Strange - the date appears to be current, but the article isn't new information. There has been a thread (some time back) on Larry's gangster connections and if the article linked to hadn't got a date on it, I would have said it was something which had been linked to from the previous thread.
Maybe they have just updated an old one.

Quack!

"Mr. Otway grew up a Quaker and still affects a mustacheless beard and plain dress." -- as if that's just a habit he couldn't break from childhood?? That's a funny sentence.

He is one of the most interesting Mudcatters.

I wouldn't have recognised him from the photo. He has aged since I last saw him 5 years ago.

Clyde Barrow died outside the car, didn't he? And Bonnie inside it.

Nice article.

"I'm either a Renaissance man or a victim of attention-deficit-hyperactivity disorder," he said.

Good for those who enjoy his works.

I've been searching round - has this Lorcan Otway guy got a regular website?

Lorcan himself posted that article a few years ago as noted above. Odd they have this year's date on it.

Al, he's got a blog HERE. He's also been here a long time and his postings make for very interesting reading material, imo.

He's also on Facebook as "Lorcan Otway."

And, here is a video of him explaining the opening of an old theatre in his family Old Speakeasy. There are also other youtube vids of him.

He's bringing GHOSTS TO THE THEATRE to tell the history of the place from the 1600s on. Fascinating!

Re: Clyde

In Arthur Penn's 1967 movie, Clyde is out of the car, trying to get back to it. In a film of the death scene (saw it last weekend), he's in the driver's seat.
