Last night I had a lot of work to do on the computer, and I needed something to watch on the tube while doing all this valube but boring work.

I know to some it sounds hilarious, but I rented "The Mack" It's an old movie, but I haven't seen it in a while, and I forgot a large portion of it. It was the dvd version, so it had a commentary documentary which I really enjoyed. I actually enjoyed it better than the movie. Max Julian's voice still sounds the exact same.

When I watched the movie and saw how convincing the actor that played "the blind man" was I thought to myself..."he's probably a player first and an actor second" LOL

Sure enough...after listening to the commentary...it was stated (in so many words) that this guy 'was' a player first and an actor second. I think his name is Paul Harris.

Name some actors or actresses, that you know of, that have had roles which are identical to their real life characters.
