In the early 50s as a kid in Newhall CA., I was in some crowd scenes on a movie called "Suddenly". Frank Sinatra was an assassin, trying to shoot the President. Sterling Hayden was the small town sheriff, who shot him at the movie's end...

In the mid 70s, I was an extra in the low budget action number, "Vigilante Force". I was cast as a hold up man. We robbed a bank, took a woman hostage, and killed two cops. I tried to shoot Jan Michael Vincent from the getaway car, but only hit some innocent bystander instead. 8>( It was an exciting, and fun time!

Later in the film, I had a scene with Kris Kristofferson, where I was an armored car guard, and was in several crowd scenes... I had no lines, but did lots of serious emoting over those several days on the set.... I should have gotten an Oscar for my performances. HawHawHaw!
