Why Jim, he's one of them fancy English actor fellows. They been showing his picture shows on the left coast for some time, they might show one in Georgia in a couple years.
Why, if I remember correctly, he's the feller who kissed Christopher Reeves in the movie Death Trap. He's sho got a perty car though.

Howdy Jim,
He is an actor. Wears glasses so he looks like a geek. One movie of his that I like is "Blame it on Rio".

I remember somebody from Hollywood called him
"Snake Eyes".He said once,I can't remember the movie,Sir,if this is a promotion,I need more money.I used that phrase to my boss,and I got a raise.

He also was in that movie last year that was nominated for several Academy Awards, "Cider House Rules".
He was the head of the orphanage. He was a doctor and also performed abortions. Good movie.

The Man Who Would Be King.
A great movie. One of my all time favorites. Michael Caine and Sean Connery.

Don't forget:
"Dirty Rotten Scoundrels". A classic...right up there with Strange Brew!
