Everybody's All-American
Frank DefordDan K Nestor@billjamesonline @FarOutMag Goodman was great as an out of shape old offensive lineman who drank and gambled too much in Everybody’s All American. Shame the director changed Frank DeFord’s book ending to a happy Hollywood one.

Life: Living with the Lord God Almighty.
John C. BurtDan K Nestor@Justme6165 @GenWmTSherman @LisaSamia Tierney, in his mean dotage, resurfaced in Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs. John Huston was a great director, but like John Ford cruel and sadistic, he had Burt Lancaster slap Murphy so hard, and often, on The Unforgiven that Murphy told Lancaster I’d kill you in real life for that.
