Frederic Forrest, an estimable actor, got his first exposure on film, so to speak, in a movie called <i>The Filthy Five,</i>, directed by one of the true maniacs of grindhouse cinema named Andy Milligan.Matt Pattonhttp://mpatton1962.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-28437105704385869242011-01-02T10:43:15.899-08:002011-01-02T10:43:15.899-08:00Mr. Levine is correct that Mr. Hefner is just sett...Mr. Levine is correct that Mr. Hefner is just settling by marrying a woman of some 24 summers, but it <i>should</i> be remembered that every high school within a radius of 20 miles has taken a restraining order out on him, so his dating possibilities are somewhat limited . . .Matt Pattonhttp://mpatton1962.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-78993683691230348032011-01-01T06:18:40.712-08:002011-01-01T06:18:40.712-08:00Terriers was a great show.
