Met Joseph at a traffic light today in Milnerton, Cape Town. He told me he lost his fingers due to frostbite on a Chinese tuna trawler 20 years ago. He was made to work without gloves for several days.

The Cameo Artist. Timothy Carey was out of his mind, this likely semi-improvised scene with Seymour Cassel from Cassavetes Minnie and Moskowitz, his career was just five minute appearances in many great films like Paths of Glory, shows him in very real pain… or not.
