Brion James

I'm watching 'Bound for Glory' right now, it is a biopic about a couple of years in the life of Woody Guthrie. I noticed a few character actors in it, but Brion James really caught my eye. I knew I recognized him, so looked him up on allmovie & imdb. Turns out he's been in a ton of movies/tv shows -- he had a personal policy of never turning down a role. A couple of notable movies: In God's Hands (hollywood surf movie with great surfers, and a weak script), the Player, Tango&Cash, Red Heat, Steel Dawn, 48 Hrs., Blade Runner. Pretty impressive, eh? The tv credits are nuts: Rockford Files, Incredible Hulk, Mork & Mindy, the Jeffersons, CHiPS, Little House on the Prairie, Dukes of Hazzard, the Fall Guy, the A-Team, Matlock, Sledge Hammer!, Miami Vice. The tv shows of my youth...
