    McDowall had a reputation for being one of the nicest guys in Hollywood, both to co-stars and especially to his fans. They don't make many like him anymore, RIP to one of my favorite actors and overall just a class act of a human being.

    The guy with the thin moustache you see in many of the sit downs was Don (Dorance) Cash, my grandfather. I've only recently been made aware of this video, and he's prominent in it. He was a circus clown in the 30's, and did makeup prosthetic work for wounded and disfigured servicemen in WWII. After the war, he went on to a long career in Hollywood. His sons, my uncles, followed him into the makeup business. All three made careers at this until retirement. He died around 1980. I wish I knew enough about him to fill a book, it would have made a great biography.

    I am not surprised. He had a reputation of being very nice--genuinely nice-- to everyone he met and worked with. It never seemed to be an act. I loved him in so many roles and had a big crush. He also, as the story goes, "borrowed" so many master reels of movies that were not the most famous... and forgot to return them. His film library was legendary and... thanks to his collecting, we have so many films from the Golden Age available. If not for him, the studios would have thrown them away. He was the savior of so many movies. God bless him.

    This is what women are pressured into doing every morning - putting on their makeup wherever they go. If they don't put on make-up at work they get into trouble or don't get the job from interview. And get picked on even just going into town without it. In fact they're expected to wear it at home too by some. Men don't have to put it on. Now surely you can see how long it takes and how irritating putting on makeup is lol! 😅😆

    Ever since I was just a kid I admired this guy so much. My dad used to worry I'd grow up and marry him, but I didn't like him like that. It was more that he was my hero. I collected his films and his photography books. He was a great photographer, actor, filmmaker, party thrower, and best friend to everyone in Hollywood. Here he is videoing the makeup guy doing his make-up for Planet of The Apes and then after that he gets in a helicopter and takes areal video as they fly to the location...and then more footage backstage! Roddy captured it all with his camera and mastered being on both sides of the camera at once. Throughout my own artistic journey and growth Roddy's accomplishments have remained relevant to me. He was a pretty special dude. I wish I had met him. He might not have been in everyone's household encyclopedia of favorite actors, but he was in everything, he was a character actor since he could talk, and he was one of the most important people to have lived in our city because he had everybody's back. A good childhood hero to have.

    I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. McDowell at a convention once. He was there mostly to talk about Fright Night, but when I met him, I told him, 'Thank you for your terrific work in the Planet of the Apes films!" he says, "No, no... Thank YOU. If it weren't for fans like yourself, we wouldn't have gotten to do all the work we got to do." He was incredibly kind and witty. What a thrill!

I think the entire audience laughed for a few minutes. Charlton Heston, ugly?? Never!. This was made during a time when movies were either very good or very bad and this one was very good.
