In 1981 Dan Aykroyd did the improv set at The Second City in Chicago where we improvised what later turned out to be THE GODDAMN GREEK HALSTED STREET BLUES. Here is the rough old 3/4" black and white video from that great evening long long ago.
A segment on WBBM Chicago's evening newscast about "Hollywood coming to the Windy City". A window into a moment on the set of THE NAKED FACE with Roger Moore and director Bryan Forbes. A great personal memory. The inanity of the evening news 'show-biz' segment. Lucky for you - I tape everything!
