The Astounding B-Monster website has a fairly recent
interview with
Contino at http://www.bmonster.com/profile15.html,
wherein he talks
about "Daddy-O," and his friendship with Ellroy. There's also
a
separate focus on "Daddy-O" itself at
http://www.bmonster.com/cult15.html
BTW, "The Astounding B-Monster" is one of the most
consistently
informative and entertaining webzines out there. Their issue
no. 6
focused on film noir, and included reviews of some lesser
known noirs
like the exciting "Raw Deal," and my personal favorite "The
Big Combo."
