Probably. Have you checked out that new biography? The guy wants an arm and a leg, but looks like it might be worth it, a history of cinema through the career of one guy who was there for pretty much all of it.

It was his friend, the voice of Rocky the Squirrel, her name escapes me right now, said they did a reading at the Museum of Television and Radio maybe, and when somebody asked about the worn-out piece of clothing he said, in that inimitable voice, "That's my college sweater!", right?

yes, cept it happened in the Bullwinkle studio and she told the story at MT&R when he was long dead.

Redd, they're all worth watching; HH probably shows the most versatility in Fazil, a potboiler "mixed-race" romantic melodrama.
Arthur Lake (the future Dagwood in those Blondie B pictures) is very funny as a femalephobic frat boy in The Cradle Snatchers, which is incomplete in its salvaged form. Also, F Pangborn as a jealous husband.
Fig Leaves is cute, as is George O'Brien's chest. It's on YouTube, p crappy quality.

Sorry for the street team post here, but my buddy Jeff who made "Heavy Metal Parking Lot" is showing his new movie doc "Led-Zeppelin-Played-Here" at Anthology Film Archives Friday at 6 pm and Saturday at 3 pm. It's a doc about whether or not Led Zep actually played the Wheaton, MD Community Center in 1969, and it covers other early rawk gigs from touring bands in those days before the rock industry had fully been established.
