Also ya gotta love the movie The Magnificent Seven
@@alanstevenson-graham6268 yes! Chris Adams(Yul's role) was my favorite of all his roles. It's so hrad to pick just one though,isnt it.
Just caught your channel about a month ago and I've been binge watching it since. I don't know if someone has replied to you yet but Yul played Rameses II on "The 10 Commandments" or Rameses the Great. Seti was his father and Rameses I was his grandfather.
How can you not mention TARAS BULBA ?
Piss off
I carried Mr. Brynner twice on flights I was working, he was traveling with his last wife. He could not have been more gracious, self deprecating and just wonderful. He wanted my name first of all and used it throughout the flights. Warned us with his distinctive but diminished voice about smoking. He carried his on Fresca soda's and had me put them on ice for him. Both occasions he was gentle, amusing and Wonderful which I already said, but I mean it. One of my greatest moments flying.
Anthony Fitts what is the cigarette brand he used to smoke?
He was hot. Would have welcomed him into the mile high club.
He walked a mile for his Camel, no filter, lethal to his wellness, I guess.
An unusually attractive and charismatic man, especially in the Rameses role (and outfits). What a voice; what a gaze; what presence; what an actor. Unforgettable.
You are so right, as I always envied how great his legs looked as Ramses. No guy ever looked better in a skirt!
Saw him in person back in the early 80's, incredible
@@marylamb7707 Wow! Lucky you.
@@doro8856
Yes. I consider it right up there as when I...
That's about it, lol
Well, we sat 2 rows down from Paul Newman at a race once. That was cool. But seeing Brenner perform in person!!
My Aunt and mother were huge fans. We took them with us. Now THAT was the best. Watching THEM watch him.
@@marylamb7707 I'm glad you have such good memories of these events. Good for you. May you continue to have many more.
His heart felt interview about not smoking, knowing he was dying at the time convinced me to stop smoking. Thank you Yul. Always enjoyed his acting skill.
I'm gonna finish this last pack and watch it. Thanks
He was fabulous; incredibly handsome, spoke impeccable French and other languages, amazingly talented and skilled.
I have had a crush on Yul Brynner since I first saw him in the film version of the King and I. I wept buckets when he died in the film. I have loved the look of a bald head ever since I saw his. He was fantastically sexy and incredibly handsome. I was just a mere child when he was at the height of his fame. Has any other mongolian/russian/hungarian every become such a superstar in history? I can't think of one person who has. He was incredible and it is such a shame he died the way he did. Such a sad ending to a truly amazing actor. They just don't make them like that any more. Rest in Peace Yul Brynner, you were incredible. What a loss.
I agree, Miss Carly. When it was broadcast on t.v. that Yul had passed, my ex-husband came into our bedroom, knelt beside the bed and, very gently told me. I cried off and on for days. My thoughts are with you and all of Mr. Brynner's fans.
Cigarettes...cancer.
@@lindseycarribean5113 he knew the smokes caused it and spent his last days doing public tv announcements warning of the dangers of smoking.
Leonard Nimoy, Russian. The Gabor sisters, Hungarian.
Tony Curtis Hungarian, Peter Falk Russian, Hungarian and Polish, William Shatner Russian/Hungarian born in Canada, Billy Crystal Russia/Austria,
I never smoked after being so impressed by his PSA. I am forever grateful to a man I never met!
I always had a ton of respect for the video he made about smoking when he was dying.
A close relative of my ex wife was his personal assistant for many years. He was very generous and very nice she said.
That nice to hear.
One of the most electrifying and mesmerizing actors ever. No films made today are worthy of his brilliance.
chill out dude
I agree!
@@dubiousdistinction6500 Why?? It's true.
@@xScooterAZx no its not
@@dubiousdistinction6500 How do you know this?
And there hasn't been an equal to Yul Brunner since.... a Great actor,and humanitarian.R.I.P.
I saw YB on Broadway in the King And I. He was commanding in a great way. I was right down in front for the show. He was exactly as you described him in this wonderful look back at a Hollywood legend. Thanks.
HG ? Great bio on YB
I saw him in the King and l on the London stage I was mesmerised completely all the Audience where spell bound, very handsome and such a wonderful deep sexy voice.
Was he really bisexual??
@@sheilagravely5621 Never heard that one.
Truly talented actor, very handsome and fascinating. Loved him in the Ten Commandments
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
As a kid every Easter we’d watch 10 Commandments. YB was the first man I ever seen wear a skirt and fitted top and look so good. He played the hell out of Ramsey’s . ♥️❤️🔥
Every Easter!!! Even now!!
I was little when Yul played Ramses,and I got my first crush.Then,he went on to absolutely cement that when I saw The King and I. THEN,..I saw Kings of the Sun,and I was even more lost.I was 9 then. In moccasins,fringed buckskin pants,and nothing else.He was just beautiful. Strutting as he always did.
Absolutely magnificent!
He was one of the very few men who could have tossed his shoes under my bed any old day.
He was a terrific actor, too.
His PSA was dramatic and highly impactful. It should still be aired.
It really should, shouldn't it?
I agree, except the younger generation will have no idea who he is!! ☹
It got me to quit.
Saw him in his last run of The King and I when he was terminal . Still great
He shaved his head for the role of The King, and then kept it that way full time. He was 23 the first time he played The King. When he reprised the role for stage in the 70's, he was in his 50's. He said now he could now identify with the King better and give his performances more depth. I saw him live at the Pantages in Hollywood in the 70's. I will never, ever forget it.
I first came a cross Yul Brynner as a child on television in Anna And The King from 1972 , a short lived series that really deserved a much longer run. Remember this show fondly...
Magnificent seven too
I've been a fan of his since I was 16. That's over 60 years!
Let me get that chair for you....
My grandfather came from the Czech Republic in what was then Bohemia and was named Julius. He went by Yula as a nickname especially with his Czech family and friends. He also went by Jules, Julian, Julie. When he finally retired he had to go back to the old country to get his baptismal record to prove who he was. He didn’t have a birth certificate which I guess was not unusual? My grandfather was an actor in Cleveland, Ohio and he was a bit of a con man/salesman for most of his life. His family came to the States in the early turn of the century and things were very different back then. You could invent yourself and bullshit yourself through a lot of things. It was a Bohemian gypsy life in a way. I wonder if he found Yule Brenner to be an “influencer”.
Great channel. Love your work. Well researched. 🤍✌🏽🕊
people continue to invent themselves and bullshit their way through. Because people do this.. just willy nilly.. is your evidence to know that we live in an illusion. It's not reality.
@@keetahbrough yet, we can be identified through paper trails.
Just an amazing actor strong, versatile and accomplished. Certainly one of the all time greats, pretty much loved all his movies. Thanks so much for this excellent video really enjoyed learning more about Yul. Thanks Brenton 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks so much Brenton! 🙂
Back then there was a lots of great stars and actors.
Don't care where he came from, he was absolutely handsome beautiful sad eyes!! 💙🥰👍
He was well schooled by his upbringing to become the actor he was. Handsome, talented, well educated and charismatic. I wish I could watch all his movies again.
Yul's mother took his elder sister, Vera (January 17, 1916 - December 13, 1967), and him to Harbin, China, where they attended a school run by the YMCA.
He was a gracious man and was courteously kind to those who were courteously kind to him. He was a remarkable artist in whichever field he chose. And it was he who taught Steve McQueen how to act on film (go for fewer lines and more expression).
Rivalry between these 2. Two very ambitious people.
He was who he wanted to be,,his lies didn't make any difference in who really was,,,a wonderfully talented man who led an extraordinary life,,,
He was always one of my favorite actors. He was a kind & caring person. I just loved him. He was such an unusual & intelligent person. So talented ❣️
My favorite was charles bronson
Yul is one of those People Of Unknown Origin - like Anthony Quinn (Mexican) who can play, very well, just about any nationality.
Lou Diamond Philips as well.
Anthony Quinn was part Native American and some European per his autobiography if I'm not mistaken, read it a few months ago.
Amazing actor, and impressive personality.
Excellent info on this mysterious actor!⭐️
I was born in Vladivostok, their family home still stands till this day. And it’s so beautiful that as a child I thought it was a museum. 😊
Please enlighten me on the scene in The Journey where he eats the glass! Is that a Russian thing?
I loooved him. His presence......his gait.....his self-assurance A MAN'S MAN. When asked who would be in your wish list of.......Yul Brynner, Gregory Peck, Sean Connery and others i can quite recall now.....But Yul Brynner stole my heart during my childhood....in the 10 Commandments......and the subsequent films he made. I loooved him. What a personality!
Brynner made many great memorable movies with characters he played.
He seems like a very nice person who thought of others I was very impressed how caring he was,,,nice man..
What a great video ... as always. I've ALWAYS thought that Yul Brynner was, and still is, THE SEXIEST man. It's been my great fortune to see him twice, on stage, in "The King And I." The second time I saw him, my seat was 6th row center. And there was a 20 minute standing ovation at the end. I have an autographed photo of him, as well. Thank you! Thank you!! Thank you for this episode of AOV!!!!!!!!!
Thank for this amazing biography of the life of YUl Brynner! As a child, he was one of my faves….I’ll always remember his role as Taras Bulba…..he had such a beautiful deep voice…..& he was gorgeous…..and he shocked me in “westworld”. …..he was eerily scary! What a heartthrob! There will never be another!
I click for Yul Bryner! Loved this! Subscribed.
His made up life couldn't have been more varied and exotic than his actual life!
He's the definition of "magnetism", he attracts *everyone* . As a child I was mesmerized by him! The King and I and Ten Commandments were TV events because of him. As a teen I loved The Gunslinger, pure Bryner genius. Liked your homage to his silent screen actor skills there. As a young adult I remember the Don't Smoke video...it was shocking and sad.
I think he's at his young Bryner finest in Port of New York. It's jarring to see him with hair 😄 he really made bald sexy! Thanks for the memories!
Never forget when he said “don’t smoke”. Very impressive
Yeah. Spooky. He said "I'm gone now, don't smoke". Part of the reason I quit smoking.
See the very brief anti-smoking clip made in the '60s by the actor William Talman who was on the verge of dying from lung cancer. He had been a heavy smoker until it caught up with him.
I think people from that era didn't have hindsight enough to realize the consequences of smoking. ( Just like for drugs, it was the cool thing to do ).Just in the movies, they smoked like dragoons so in their private lives, I can't even imagine...🙄
Agree
@@lanadellhatestheclock3325 me too
I was fortunate enough to see Yul Brynner in The King and I on stage in Cincinnati Ohio before he passed away I had always loved this actor and was so happy to have this experience something i wiill always cherish.
Hard to compare his greatness to what we have now. When will the next truly great actor emerge? Perhaps when they make compelling stories again.
First you need a real author to write a bestseller. Then they make it into a good movie. I know writers still write, but the electronic age has changed all that. I miss reading a good book. So, you'll have to look to the "Indies" for compelling movies.
@@susanchase7880 Thank you!
Daniel Day Lewis stands head and shoulders above everyone these days but the golden age is sadly gone.
@@eddiemcgrath8536 However,he lacks onew thing. Charisma. He's an awesome actor,but he doesnt have that Panache.Which Yul did,in spades.
@@susanchase7880 Dude back then there was a lots of charismatic big movie stars.
i've had a mad crush on him since childhood. he, i'm sure was very aware of how he looked walking away. :)
Totally unbelievably talented actor. Wish we had more like that.
Awsome in the magnificent seven a real dudes flix!
V
Umm,..It's my favorite film of Yul's. Chris Adams was awesome.With all those gorgeous men in it,it's pure eye candy for women. I'm just relieved that when they did the reboot they didnt use his name in it. Denzel is great,but he isnt Yul Brynner.
He was such a handsome man who commanded respect wherever he went..he had an unbelievable sexy voice that left you awestruck..an amazing actor and a sad loss to the film industry
Loved him in the Journey (1959). Very underrated movie also starring Deborah Kerr. I kinda feel like Yul picked up where Charles Boyer left off with the exotic leading man roles and the sexy, ambiguous accent and all. First thing I think of is Boyer playing a Japanese Naval Commander opposite Merle Oberon in Thunder From the East (1934) or Shanghai (1935) opposite Loretta Young who searches China for the half-Russian, half-Chinese industrialist played by Boyer whom she loves. I love these two guys.
VERY underrated.
Brynner and Kerr had an amazing on-screen chemistry, both in The Journey and, of course, in The King and I.
@@marilena7848 indeed. I felt the same about Charles Boyer and Irene Dunne in all the movies they did together.
Oh my. Another one of the greats. Charles Boyer was in The Buccaneer (1958) as well, in which Brynner played Jean Lafitte; he co-starred with Heston and the film was produced by De Mille but directed by Anthony Quinn.
@@xScooterAZx the Buccaneer is another great underrated movie
No other actor could play the roles Yul Brynner played. The definition of a star.
I fell in love with Yul Brynner when he scared the hell out of me in Westworld. I was 16 years old in 1973 when that movie came out and this man dazzled me. After that I watched him in Anastasia, The Ten Commandments, The Magnificent Seven and The King and I. Rest in Peace, thanks for everything.
Watch him in The Journey you will fall in love all over again! WOW! What a man!
Like a commenter below, I too fell in love with Yul Brynner when I saw the movie version of the King and I. His exotic good looks (from head to toe) and bearing made him such a breathtaking standout. I knew little about him, however, so this video was not only informative but, rather than detracting from his persona, explained it! Something that caught my I from all the still photographs in the video was the body hair on his arms, chest, and I assume legs. Never occurred to me that for parts like the King of Siam they/he needed to shave every body part that showed! And I've never seen Westworld, but now I want to see it because of your review of his performance. And, though I loved all those stills, the ones with Mr. Brynner holding a cigarette were a sad reminder of the ubiquitousness of cigarettes in those days. It's quite disturbing to look back at old movies, TV shows, JOHNNY CARSON, and see those damn cancer sticks between people's fingers or smoldering in an ashtray! Shocking that tobacco companies ever got away with that. And what a HORRIBLE thing to perpetrate on the public! We've lost far too many people prematurely because of that scourge of mankind! Change of subject and quick note: I've always been baffled by the kinds of things that men find erotic, most seemingly quite overt. Though I can't speak for all women, I think we're moved by subtler things. Case in point: King and I, "Shall We Dance" scene, when Anna is teaching the King to dance, and Mr. Brynner steps toward her and slowly slips his beautiful masculine hand around her waist -- takes my breath away every time!
YesWhew! I always know when that scene is coming,and I wind up holding my breath,right up ill the moment his hand connects.. Such an innocent gesture,but he makes it so devistatingly sensual.
@@xScooterAZx I couldn't have said it better!
Always love your videos, with your relaxing voice. 🦋🦋
Yul was a fabulous actor and one-of-a-kind. Hollywood and the movie viewing public were lucky to have him.
It’s amazing, Yul Brynner looked sexier as a bald man than with hair
also the same goes for Telly Savalas
Indeed. With hair he looked like an accountant.
He was a great actor
Yul smoked about 5-6 packs of cigarettes a day ? ,and during his work? A lot of cuts and breaks for him, though one would never know? Darn good actor ! and a great cowboy! MS 1&2 SPECTACULAR !
I'm a 17 year old girl from England but I love Yul so much, I first watched him in Magnificent Seven and it allllll went downhill from then. I now have a pillow, books, all his films (from dodgy Korean websites) and coasters. I even learnt Russian because of him. I absolutely adore him and his eccentricity
Yul will forever be indelibly linked with Cinema as a first rate example of the finest the craft had to offer. He has made an enduring impression. Also, it appears he was incapable of taking a bad photograph. What a remarkable thespian. Simply put, Yul was fabulous.
i was in love with him when i was a kid
I can very clearly remember seeing the PSA starring Ule Brenner and it was very powerful.
I only later learned that it was actually just an excerpt of an interview from GMA.
Legendary, he was.
😎🇺🇸
There are only two movie men who could have rendered me helpless. One was Peter O'Toole. The other was Yul Brynner.
I always had a crush on him as a teenager when my parents and I watched his movies. He was so mysterious and alluring. Meow!!! 😻🖤
He told a different life story to everybody who asked. People soon realized he was goofing on them cause he had like 19 different stories from where he was born... his parents, his upbringing... And he was a master at single ski water skiing... his grace, fluidity, and elegance was simply amazing
He was an exotic foreigner of course he had to re-invent his history
If you've never seen The Buccaneer, give it a go! Not only is it another pairing of Brynner and Heston, but it is one of the rare instances where Yul has a full head of hair. The story is enjoyable to watch, the acting is excellent, and Brynner eats up the scenery as usual.
Do you think he wore a toupee in the film I absolutely love this picture
Thank you!!!! I loved watching this.... I can now see, much of my own father's charisma was in tandem with Mr Brynner's....an honor to both.
Loved the stage presence and the persona of this man !
people should read "Yul: The Man Who Would Be King : A Memoir of Father and Son",written by his son,Rock Brynner. It's an awesome read,and eye opener.
He would have made an interesting Professor X…
Born too soon. I wonder if he didn’t inspired Prof X’s look in the comics like Persis Khambatta did later with Moondragon .
@@PungiFungi Marvel's moondragon character was made years before Persis' Star Trek character
@@JohnWilliams-sq7cj but I think her later drawings, especially in The New Defenders, took inspiration from Khambatta.
@@PungiFungi fair enough
His brooding, smoldering and quietly menacing presence in Invitation To A Gunfighter was epic
Lord,she wanted him,but she knew better. Jules Gaspard d'Estaing was soo sexy.
😍 fine like wine 🍷💜
Such a Great actor. Loved all his movies. Such a great loss. ❤
Age, do you know Johnny Hallyday ? I'm in France and he was as big as Elvis in the US. He died a few years ago from cancer too, abusing him too of the cigarettes...a true rock star. He's very praised and loved since and he'll always be. Please do a video about him. He's a very interesting character, you'll see. Take notes please and thx you for your amazing work 😉😘
Johnny Halliday is indeed our Elvis. We love him dearly.
An amazing actor.......he was great in the Magnificent Seven !!
This was wonderful. I didn't know that Yul Brynner had such an interesting background.
At one time, he mentioned his SWISS and ROMA (Gypsey) background.He performed in bars and restaurants in Paris with his sister. He sang and played the balalayka while his sister danced.
Great analysis of a truly great performer. He created a unique zone and fully inhabited it. What an inspiration. Thank you for this.
Thank you Paul! 🙂
I'VE ALWAYS LOVED HIM!!
I'VE EVEN QUIT SMOKING
DUE TO HIM!!(yet, feel back).
HOWEVER, HE WILL BE IN MY
HEART!!
Yul Brynner was one of a kind. There has never been another like him. My high school did the King and I, and he overshadowed the actor who played the King. He played the King as Yul did. He was amazing. One of a kind
Yul Brenner owned the King. No one else should ever try to play that role again. I feel the same about Kathryn Hepburn in Lion in Winter
wonderful icon. thank you for sharing.
I have seen other videos on this terrific actor but yours is much more complete and informative. Thank you for an excellent history/biography. I truly enjoyed it.
An interesting man and actor for sure!
Loved him as Ramases in the 10 Commandments. I truly consider him and Charlton Heston as co-leads in that one :-)
He was great in the movie "Anastasia" with Ingrid Bergman.
That was when I first saw him and I left the theatre stunned.
@@ccmarcum I'm going to ask the nearest theater that shows classic movies to have a Yul Brenner double feature with "Anastasia" and"The King and I" So handsome in the King and I!
‘’Anastasia” is my favourite Ingrid Bergman film ; her opening scenes are haunting as are her scenes with Helen Hayes.
Brynner is fine but is out-classed by the two women.
@@davidallen508 I agree about the two ladies. I also like Ingrid Bergman in "Gaslight." She really seemed....well...gaslighted in the film. Just a wonderful performance.
@@davidallen508 Mr.Allen.. They each were fine actors. and I sure drew admiration from audiences for various reasons but NOONE could Outclass Mr Brynner. He Defined It!!! He owned his niche in the industry!!
Sorry---I adored him. whatever his lies were, he was a MAN, not a soy boy with a man bun. Loved his acting.
He was my favorite Hollywood actor.
He was down to earth. Refreshing comparing to the stars of today.
@@lindseycarribean5113 hi
He was a good actor can I ask were you are from
I enjoyed and loved these two unknown movies: "Taras Bulba" with Tony Curtis and "The Journey" with Deborah Kerr. Highly recommend both !
There was no one like him before him or after him. The world's most interesting man.
Now another russian gem. Please do a video about Rudolph Nureyev. I ❤ him ❣
Please don't forget the must beautiful woman ever....
Natalie Wood🇷🇺
@@joerod7526 not the most beautiful but definitely one of the most talented.
It never ceases to amaze me how Tatars, Buryats, Bashkirs are being erased in the West.
Rudolph N. was not a noble man like Yul. Rudolph was selfish.
What an excellent, thorough biography!
Very well done video. Thanks for actually narrating and not using a "robo voice" I've seen every one of the original Star Trek multiple times, and don't recall him in that show. I'd like to know more about that. He was an interesting guy and quite a life.
Regardless, he was a timeless talent
You’ve answered many questions I’ve had about him for decades! Thank you.
nice review. Yul really was a superb actor. Huge presence on film.Very masculine.
Who in Hollywood did not , they were often talented but all were fragile broken and often without any moral compass. So sad. Yul was a potent and exotically gorgeous man all the while deeply damaged.
He was an imposing figure on the screen, mysterious and charismatic and exotic. He was very popular regardless of shaven head and most people gathered he was foreign born.
Just so Joanne and all that was not lost on me who had such a crush on him. He is the only bald headed man that I ever found to be sexy.
@@upthedown1 Telly Savalas?
@@xScooterAZx Actually Telly Savalas was kinda sexy but the bald beaded look just doesn't do it for me.
@@upthedown1 Bald headed? Only a few men can actually carry off baldness,in my opinion.
@@xScooterAZx I agree
Bravo -- terrific presentation! But don't tell us you don't adore his Pharoah role? Maybe you were quoting him about that headgear.
May I recommend a now completely forgotten Brynner masterpiece -- 1963's Kings of the Sun? The entirely pre-Columbian story is profound, YB's role in it pivotal. Absorbing and totally unique!
The video didn't mention his role in Anastasia with Ingrid Bergman, an often overlooked but great film.
Thank you Scronx! 🙂 Yes, it is hard to cover everything in such a short video. That is why I make sometimes more videos about one person.
Just watched Kings of the Sun about a month ago. George Chakiris was in it as well. Their characters of two tribal chiefs, one Indian and one Aztec? start as enemies but end as allies and friends. Sadly, Yul's character dies at the end.
One of my favorite films.
@@diannelavoie5385 Sorry, what do you mean by one Indian? Don’t you know that the Aztecs were native Americans also, except in Mexico?
Enjoyed greatly
Thank you Bernard! 🙂
Yul Brynner's jealousy towards Steve McQueen, during the filming of The Magnificent seven" is legendary. Although McQueen wasn't a superstar in 1960 when the film was made, it was already obvious who's the bold primadona and who'll become The King of cool. The thing that annoyed Yul the most was how Steve couldn't be provoked or get mad. He stayed, well, cool. Putting all that aside, The Magnificent seven turned out to be one of the best western movies in history.
Yul Brenner is and always will be on the top of my list of my favorite actors of all time. His movies "The King and I", "The Ten Commandments" and "The Magnificent Seven" will always be (for me) among the most watched of all his films. I learned a lot more about this Hollywood legend in this video--Thank you!
Yul Brynner is a one off. His roles just wont work if you try to put someone else in them. Ok,I take that back,for one movie. Ken Watanabi as the King,in "The King and I".A newer movie. I tried not to like him as the King,but I was totally won over. He played it so differently than Yul,and it didnt fel like a betrayal.
Yul Brynner’s roles as Nobles in “The King and I”, and in “The Ten Commandments” were my favorites by him. But his heartfelt role as a spokesman for the the American Cancer Society was the Most Noble and sadly most memorable. End of an Era.
Etcetera,…etcetera,…etcetera!⭐️🎬
I mostly know him as Ramses in the Ten Commandments.He was awesome in that role.
Yes that's he is sometimes called *Yul's Pharaoh* his grave is in france at this coordonates 47,0093032, 0,4858446
I freaking love Yul! 🤩 Started watching him as a kid, after my grandpa introduced me to his movies. Whenever I hear of “The Magnificent Seven”, first thing that comes to mind is Yul Brynner, then everybody else (and no, not that damn remake a few years ago either… please). During Easter weekend every year, I wait for “The Ten Commandments” - again, Yul, then Charlton Heston & everybody else. RIP LEGEND 🙌🏽
My favorite film of his is Anastasia, his relationship with a woman for profit of inventing her identity, they end up falling in love. His performance is magnificent
Too bad he was never a James Bond villian.
He would have stolen the show entirely
Thomas Lawrence :: You're right ! So is Bill Olsen.
@@cliffgaither ;-)
Thomas Lawrence - OMG, you:re right. He would have taken 007 to a whole nother level, his presence, sex appeal and physicality alone would have been insane.
He would have been awesome!
