bingolong,
what's really weird is I've been wondering about how Heston was doing since The Ten Commandments aired this month.
Murph,
other than The Ten Commandments his civil rights protest participation really stands out for me. same with Marlon Brando. takes a lot to take a stand like that at that time when either, along with Frank Sinatra could have just sat by and did nothing like many did.
but u know u are powerful when u show up to a town and the prosecutor gets nervous. if you have seen Bowling for Columbine
then you'll know. priceless: Then Moses himself shows up

tamra,
my favorite movie he was in was "The Mountain Men"...but that's mostly because Brian Keith was in it too.
if they have to pry my "gun" out of my cold dead fingers that means I died before it was my turn in that death by pussy line Richard was talking about ;p
