He played a cruel sergeant, and won acclaim for the role. I should have mentioned him in the post.<br /><br />YOUR post is informative, and a lot of fun. I did try to say "directed in the direction of the director." That's a mouthful!<br /><br />Have a great Easter Sunday!!<br /><a href="http://annbestblog.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow"><i>Ann Best, Author of In the Mirror & Other Memoirs</i></a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034142332858737641.post-11988347629712404842012-04-07T17:35:56.528-04:002012-04-07T17:35:56.528-04:00I love that last picture!
