Happy 62nd birthday to Richard Dreyfuss. Loved him in The Goodbye Girl and The American President, which happen to be 2 of my all-time favorite movies. Remember sitting in the hotel bar of the Hotel Edison in New York one night with my mother, looking out the window that faces 47th Street when there was a minor commotion across the street and it turned out to be people surrounding Richard Dreyfuss for autographs as he was leaving through the stage door of one of the Broadway district theatres. Could barely see him in the crowd, he's so small.
On a side note, David Gates' title song for The Goodbye Girl is brilliant and almost brings me to tears every time I hear it. Yeah, I said it.

Ran into Mr D in Harvard Square once several years ago. He was in town to film a movie. The buddy I was with struck up a conversation with him (while watching a homeless fellow being taken off to a shelter on a very chilly night), and ended up walking him back to his hotel. Yeah, he's not tall.
Chilly in Boston? I'm not buyin' it.
