Ran into him sometime later in TINSEL CITY where I actually coached him and acted as his double. Taught him the art of trapeze, though the tights were his idea ...

Wow! what an amazing life. I didn't realize how much Kirk Douglas looked like Burt Lancaster back in his younger days. But back then, we lived so far out there wasn't anybody behind us. I, too, spent time in a repeat situation. Stuck all those years in second grade. Only second grader that drove his own car to school.
