The Letterman link led me to this, which is right up there with Frau K's 'phonebook' comment.


By the way, I once saw Charlton Heston actually read the phone book on a comedy show. It was pretty impressive.

I know, I totally watched that one. I wish it was a series.

@ The Third Man, Thanks for the clarification. I've not read or heard anything substantive regarding O'Toole, either. Still, nothing would surprise me.

Come to think of it, today may have been "Charlton Heston Day" because they ran Midway this afternoon. Earlier they ran In Harm's Way - is he in that? I didn't watch any of their programming today because I was occupied *cough* Project Runway marathon *cough* with other things.

No, he wasn't in In Harm's Way, and you're better off not seeing Midway.

I wonder who both movies have in common. It's surely not John Wayne... Henry Fonda? Could've been one of the "lesser" players I guess.

Anyway - I tried to watch Midway once but I couldn't get through it. And as I've said before, if they want to make a movie about the PTO and have me root for our side, they really shouldn't put Toshiro Mifune in charge of the Japanese navy.

I agree.

And oh BTW someone should tell Sean Connery that this:
