One of the alltime greats but such a bitter guy. I was him at a special screening of 'Mad Mad Mad Mad World' at the Egyptian in LA a couple of years ago and when he started talking, I looked over to my friend and said 'here we go!'

Soon he wandered off topic: self promotion, venom for the indutsry, bitterness. A shame. They cut him short (no pun), which was a good thing.

Yeah, he's gone pretty loopy in his old age. Every time I hear him talk now, he's complaining about something and bitterly reciting his resume.

He was AWESOME in Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World though, so I forgive any oldie wackiness. Even the bitter old man routine has its entertainment value.

Sorry to hear that. Do you think he was just having a bad day?
