Ever since I can remember as a small child, all I ever wanted to do was be like those entertainers on the silver screen. I wanted to be able to bring the joy that I felt as a kid to people that same way. That's why I went into Summerstock and started to act in theater and all to gain that, that I needed, that experience. When I got the opportunity to do movies, it was the greatest thing in my life. To me there was no big part or small part every part that I played I tried to give everything that I had to every role Now, there have been rumors that I was a drunk or maybe a drug addict. And with this film that we're doing, I want to dispel all rumors at this time. I never drank any alcohol in my life and I never did any drugs. What happened to me is my doctors found a large tumor in the middle of my brain. It was so deep down that they couldn't operate and there was no real way to treat it. So many of the reports that said I was drunk on set or whatever was wrong. But I don't deny the fact that I probably was maybe a little hard to deal with at times, but it was not something that I meant to do. for any of the actors or directors or producers that I may have hurt with my words or my actions. I sincerely apologize. and for all productions that halted because of this thing. All I can say is that I am sorry. My friend Eve Davis wanted to do this film and I have obliged to do it but one thing I want to make perfectly clear in this is I do not want any pity. That is why I disappeared and I haven't said anything. I don't want anybody's pity. I just want you to remember what I put on screen. Requiem for an entertainer Gain many awards But that is not why Eve did this She did this for the redemption Of a man's reputation At the end of the awards year The Classic Film Council's Board of Directors Decided that Preston deserved A Lifetime Achievement Award Preston even though Extremely weakened by his condition insisted on being there to receive the award.
