The Mind of Mr. JG Reeder ist eine britische Fernsehserie, die ursprünglichvon 1969 bis 1971 in zwei Serienauf ITV ausgestrahlt wurde. Sie basiert auf einer Reihe von Romanen und Kurzgeschichten von Edgar Wallace mit der Figur von JG Reeder. Er ist etwas über fünfzig, ein langgesichtiger Gentleman mit sandgrauem Haar und einem schmalen Backenbart, der gnädigerweise die Aufmerksamkeit von seinen grossen, herausragenden Ohren ablenkt. Eine hohe und flach gekrönte Melone passt zu einem Gehrock, der eng über seine spärliche Brust geknöpft ist, passt aber nicht zusammen. Seine Stiefel sind kantig, seine Krawatte fertig. Kurz gesagt, er scheint ein eher harmloser, etwas exzentrischer Herr zu sein. Aber es ist fatal, Mr. JG Reeder zu unterschätzen ...

Since he has a birthday coming up, I figured I should crack out some info about Wally Reid. I feel like I repeat this a lot, but that is one of the tragedies of the silent era...but, Wally is virtually forgotten about now. His short career and short life made him disappear into the history of Hollywood to be overshadowed by those who came after him. He was oh so dreamy and I wish there were more films of his available...but...alas... Wallace Reid was born William Wallace Reid on April 15, 1891 in St. Louis Missouri. His parents, Hal and Bertha were involved in show business, traveling the vaudeville circuit. He appeared on stage along with his parents, but eventually he chose school over the theater. He was a star athlete and also excelled in music, learning to play the banjo, piano, drums, and violin. It was his father Hal that actually told Wally that he should pursue the new medium of film. Hal actually played a part in the film industry as well, acting, writing and directing films. Wally made his film debut in 1910. Wally was more interested in directing film rather than starring in it, but those at the studio had a different idea. The studio wanted to capitalize on Wally's good looks and great body (ooh la la) and make him into a screen idol. He had a chance to work alongside with the silent era's elite leading ladies such as Gloria Swanson and Lillian Gish. He had roles in both of D.W. Griffith's epics, Birth of a Nation and Intolerance. Although he was more famous for his roles as a daring race car driver in over six films. In 1919, while making the film Valley of the Giants, Wally injured his back in a train wreck. He was given morphine so that he could continue on with filming. This was the beginning of his downward spiral because he soon became addicted. He kept working at a frantic pace to keep up with his very busy filming schedule. This did not help matters. His health kept getting worse and worse until he finally contracted the flu and went into a coma. He never regained consciousness, and died on January 18, 1923 in Los Angeles. He was only 31. Wally was interred at Forest Lawn in Glendale. He was only married once, to actress Dorothy Davenport. They had one son, Wallace Reid Jr. and an adopted daughter, Betty. After his death, Dorothy travelled the country with the film Human Wreckage and discussed the dangers of drugs. Wally and Dorothy Davenport "The terrible shock of his death shattered the public's image of him, and almost shattered Hollywood." ~ Cecil B. DeMille on his friend Wallace Reid

Jim Talbert lives on the seedy side of Chicago, working at Mr. Wallace's butcher shop. Jim sees Mr. Wallace as an honorable man who not only is his boss but also a friend. After the brutal murder of Mr. Wallace, Jim feels the need to avenge his death. He identifies the responsible gang and with surgical-like precision, plans the downfall of the people responsible. Old friends, as well as new, intertwined with each other, provide unsolicited support to his cause. The climax is explosive and leads to the beginning of \"The Creation,\" Timothy's sequel to \"The Birth.\"

Lady Campanula Tottington is the deuteragonist of The Curse of the Were-Rabbit and a supporting character in its video game adaption. She is Wallace's true love interest. Her family is revealed to have held an annual Giant Vegetable competition at Tottington Hall for over 517 years. At the start of the film, she is courting Victor Quartermaine, though she ultimately ends up dumping him due to his appalling actions over the course of the film, as well as her growing attraction to Wallace.
