Burt Metcalfe.


I did consider him. I suppose he did have two supporting film roles. I'll put him in possibilities.

Mace Neufeld might get named, he was a producer, I believe.


Completely overlooked him. I see he produced Patriot Games, The Punisher, The Aviator, Beverly Hills Cop II etc. Producers are harder to predict so will pop him in possibilities.

Jacques Perrin and Joan Copeland will definitely be in it.


I was on the fence about Perrin but you've swayed me, will move him to dead certs.

Copeland I will keep in possibilities – yes she had a couple of supporting roles in her heyday and did a voice in an animated Disney film, but Samuel E. Wright (voice of Sebastian in the Little Mermaid) was cruelly snubbed last year. Brother Bear was nowhere near as big as The Little Mermaid. Copeland was famous for her television roles more than anything.

Not main star, but he was in movies like "Back to the Beach" "Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star" & "Kentucky Fried Movie".

Back to the Beach: "Judge #1"
Dickie Roberts: chorus singer
Kentucky Fried Movie: courtroom extra

I would be shocked if he was included.

Looking through the possibilities list, I would be surprised if Alan Ladd, Jr, Bob Saget, and Dennis Waterman weren't included. 

 

Ladd in particular, he is the son of a famous actor, who then went on to have a hand in some important movies of the time, for example Star Wars

Mina Kolb (IMDb) looking reasonably good for a woman who will be 97 next year.

Anyone who watched Curb Your Enthusiasm will know her as Jeff's mom.

I can’t see Dennis Waterman - he is pretty much unknown in the USA.

Almost cert

Other possibilities

Latest photos of Johnny Depp. Not exactly the picture of health if you want my opinion. Curious to see he hasn’t his own thread (or at least I couldn’t find it)

 @Octopus of Odstock, thanks. I've added both Billy Watson and Paul Herman to dead certs.

 @CaptainChorizo, thanks. Added Chor Yuen to possibilities, and Manuel Ojeda to dead certs. I can't however see Axel Jodorowsky being included. Fairly big film, but not Hollywood, and his only notable role.

I've also added Robbie Coltrane to dead certs, and Ted White to possibilities. Just can't see them including Jan Rabson, even if he was one of the lead dubbing voices in Akira.

Edit: I've also added Max Julien and June Preston to dead certs. James Olson, Gregory Itzin, Roger E. Mosley and Gene LeBell have been added to possibilities.

Peter Siragusa was also the voice of Bruton from Disney animated film Dinosaur (2000), strangely I thought Bruton was voiced by a famous actor.

Sacheen Littlefeather dead at 75.

Just saw a statement implying she was not actually Apache/Native American - according to her family. Her father was of Mexican Heritage and he was born in Oxnard, California.

If that’s true then that’s hilarious. Basically an Elizabeth Warren type.

 

I wonder how common it is in the States for ppl to lie about or at least exaggerate Native American ancestry. Do they think it gives them some kind of superiority over their peers if they claim to be descended from the early peoples of the Americas? Personally I find it a bizarre thing to lie about.

 

Edit: Deadline report. The story comes from her two sisters who have come forward to try and clear their father’s name. Littlefeather claimed he was an abusive alcoholic and that she grew up in poverty, apparently none of which was true. They have also said the family is of Mexican and white heritage only.
 

One thing I don’t understand though… why didn’t her family come forward before now? They must have been benefiting from it in some kind of way surely? Otherwise why would you keep quiet? 
 

With this news in mind, I’m going to scrub her from the TCM Remembers predictions. Surely they won’t feature her now.

@Ulitzer95 Native Americans qualify for a free University education in the USA - full scholarships paid by «Indian Money» placed in funds for them. They often get jobs because of the quota system many States still use. If you are in a tribe that chose to allow gambling on their lands and built casinos - then you receive money from it every month! Knew a lady who got 1000s of dollars every month - needless to say she did not have to work. Before the 1960s, sometimes mixed-race people with African heritage would say they had a Cherokee grandparent - that way they would avoid the stigma of being Black. There are also urban myths that Native American men are good in bed - but I digress…..
