    Bit late in the reply, but yeah as already said spoke out against being groped by some bloke who then had the influence to blacklist him.

    At the time he was a big star aswell.

    Yeah I had it as one to watch after reading the comments about it in here and you have just reminded me about it. Will have to give it a watch this week I think as it seemed like type of film I liked when I looked at the trailer.

    I'm sure that Data from the Goonies had something to do with it, writer or director.

    Trading Places is on film 4 now, and if you're quick, Jamie Lee Curtis is just about to get her norks out.

    Yes, he was in the movie Everything everywhere all at once.

    He was also short round in Indiana Jones.

    I'm watching the Evil Dead 2 on Sky Horror. It's hilariously bad and funny all at once.

    Blocks on his feet to drive the car. Temple of doom, my personal favourite.

    Yep. Brilliant. They should have left it at the trilogy, absolutely superb along with Back to the Future in terms of my favourites.

    Fun fact. Up until the 4th film, the only actor to appear in the first 3 films other than Ford, was Pat Roach.

    I knew he was the one who got squashed on the convert belt in temple of doom but didn't realise he was the bald bloke who fought Inddie by the plane in Raiders. Good fact that one.

    I'm sure he missed 1 or 2 episodes of Auf pet because he was filming a bit for Temple of doom at the same time.

    Some of the Scenery in Hannibal (2001) is stunning. Music is quality too.
