Murray Hamilton was one of those character actors whose face would be familiar to most movie buffs at an instant, yet his name may not. That's a shame, because Hamilton was one of the most versatile and prolific of performers who was never anything less than completely convincing in any role he took on, from priests to gangsters, soldiers to politicians, ordinary men to aliens. His characters would rarely fail to evoke emotion, whether that be sympathy or dislike. He particularly excelled at har

Meanders around a little too much for this kind of thriller but made in an era where they could actually have fun with sports properties without it needed to exude nothing but love for the organization involved. A time of peace and love and the Astros being in the World Series was a thing of such ridiculousness it could be movie magic. Take me back
