Seeing as how he was a married man and it was my grandma, his wife, who introduced them, nothing came of it.

I flunked out of Hollywood as a four year old but kept the dream alive promising to be a television engineer. Alas for my personal fame and fortune after two years of it I changed my major to Biology and became a lowly science teacher. Lucky for me that's how I met my brilliant wife.

My grandfather was an Army Air Corp officer in World War II and then an aerospace engineer building missile components and stuff. Some of his Hollywood connections, via my grandma and her sister mostly, probably complicated his security clearances in ways he never spoke of.

I'm going to watch this

I became a big fan of hers after watching Big Little Lies. J.K. Simmons and Nina Arianda are really interesting choices as Frawley and Vance. Arianda was terrific in Goliath. Plus Javier Bardem as Desi, and Aaron Sorkin's dialogue, this has got to be good. Thanks for posting.
