You're shyin' away
I'll be comin' for you anyway...

Happy Birthday to my favourite actor and one of my favourite humanitarians, Robert Ryan! He was brilliant in everything he was in, even his lesser films. While I'm at it, I recommend the fabulous biography titled THE LIVES OF ROBERT RYAN by J.R. Jones -- a terrific book, well worth a read!
