Sounds like we agree a lot on this movie. I thought Ving was dead when Tom Cruise shot him, of course, and a little surprised he had on a vest to save him.

The youtube clip is great, and very moving. I had no idea Ving had been an actor for so long, but when they mentioned he played Don King, that shook my memory. I really liked Jack Lemmon, and thought he was one of the funniest, most talented actors ever. It was really cool seeing all those actors & actresses in their younger chassis. Thanks for sharing that!
