In this endearing documentary, the feisty 93-year-old actor recounts some of the incredible stories of his life, including enduring the blacklist and his relationships with Orson Welles, Elia Kazan, Alfred Hitchcock, and Bertolt Brecht, among many others. From Tinseltown's heyday to his recent work in feature film (IN HER SHOES) and TV (THE PRACTICE), it's a prolific career that keeps on going--with no end in sight. [More]

There are names that fill in the cracks of Hollywood myth, and Norman Lloyd’s story seals several gaps.

I'm still not convinced that Norman Lloyd "should" be a household name.
