Nice work, Mark.

Anything to help me get the image of Elliott Gould sucking on a Marlboro, holding his hands up placatingly and saying, "Heyyyy mannnnn, it's coool...." when thinking of THE LONG GOODBYE is a good thing.

All the Best-

Brian

  Jim,

  Thanks for the kind words about the article. And, yes, you are right: I
  I completely spaced on Ohls! I just put a short two-liner up for him,
  too. Thanks for pointing it out.

  By the way, for those of you who had trouble getting to the article
  because the URL I gave broke across two lines, here is a shorter link:

  Thx.
