“Happiness has a bad rap. People say it shouldn’t be your goal in life. Oh, yes it should.” — Richard Dreyfuss
(This guy is one of my all-time favorite actors! He’s been in so many great movies, and I guess he’s also done a lot of television, over the years. He used to remind me, a lot, of a director and theater professor that I had back in college. The guy’s name was Jan Ijams. I wonder whatever became of that guy? For you Western fans out there, you might be interested to know that they’ve shot a movie based on the later 1960s television show, The Big Valley! It’s currently in post-production. It looks like it’s got a great cast, but I can’t find anything on a release date. Richard Dreyfuss is in it, and also appeared in an episode of the television series, way back in 1967! Talk about coming full circle! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

He’s a great actor! My two favorite films with Dreyfuss are: Close Encounters of the Third Kind and, of course, Moon Over Parador in which his acting abilities really shone through.
“Moon Over Parador” is a great comedy! I think he’s best when he’s in a role that has a sense of humor. He has great comic timing.
