broke the christa helm story a look at the fascinating life brief career and tragic murder of 1970 s starlet christa helm about me booksteve view my complete profile how i discovered christa helm in 1974 i clipped an ad from my local newspaper for a movie entitled let s go for broke even though i never saw the film i always remembered the name of its star christa helm more than 30 years later i found that clipping and decided to track down that movie only to find out that it seemingly didn t exist and that christa helm had been murdered in 1977 the case was never solved this led to my eventually successful efforts to find let s go for broke and the ongoing efforts of myself and others to piece together the amazing life of christa helm followers for the definitive story to date the
