BTW, Anthony Quinn's ticket to stardom was playing Italian characters. However, he was secretly Latino, as were other actors like Michael Sheen (Estevez).
-
That would be the next name. Just to make this official, Goerge, that means this is?

I knew you'd know once I posted Alejandro's nickname was Sandy, but I wasn't sure if you'd know before. Or if you'd answer first.

BTW, this actor has been onscreen at some point in the "Framed" thread.

Ok, next film.

Sorry. Between both life and multiple threads, it can be hard to keep up, :)

"I'm all out of hope. One more bad break Could bring a fall. When I'm far from home Don't call me on the phone To tell me you're alone. It's easy to deceive. It's easy to tease, But hard to get release." "I spend so much time Believing all the lies To keep the dream alive. Now it makes me sad, It makes me mad at truth For loving what was you."

This is not an obscure song, so with more lyrics, you may get it.

It IS "A Knight's Tale." The Canterbury Tales inspired part of the movie. "The Knight's Tale" obviously is part, and we met Chaucer, and the Pardoner during the story. The woman armorer was The Wife of Bath. Chaucer both writes, and acts as "Ulrich's" herald- as seen in the quote above.

The record set was "most cars destroyed while filming a movie." The end of the movie has a memorable scene at Daley Center.

Chaka Khan was a soloist in the chorus at the church. Joe Walsh was at the very end, the first convict to jump up and dance on a table. Steven Spielberg was at the end- he was the Cook County Assessor. Paul Reubens was a waiter at Chez Paul where Mr Fabulous worked (he recommended the Dom Perignon '72 for 100 bucks.) Frank Oz was at the very beginning- he handed over Jake's belongings when he was discharged. Steven Williams was one of the Highway Patrol ("Why not? They ain't going no place."- SW at the Palace Ballroom.) Steve Lawrence was Maury Sline, who got them the gig at the Palace. Mr T was supposedly on the street somewhere- I still haven't seen him.

It's "The Blues Brothers."
-
I didn't mean by name. What does "Ulrich" do for a living?
-
Some actors who appeared in this movie: Mr T Chaka Khan Joe Walsh Steven Spielberg Paul Reubens (aka Peewee Herman) Frank Oz Steven Williams Steve Lawrence Shirley Levine AFAIK, this is the only movie that includes a movie credit to an actor who was completely cut from the movie- Shirley Levine as "woman on the cutting room floor" This movie set a record that was broken in 2009 by "GI Joe-the Rise of Cobra." In an unrelated note, this movie was once recommended as having the best source for views of Daley Center.

Not inaccurate. Who is it about?
-
Robert Preston Music Man Ron Howard (Yes, we're doing MOVIE links, so his TV appearances don't count, but he did at least 1 other movie that should be memorable for his appearance.....)

YES! When the script called for "seig heil" or something, they changed the phrase in German so it was the name of an herb that was pronounced almost the same way. The salute with the hand forward and up was coupled with "The grass grows this high!" Colonel Klink has never had a prisoner escape, He always has exactly the same number of prisoners, and they seem to be the same prisoners as near as anyone can tell.

This TVland-era syndicated show has aired in different countries. When it aired (airs???) in Germany, the dubbing track has some added words. To be specific, all the time, the characters apparently say "The grass grows this high!" A common saying at the time of the story was commonly ALTERED- in Germany- and in English would have meant "medicinal herb", which had absolutely no relevance to what the characters actually said. (Why?) Of the main characters of the show, one had previously been a bookkeeper and the other the president of a toy company before the show and their current "occupations." 2 characters once traveled to London, and several traveled to Paris. The fake snow was sometimes white salt, but later it was all just white paint. Nicknames for the "jolly jokers" included "Goldilocks", "Papa Bear", and "Little Red Riding Hood", apparently all assigned arbitrarily because there seemed to be no pattern to it. "What is this man doing here????" Actors who appeared during the series' run included Gavin Mac Leod, William Christopher, Alice Ghostley, Hans Conried, Joe Tata, and Harvey Keitel. Really. This show actually released a music album, complete with the theme song AND ITS LYRICS. (It had lyrics???) They had a set of trading cards, and a short-lived comic book series. Plans to make a movie of the series, so far, have not resulted in a theatrical film or solid plans to film one. One cast member was an African-American with an important role, who, among other things, came up with an ingenious use for a common coffeepot. One episode said the location was 60 miles/97 km) from the North Sea. The supposed "head bad guy" of the show has a spotless record, kept so by the good guys. (They cover their tracks VERY thoroughly.) Richard Dawson was part of the principal cast. The weather when filming was typical for Southern California (where they filmed), but the show had snow on the ground, all the time. There was a lawsuit brought by the makers of a movie that shared a number of elements with the series. The jury found they were too similar, but a federal judge overruled them and said there was a "striking difference in the dramatic mood of the two works."

Next song. "I'm all out of hope. One more bad break Could bring a fall. When I'm far from home Don't call me on the phone To tell me you're alone. It's easy to deceive. It's easy to tease, But hard to get release."

Can you at least figure out what KIND of story this is about?

Just thought I'd share this, for those who haven't read it before. 1 Corinthians 7 King James Version (KJV) 7 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. ===================== In CFS, vpw said that "touch" in that verse meant, literally, to "help himself." So, documented in CFS, he made it sound like twi was against hanky-panky. When vpw went to Haight-Ashbury to hijack the hippies, he spent some time with some of them, including J1m D00p. J1m said he was surprised how much vpw grilled him about specifics about ORGIES. He did this for a while, and J1m was uncomfortable- and said he was thankful he was delivered from all that. vpw told him "ALL THAT IS AVAILABLE," meaning that God Almighty was fine with ORGIES. His rationale? As he told J1m D00p, "if God had meant it meant man was supposed to keep his hands off, "It would have said 'best' and not 'good.' " At the time, J1m thought he must have misunderstood vpw somehow, because it sounded like vpw had said that he believed God Almighty was fine with ORGIES. So, off the record, vpw said things like orgies were OK with God Almighty, and on the record, vpw said things like orgies were NOT fine with God Almighty.
