In 1985, Holton also played the role of Francis In "Pee-wee's Big Adventure" and Chubby in "Teen Wolf." Guess what he looks like now! … [Read more...] about Ozzie In ‘Leprechaun’ ‘Memba Him?!

Richard III (1461-1483) is one of Shakespeare’s most malevolent villains, a deformed hunchback usurper and murderer. But historians have contested the portrayal of the last king of the House of York and Plantagenet dynasty, noting history is often (re)written by the victors, in this case the Tudors. A society of “Ricardians” at work for years to rehabilitate the monarch’s image, and other well-wishers, chipped in to fund a costly … [Read more...] about Philippa Langley On Digging Up ‘The Lost King’ Richard III After 500 Years – Specialty Preview
