Thanks for the thoughts on Jean-Paul Belmondo. I have only seen three of his movies….and I do not remember his role in either Casino Royale or Two Women. That pretty much leaves my entire experience with him as an actor in the movie Breathless. At least that is the one that made him a superstar. Good stuff as always.

Have you heard of any of these people?
Hey Dan. I have not heard of any of the actors you listed at the end of your comment. Thanks for sharing these lists on JPB. I guess the Oracle people give lots of credit to French films. His ranking is very high for a retired actor….granted he is a legend. Looking at the first list….Alain Delon gets the honors as most frequent Oracle co-star. Only 7 Oscar winners…but in fairness he did not make many Hollywood movies. Good stuff as always. Finally got some time to start finalizing your interview….but then I started to panic about my upcoming hybrid classes I start teaching this week….so I had to stop before I finished it.
Don’t worry about the hybrid, my wife is doing it. 1 day she works in a hospital with students, 1 day she teaches from home and 1 day every 2 weeks she goes in to school and teaches (alternating with another teacher and course).
In New York they are talking of shutting down schools again for 14 to 28 days in 7 zip codes that covid percentage test results have risen.
Hey Dan….I like your wife’s schedule….here…I get to teach online and virtual at the same exact time for 16 classes a week…..with an addition 12 only online 12 times a week. Sorry to hear that the covid percentage is rising again….2020 will go down in history as one of the most unique years of all.
Hey Dan…my first hybrid class was a complete disaster…..the way my class works I have one group of students in my classroom with me and one group online…..the next day they swap….so the ones originally in the classroom are now online and the ones originally online are in person. After the first one went so bad….I told everybody I was sorry. One girl on my left (she was online the first day) said…..”it was teeeerrrribbbbllllleee”. No thoughts on my feelings….lol. The rest of the week went much better.
Great UMR Page.
Thank you Mike
Joel subject number 408 is now complete. 2 more Joel subjects to go. The greatest Sherlock Holmes and the most famous quartet from Liverpool.
For me the greatest Sherlock Holmes will always be Jeremy Brett
Hey Flora….ok….the second greatest Sherlock….lol.
Not Leslie Howard’s son in that 1950’s TV series!! Not Robert Downey Jr.!!! No, I agree with you.
Hey Dan….I guess tomorrow will actually be the 9th person that played Holmes that has an UMR page….following Robert Downey, Jr. (2 times), Michael Caine (1 time), Will Ferrell (1 time), Ian McKellan (1 time), Benedict Cumberbatch (not sure how many times) Christopher Plummer (1 time) and John Barrymore (1 time).
