    Yes. Whatever happened to Alan Arkin? He was one of those chaps who was in everything in the 70s at one point and then sort of disappeared. Like Elliot Gould, George Segal and Richard Dreyfus.

    Don't know about the others, unless you mean "Adam" Arkin who was wonderful in Northern Exposure, but Gould was in Ocean's Eleven.

    I've never seen that. I like films about Elizabethan playwrights, I'll seek it out.
