I saw Duvall when he was making this!


I used to work at a nightclub back in the Nineties. We had one security person who would also provide security on movie sets filming in Chicago. They needed a scene filmed at a small bar with a stage. One night, we were setting up for a big event. Because the rest room upstairs was being used for something, I had to go downstairs to that one. As I was going into the room, I saw a man with some other people coming into the entrance. "That man looks just like Robert Duvall." I said to myself. When I went back upstairs, a coworker came to me and said, "You're not gonna believe who's upstairs! Robert Duvall!" I saw him kind of up close, he was taller than I thought he'd be. Meanwhile, one of our managers couldn't think of any movies that he was in. I named them, but they went over her head. Not even "The Godfather"! Sadly, they ended up filming the scene at another bar.
