Trivia Fact: He was the first American citizen to line up at the window and buy some gold after FDR’s ban on Americans owning gold was repealed in 1974. That might be directly related to his role in Million Dollar Duck. The gold ban is a major plot point of that film.

Yep, remember the Love Bug in the theaters. Great fun in a bygone era.
To: Borges
Oh, too bad! Nice career especially in the 60s. Starred in the B’way play “Company” in the 70s.

Lovely to hear he found strength in Christ. He quit the B’way hit “Company” because of his bad nerves and stage fright - this was in the very early 70s.

I bought this and a couple other dog movies for my dad and we watched this a lot.
Snowball express was another..
Dean Jones. Good actor. And apparently from what I learned today from an obit, a better man..

Some of my happiest memories were going to the drive-in to see Disney movies... especially the “Love Bug” series. RIP.
