Joe completely blew my mind. I was never able to look at Pete Boyle agian without thinking about his role. In fact I was just talking about my reaction to the film to a friend and thought I should look it up to make sure I remembered it correctly. I did find out the Peter was born in Norristown Pa. at town I lived in until 1967. <BR/>Hard to believe his real self was far less violent.<BR/>Although like most people we believe the person on the screne is the real person. Films can be powerful for that reason, and decieving.<BR/>My favorite film these days is 'Little Buddha.' It has more redeeming qualities then a meditation on hatred.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31771970.post-19061980542609547012006-12-13T14:30:00.000-06:002006-12-13T14:30:00.000-06:00I'm only 30, so I'm not as familiar with Boyle's e...I'm only 30, so I'm not as familiar with Boyle's early work as I probably should be. However, it still saddens me that mentions of "Everybody Loves Raymond" are preceding "Young Frankenstein" in some of the obits I've been reading.Josh M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04054764121030646400noreply@blogger.com
