and Associates are producing both the “Tomboy and the Champ” and “Whirlwind.”

In addition to the movies Roose and company are currently working on two music videos. One is titled “Christmas Needs Love to be Christmas” and features both Ian Owens and Eden Woods. The second is titled “Soul’d Out: Never Give Up.” Both are being produced by Scott Godsey and Associates.
