1. Great find!

Long before Lou Grant and Mannix. Fisher was sure a babe back then (she was 25 here and died at only 65 in 2000.) Asner was 35 here and is still with us (89 years old and still constantly working.)

3. Asner is the guy buried in paperwork who gets the new secretary

He sure looked different back in his 30s. Didn't we all lol. The bushy eyebrows are his distinguishing features. His part was relatively small in this film in terms of screen time, so it could be hard to spot him.


Wow the attitudes back then. I'm glad I grew up in a very diverse community. By the time I encountered the racism infection in the US I was immune. We've come a long way. We have a long way to go.

Edit to correct Asner's age from 20s to 30s

5. Thanks, that was an interesting film/time capsule.

Kept expecting Don Draper to walk through the door. And, I loved the repeating theme of "Look, I'm no bigot, buuuuuuuuut…."
