John karlin a great actor

[@RachelDavisMatthews]

Casting legend Marion Dougherty did the casting the first two years. Lara, David Selby, Alexandra, Kathy Scott, John Karlen, Nancy Barrett, Denise Nickerson. Then she cast Selby in a Streisand movie in early 70s he told me and Denise said she was cast by Marion in Willie Wonka and almost The Exorcist until Denise and her Mom didnt think it was an appropriate part for her age at the time. Like hearing these stories

[@lisastone8695]

LOVED JOHN MANY PEOPLE THOUGHT JONATHAN FRID WAS THE HIGHLIGHT WHEN HE CAME ON BUT IN REALITY THE HIGHLIGHT WAS WHEN WILLIE LOOMIS OPENED THAT DAMN COFFIN AND THE LOOK ON WILLIE'S FACE.
