Why, even my father remarked that <b>Douglas Fairbanks</b> reaffirmed, for my pops, the joys of acting. Hell, of being alive.<br /><br />So again, I thank you for this forum, and for the recognition of Uncle Wally's work.<br /><br />PS He was tyrannical on the set, but anything but a tyrant in life. He was a good, solid man. And I loved him.Noah Beeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04101270053384544467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6924668268143757716.post-6124207549815714182009-08-11T12:26:38.521-04:002009-08-11T12:26:38.521-04:00Silent film star Lon Chaney was originally cast in...<i>Silent film star Lon Chaney was originally cast in the role of Butch but fell ill before shooting began and died later that summer. </i><br /><br />Good.Douglas Fairbankshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618933609577319699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6924668268143757716.post-19628389315270167442009-08-11T00:50:33.453-04:002009-08-11T00:50:33.453-04:00I freaking love the way you pull out the perfect l...I freaking love the way you pull out the perfect lines of dialogue to illustrate your points; e.g. re Butch regretting the fork in the road where he took the ant poison path rather than the tried 'n true batting in the jaw path.<br /><br />The spaghetti story is amazing.Who Am Us Anyway?https://www.blogger.com/profile/08260586634760800759noreply@blogger.com
