How sad....he was such a good actor. From Andy Hardy to tv film "Bill". What a loss! :bluesad:
Yes,I'm fine....as long as I don't look too closely.

Indeed we did.  I got a glimpse of him at one of the east coast Chiller Theater shows but never got to actually meet him. he was sitting a few seats down from Noel Neill, Lois Lane from the 50's era Superman TV show.

Rest in peace to a small man with HUGE talent.

What can be said, that hasn't been said.

One of the few child actors who made it in acting as an adult
An acting career that began in 1926, and is not done yet.
When he died this month, he was appearing in "Night of the Museum 3" and "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."
Thus an acting career that extended over 88 years.
One of the last surviving actors from "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World."
And, unfortunately a man who brought happiness to others, did not have much happiness in his own life. Alienated from his children and his ex-wives, when he died he left behind an estate valued at only $18,000.

R.I.P. Mick. I'll always remember the first time I ever saw you. It was in one of your lesser known films "The Atomic Kid" w/ Robert Strauss from 1954.
