Jon Korkes as Kenny

Jon Korkes as Kenny is one of the greatest comic performances ever!

I greatly enjoyed him in this and also the madcap turn he did as a stowaway on Cameron's Titanic which was cut out unfortunetly. Also, he played a retarded murderer in an old Rifleman episode. Sing and dance to that one.

Nothing is more beautiful than nothing.

Yes! I'm watching the film now, having unearthed a pile of ancient videos I stashed in my attic. His performance as Kenny is just delightful.

It's a pity for him - though great for us - that there were so many excellent characters and actors in this movie that they overshadow Korkes' role a little.

(I'm watching Kenny and Alfred trying to load the rifle. Marvellous.)

Korks played Snowden in CATCH-22. Yes, he was great in LITTLE MURDERS

I think that he prefers to teach acting, rather than be in motion pictures.

Keep on bumping that. Just saw on TCM after years and forgot how good/funny he is...

He also creepy kills in Day of The Dolphin... One of the great character actors of the 70s...
