For me it's weird, I've heard the name "Pierre Cardin" for as long as I can remember. But I never actually knew why I should care.

True, this was not a missed opportunity. I had not noticed the claiming of King before I posted here. I shall edit my post.

I could have met Mr. Aaron (well, a nod and handshake) had I not been such a lazy fuck.
Seems he owned businesses after retirement.

Friend, if you ever wanted to draw a crowd in Atlanta all them tubular compressed air writhing boyos, giant inflatable gorillas, helium aerostats could not come close to this feller shaking hands and signing autographs.

Damn.

Always funny.

While her role in Young Frankenstein remains epic, I always loved her cameo in the underrated Malcolm in the Middle as the insane grandmother terrorizing the kids with her stories about the Holocaust and other things.

And of course Bad Santa.
