I’m an actor who is very fortunate to be in a movie that’s making wonderful noise, and hopefully helping parents and children to be a little closer. Leave me alone. I’m not talking about politics. I’m just trying to have a conversation with my own kids.

Gotta love it.

Back when I was a kid and Dukes was still in prime time I saw him at a restaurant at Disney World. I summoned up the courage and (not understanding privacy at that age) approached his table for his autograph. I remember to this day how nice he was about it and even engaged me in some small talk.

Very down-to-earth guy back then, and now, it would appear.

Don't wait too long. It was only at our local theater for two weeks.

And that was only because a local woman personally guaranteed the operator a thousand tickets would be sold and she would make up the difference if it didn't.

I don't know how that turned out but I would say there were about 50 people at the showing we went to.

And that was the 11:00 a.m. showing on a weekday.

Hopefully, she didn't have to shell out any money but at the very least I'm sure she has stored up treasures in heaven for herself.

Great movie. Go see it.

"I can’t imagine somebody feeling that their relationship with their creator – whoever he or she may be – is so solid that they have time to get into my shit about my belief system."

But yet thats all they seem to have time for.......

Gee and I would have though it was just because he can’t act.

I believe he’s involved in charity work for disabled children. One of our choir members back in Texas got to know him through benefits for ...whatever it was, exactly.

Plot? October BAby is about a young lady who finds out accidentally (because she has a health crisis) that she is 1) adopted 2) survivor of a failed abortion 3)the surviving sister of a set of twins (brother died as a result of the abortion. The plot is about her attempts to find her birth mother and to put order in her own life and how this action affects those around her — adoptive parents, friends, birth mother, etc.

The plot is not really about abortion. That is just the vehicle through which this story is told. The story is really about growing up, love, forgiveness, helping those in need, caring for your neighbor, unforseen consequences of your actions, etc. It’s an unusual coming of age story.
