  8. Edward Arnold in Lillian Russell (1940),You Can't Take it With You (1939), Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) Mr, Arnold had an amazing career, excelling in many key roles in memorable films. He certainly deserves consideration for "greatest character actor of all time", if that could somehow be quantified. next: Lee Chan Mr. Wing Master Po (TV series)
  9. Gloria Talbott in an interview with Tom Weaver, said that she had "no rapport" with Craig, who was an "an enigma...who didn't want have much to do with anybody." She liked Chaney Jr. ("a dear sweet man") and said Lon's mom brought his lunch to the set, and an air mattress for him to nap on. This air mattress must have been huge! I wonder if it might actually have been a military surplus inflatable pontoon or landing craft? Craig, Drake, and Chaney apparently were all drunk when the scene in the little plane's cockpit was shot and poor Gloria got intoxicated from the fumes those three boys exhaled. There's more here... https://books.google.com/books?id=kMYf7vlGQn0C&pg=PA335&lpg=PA335&dq=james+craig+alcohol+cyclops&source=bl&ots=op0CmZJPCO&sig=ACfU3U3kJHTZ3hrcCwSH9lJPAxCR46Gm5Q&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjiqvaerfT1AhXxYt8KHXcPAtg4ChDoAXoECA8QAw#v=onepage&q=james craig alcohol cyclops&f=false
  10. Benson Fong owned Ah Fong's. This menu is from 1974. next: used a nickname as his/her professional name
  11. Cineman, classic film character actors/actresses are to me like hot soup on a cold day. It is always comforting and nourishing for me to see them. I love Felix Bressart and his first films that come to mind are The Shop Around The Corner and To Be or Not To Be. I recall a day a few months back when TCM showed Isle of the Dead, Ghost Ship, and Picture of Dorian Gray I happened to be home for this Skelton Knaggs festival, once I saw his face I was down to watch all three films, what a great day. my other favorites...to name just a few, Elisha Cook Jr., Una O'Connor, Lionel Atwill, Margaret Wycherly, George Tobias, Janet Shaw,

  14. The Brasher Doubloon (1947) next: lots of snappy dialogue
  15. The talkative Gianni Russo tricks James Caan and sends him to his death in The Godfather (1972). Al Pacino sends Russo to his demise, settling the score. next: played tough guys, very believably
