Nice to know (much) more about him. By the way, The Seven Faces of Dr. Lao was the first film I watched on TCM, and I ddin't remember Tony was the star of it!<br />Cheers!<br />LeLĂȘhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02419693749682458647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210602.post-91654750280054813872014-11-19T15:43:42.181-06:002014-11-19T15:43:42.181-06:00I had no idea he had such a successful and long ca...I had no idea he had such a successful and long career on the stage! I always enjoy his performances, and it was a lot of fun to read your post.

Love that opening to "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter," where Randall doubles for the 20th Century-Fox orchestra: "Oh, the fine print they put in an actor's contract these days!"Steve Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07460010481523481647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210602.post-88289916320652481652014-11-17T15:00:55.144-06:002014-11-17T15:00:55.144-06:00I assume there are still talk shows on television,...I assume there are still talk shows on television, but why watch them when there's no chance of Tony Randall appearing?<br /><br />Tony Randall, the touring actor, came to Toronto often and we would never miss the chance to enjoy his work live.<br /><br />With your detailed look at the versatility of his career, I'm convinced that Tony Randall's picture should be next to "actor" in the dictionary.Caftan Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936895555808823221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210602.post-24254595167061965742014-11-16T20:43:44.103-06:002014-11-16T20:43:44.103-06:00How can ya not just adore this guy, right?

I'm a huge fan of those 60's sex comedies too so that's my favorite of his roles. Awesome post, Terry!
