  1. I'm flipping all the cards.

    James Woods starred as defense-attorney-turned-prosecutor Sebastian Stark in "Shark."  Panabaker played his daughter.

    I enjoyed it, so naturally it didn't last long.  :rolleyes:

  2. 9 hours ago, Human without the bean said:

    That's Jack Nicholson adlibbing in the Stephen King novel made for movie "The Shining".

    Correct.  (Parodying, of course, the opening of the Tonight Show in the Carson years.)

  3. No.

    Characters in this movie include Leo Durocher, Eddie Stanky, Joe Garagiola, Branch Rickey, Pee Wee Reese, and Red Barber.

    Robert Redford and Jack Nicholson were considered for the Rickey role.

    The film does not explore the main character's career with the Montreal Royals, but he was hugely popular. After leading the team to the league championship, it was noted: ..."probably the only day in history that a black man ran from a white mob that had love, not lynching, on its mind."

    The star is perhaps better known for a role in the MCU.

    The star did many of his own stunts, because he believed that his stunt double's performance was not true to the main character's actions (the actual person portrayed in the movie).
