Okay, Don. I believe everything but that part about "Ronald Reagan was a president." There's some doubt in my mind about that one. I think he was asleep and dreaming through the whole thing.
Actually, I have a lot of respect for Mitchum. He was married and loyal to one woman throughout his career, a rarity anywhere, but especially in Hollywood. Makes me think he was a real person, not just an actor. He also sang in Night of the Hunter, didn't he? And Joe Hickerson learned the hymn and recorded it for us.
I take back my unkind remark about Thunder Road. Ya got me!
A repentant Sandy
