No. 204: DABNEY COLEMAN / He was greatest heel in modern cinema history, so of course he was perfectly cast as a sportswriter.

Few saw The "Slap" Maxwell Story in its first run & it's an actuarial certainty that fewer still remember it. For those in the biz, a loutish scribe at the failing Ledger landed too close to home.

Behind the bar, Bill Cobbs as The Dutchman, on the bar Megan Gallagher as the age-inappropriate paramour and fedora-clad as ever Dabney Coleman as the title character in The ‘Slap’ Maxwell Story.
