"I have been acting in films since 1957 and have worked with some of the biggest stars of all time, such as Cary Grant, Tony Curtis, Clint Eastwood and many more huge stars. I have been on two very popular TV shows (Mary Tyler Moore and The Love Boat). Nothing even compares to the privilege I have had in playing the role of Jonathan Sperry in this film.
