Hmm... well that is odd then. I know there were a few people who didn't get their pictures back from Daniel Craig, even though people were still receiving things from him in January, well after A Steady Rain finished. I suppose you could have been one of the unlucky few.
I know in early Novemeber I think it was, playbills for A Steady Rain pretty much stopped dead, as they were selling them for charity on Broadway, so I believe that is why no more were sent out for free. When did you send your playbill request?
As for Catharine Zeta Jones. The first few replies from her were actually pre-prints and then the later successes were genuine, so maybe up until a certain point any letters she received, she didn't bother with. And then when she decided she had the time, she concentrated on new requests. I think you should definitely try her again, as there is still time and there have been a lot back from her recently.
I think you may just have been very unlucky, and maybe your timing was unfortunate.
Well I got something back from the US last week, but the last playbill was in December from Angela Lansbury.
I hope you have better luck in the future.
