Lock thread!

tough call, but I gotta go with Jonathan. Always great no matter what he was in, be it the Twilight Zone or Mork and Mindy.

But shelly in Night on the Hunter, underwater in the car! Classic.

xpost I saw an ad last night, I think they're doing a made-for-tv remake of poseidon adventure...

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 22:43 (twenty years ago)

"Winters was one of Robert De Niro's first fans. She was introduced to him by her goddaughter, actress Sally Kirkland, and she cast De Niro in one of his first noteworthy roles, as her psychopathic, drug-addled son in 'Bloody Mama.' She is 23 years older than De Niro, but some accounts suggest she may have slept with him..."

YEAH! Hot.

okay, I'm changing my vote to Shelley.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 22:56 (twenty years ago)

I like Jonathan in "The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming" and "Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World," but I think most of his latest fare has been of the Dorf on Golf straight-to-video variety.

oh his ouevre is TV cameos and children's shows, no doubt. I don't think he's had any movie roles in years and years. But I just love how versatile he is with physical comedy, without getting all obnoxious a la Jim Carrey or Jerry Lewis. way more subtle.

jonathan:

"Fish Police" (1992) TV Series (voice) .... Mayor Cod

― nein Socken (nein Socken), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 23:02 (twenty years ago)

I'm having a recovered memory of him doing both Tweedledum & Tweedledee for some made-for-TV Alice... is this possible? I can see it in my head.

― andy --, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 23:08 (twenty years ago)

its listed in his IMDB credits - I remember that too.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 23:09 (twenty years ago)

i can see him in my head too... i don't know what it's from though. he looks like a big fat old happy stoned turtle.

i wish he was my grandpa.

― nein Socken (nein Socken), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 23:11 (twenty years ago)

that made-for-TV Alice movie was pretty good actually - lots of old showbiz folks (Steve Lawrence and Edie Gorme, Winters, Sammy Davis Jr. as the Caterpillar, etc.)

"There's a little Dorf in all of us..." sez the box.

(I know this isn't winters; he wouldnt' go that low.)

Conway isn't fit to lick Winters' golf cleats.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 23:15 (twenty years ago)

Shelley Winters was a roommate of Marilyn Monroe in the late 40s.

Picture some kind of mashup of Lolita and Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World in which Humbert is distracted from his quest and starts looking for the Big W instead.

Just of think of the mugging that goes on when Peter Sellers crosses paths with Dick Shawn.
