Almost all genre film fans know character actor Dick Miller. Here he is tending bar behind Richard Denning and Peggie Castle in Roger Corman’s The Oklahoma Woman (1956).
There’s a documentary on Miller in the works, one that I’m dying to see. You can help get it done through Kickstarter. And while you’re there, you can see Dick’s home movie footage from the set of A Time For Killing (1967), which Corman began directing, but was completed by Phil Karlson. Mugging for the 8mm camera are Glenn Ford, Inger Stevens, Harry Dean Stanton and Timothy Carey. Be sure to check it out.
UPDATE (August 21, 2012): Elijah did it. If any of you out there pledged to help make this happen, thanks. I’m dying to see it.
Hey Toby, sorry I didn’t get to your site sooner, but thanks for sharing it with me. I don’t watch a whole lot of westerns, but I do like to watch Bonanza on TV Land, so I hope that counts!
Take care,
Mike
Oh sweet. Dick miller is one of my favorite character actors of all time.
