This is obvious and not uncommon, but America's couple, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson was the result of an extramarital affair.

Interesting. She told everyone she was Italian. Where I'm from, biracial people say they are Native American or Melungeon.


Because she is.

Anyway, Jason Miller is originally from Scranton, PA. He wrote a play "That Championship Season", of which he won a Pulitzer.

Because of the way he treated his wife, Jackie Gleason had him blackballed in Hollywood.

He returned to Scranton, was a falling down alcoholic who was mocked by people at the bars (Farley's, for those Scrantonians reading this), until he finally passed away.

It's was really sad to see.


Wow - I had no idea Jason Patric was Jackie Gleason’s grandson!

Reminds me of the line at the pool table that Sheen says to President Michael Douglas. Nvm. I doesn’t remind me well enough to repeat it.

From memory: “Without me, you’d be the most popular history professor at the University of Wisconsin.”
I love that movie.

He’s one of the only Hollywood stars without a Mansion. He said: "I live in a flat, I have everything that I need at anytime, why choose an empty house?"

One of his best friends died by overdose, River Phoenix. (Joaquin Phoenix’s brother)

He has been booed offstage when touring with his band, Dogstar.


He has a girlfriend now. Alexandra Grant, an artist.

Forgot to add this link of him as Easy Reader:

https://youtu.be/g9eX2ajK3A4


When he first started getting famous for other acting, I remember thinking, "what is the electric company guy doing here?" I was genuinely confused, because I just didn't understand the nature of acting and that actors moved around. (I was a kid, we had very little screen time and like 4 tv channels before you all call me an idiot.)
