A high school classmate of mine played one of the rapees in Laughlin's "Born Losers." I'm disposed to regard Peter O'Toole as the greater loss to the culture.
We all mourn the great man's loss -- but a little love here for the mighty Ms. Prentiss, as well, never better than in WNP? "You're a very weird girl!"
If god could do the tricks we can do, he'd be a happy man.

"Are you Richard Burton?"
"No, I'm Peter O'Toole."
"Then you're the finest man who ever breathed."

No argument there. But Laughlin meant more to me at 14.
