Bugs Bunny<br />
Groucho Marx<br />

Please add to the list.</p>

Sounds great. Would like to keep in touch. Been busting butt on the script. Has many of our favorite influences. Feeling highly inspired. Our discussions helped ignite some intriguing plots and ideas. We did much brainstorming which boosted my writing.<br />
Our extensive THRILLER Thread could have been edited into a book. We covered all the grounds.<br />
I'd like to send you my E-Mail.<br />
Youtube has episodes of CAINS HUNDRED, always a curiosity. No NAKED CITY, but the one I watched had a great performance from Ed Begley that fully carried it.<br />
Grand, indeed.</p>

<p dir="auto">Yup. Same, Deluge<br />
.<br />
I was thinking of you, among many others with whom I shared the good times with here, shall send you a new e-mail (I don't want to use my old ones, for obvious reasons), which I'm going to use for all my IMDB friends. It's been grand.</p>

<p dir="auto">Una, for sure.<br />
Dwight Frye, goes without saying. He could troll without uttering a line of dialogue. Just his presence was trollish.<br />
How's about the dynamic duo of Martin Kosleck and Reggie Nalder?<br />
No brainer: Skelton Knaggs.</p>

<p dir="auto">Good one. Or maybe not so good, depending on one's taste in comedians.<br />
I think Sterling Holloway might qualify.<br />
Jack Carson was a rather trollish presence before he signed on with Warners and went "legit", so to speak, and even then he could be trollish, as in<br />
Arsenic And Old Lace<br />
.<br />
Comedian Eddie Collins, whose time at the feast was brief, was a troll-type comedic player for about three years at 20th Century-Fox.<br />
Tim Carey rather mugs and trolls his way through all the films in which he appears.<br />
Harpo was the troll of the Marx Brothers, who were arguably all trolls anyway, with Harpo the standout.<br />
Benign trolls: Andy Devine, John Qualen, Edna May Oliver, Mildred Natwick, "Scotty" in<br />
The Thing From Another World<br />
, Paul Kelly's "boyfriend" character in<br />
Crossfire<br />
, I suppose Milton Parsons' various coroners, undertakers and butlers,he never seems to do any real harm.</p>

<p dir="auto">"Miss Harrington had much to tell - and these columns shall report her faithfully - about the lamentable practice in our theatre of permitting mature actresses to continue playing roles requiring a youth and vigor of which they retain but a dim memory, about the understandable reluctance of our entrenched first ladies of the stage to encourage, shall we say, younger actresses and Miss Harrington's unsupported struggle for opportunity."</p>
