It's hard to watch him in this state and then we remembered that he is lucky to still be alive. A stroke is a hell of a medical event - glad he wrote the book.

Particularly Dalton Trumbo. He said Allen West has the same ideology as McCarthy and Republicans were adopting that ideology.

A 'real' actor. A Letter To Three Wives is one of his best.
