Nice item Greg. Arkin was very, very funny!  He was so very relaxed in Going in Style. I remember seeing Freebie and the Bean in the theater.

That is one of the most unusual Playbill cover designs I ever saw. I must look up a synopsis.

Thanks Eric for  your comment. I agree he was very funny, and one of my favorites was The Inlaws with Peter Faulk. If you haven't seen it yet I highly recommend it. Vintage 1977. He was also a great dramatic actor.  The Heart is A Lonely Hunter displays his serious side.

He and Jack Lemmon were my two favorite comedic actors. I got to interview him, and get his autograph. THE IN LAWS is one of the best comedies ever made (and Brando's favorite, and reason he did a movie by the screenwriter called The Freshman).

But it's ALAN with one L  !!!!!

Thanks Josh Board NEW & IMPROVED for pointing out my dumb  mistake. Josh really thanks for letting me know.  RIP Alan, he was truly a great actor.
