By Lee Pfeiffer

The Warner Archive has released That Hagen Girl as a burn-to-order DVD title. The 1947 soap opera stars Shirley Temple as Mary Hagen, a high school girl who is socially ostracized when it is suspected she was born illegitimately. The presumed father is Tom Bates (Ronald Reagan), who twenty years earlier had been romancing the high school prom queen. She suddenly vanished without explanation only to return with her parents and kept in isolation. The rumor mill indicated that she had given birth to a daughter, who was then given to a local childless couple to raise. Tom makes attempts to see his girlfriend but is rebuffed by her strict parents. Eventually Tom moves to another town but returns many years later when he inherits a house in his hometown. Now a successful lawyer, the handsome Tom turns heads even as the rumors resume over his presumed status as  Mary's real father. »

Skyfall Naomie Harris interview: "I can finally say I'm Miss Moneypenny"

19 February 2013 9:00 AM, PST | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

Naomie Harris has spoken to Digital Spy about becoming the new Miss Moneypenny in Skyfall.

The British actress, whose big screen credits include 28 Days Later and Pirates of the Caribbean, leapt into the James Bond franchise as MI6 field agent Eve, a role shrouded in secrecy by the film's production team.

After multiple auditions, Harris was told by director Sam Mendes and producer Barbara Broccoli that Skyfall would reintroduce several key characters from the series' past, and she would step into a role previously played by Lois Maxwell, Caroline Bliss and Samantha Bond.

"I had to keep everything a secret for ages," Harris told Digital Spy during the inaugural East Coast Trains journey from London to Edinburgh.

"Even when I'd just got given the role I was told that I couldn't tell anyone, so it's nice now to be free of all [the secrecy] and just say, 'Yes, I am Miss Moneypenny! »
