My favorite CHUCK CONNORS movie after SOYLENT GREEN Is still GERONIMO (in which he met his wife!) Say what you will but "Geronimo" and DUSTIN HOFFMAN' LITTLE BIG MAN fueled my interests in Indigenous history and the various cultures!
was more of a chuck fan so had to guess on some.didpretty well.id forgotten about flipper which was a favorite movie when i was a kid
Didn't do too good, 9/13. When they give "Both" as a choice that threw me off. DYK....I believe Chuck Conners, while as a rookie for the Celtics, was the first player to break the glass backboard going for a lay-up. He was 6'6' and a heluva athlete.
I remember Tightrope vaguely from when I was very young. Wish someone would put that one on their schedule.
Which one played Superman in the 1950s? (No resorting to IMDB!)
When I was a kid my brother and I would bug our Mom to make us one of those pies every time this episode was on.
i know chuck was in a weird episode of the george reeves superman where he was a hick who traveled around with a donkey
