I've heard so many different sides to this story,it gets more confusing each time. Was Chalky Wright born In Durango,Mexico(which would make him a Mexican),or Durango,Colorado (that would make him an American)?
I heard Wright kept Mae West busy in bed quite a number of times.

Bennie,

I feel the same way as you about Oscar De La Hoyo, not that he bores me, but I got the feeling that something was not true about him, what? I don't know.

Here's the the thing that makes me wonder if that big smile of his is just a front. In the past,he's put his hands on women. Now when someone like LaMotta or even Suger Ray did that.it kind of figured. But the "Golden Boy"? The kid all the Mexican mothers want their sons to be like? The guy who has a voice like marshmallow syrup strained through an old brassier?

I won't lose any sleep if this Forbes kicks his ass tonight.

I just remembered. Mike Mazurki was talkin' one time about Mae West. I guess she had a thing for fighters and wrestlers. Mazurki said that West couldn't get enough of him. Here's the thing though. Mazurki said that Mae West went absolutely "ape" over a broken nose. She made as much love to a guy's broken nose as the rest of him. Take a look at Wright's nose. You could imagine where that nose had been.

I seen Frank's nose close up. I don't think he was bangin' Mae West.

Got any pics of Quinn? It's the nose. I'm tellin' ya',Mae West was not into pretty boys,or Golden Boys.

I'm waiting for this fight to begin and I gotta listen to DeLaHoya double talk me to death. This guy talks in circles. If it isn't his mouth,it's Merchant or Lampley goin' on. I think I'll turn off the sound and break my nose.

Anthony Quinn

Anthony Quinn
born: 21-04-1915
birth place: Chihuahua, Mexico
died: 03-06-2001

Born into an impoverished environment in Mexico, Antonio Rudolfo Oaxaca Quinn's family moved to Los Angeles, in search of work and a better quality of life. Quinn spent his boyhood years helping support his family by doing odd jobs.

Before becoming an actor, Quinn had been a prize-fighter and a painter. He launched his film career playing character roles in several 1936 films, including 'Parole' and 'The Milky Way', after a brief stint in the theatre. In 1937, he married director Cecil B. DeMille's daughter, Katherine De Mille, but this did nothing to further his career and Quinn remained relegated to playing "ethnic" villains in Paramount films through the 1940s.

By 1947, he was a veteran of over fifty films, but he was still not a major star. So he returned to the theatre, where for three years he found success on Broadway, in such roles as Stanley Kowalski in 'A Streetcar Named Desire'.

Upon his return to the screen in the early 1950s, Quinn was cast in a series of B-adventures like 'Mask of the Avenger'. He got one of his big breaks, playing opposite Marlon Brando in Elia Kazan's 'Viva Zapata!'. His supporting role as Zapata's brother won Quinn his first Oscar and, after that, Quinn was given larger roles in a variety of features.

Quinn won his second Best Supporting Actor Oscar portraying the painter Gaugin, in Vincente Minnelli's 'Lust for Life'. The following year, he received another Oscar nomination for George Cukor's 'Wild Is the Wind'. The success of 'Zorba the Greek' in 1964 was the high-water mark of Quinn's career during the 1960s, and it provided another Oscar nomination. But as the decade progressed, the quality of his film work noticeably diminished, and Quinn was largely relegated to TV for the rest of his career.

Quinn has fathered thirteen children, and has been married several times. He died in June 2001.

Mae West,.. married several times , ...13 kids.
He aint Zorba the Greek.
Zorba the Woodsman is more like it.

Wasn't that one of the greatest fights of all time? Why the Mexican National Anthem? The Mariachis were great,but who was the Mexican? I saw two Americans in there. Now our National Anthem also made me wonder. One of the Pussycat Girls singing a real shitty blues version of the Natinal Anthem in front of the Marine Corps Color Guard with her boobs hanging out.

Now the fight.At least there were no stare downs. After watching DeLaHoya and Forbes,all I know is if Mae West was still around,she'd kick both their asses. And after she finished with them,I'd want her to call out Sylvester"Sly Rocky Balboa" Stallone and break his nose.

Anthony Quinn always cracked me up. One time he was doing an interview on TV with one of his wives. His wife is tellin' the world that her husband(Tony the Pony)cheats on her. What do you think Quinn's reply is?
"Honey,please,we're on television."
I mean the guy had principles.

What pissed me off was towards the end of her singing,she was covering them up with her hand.
I mean the gal has principles.

That's always been a major problem for me. The girls know when I'm "undressing them with my eyes." Even when they're on television.

Quinns Father was half Irish.
Im reminded of the Irish and Mexican link that was solidified by The San Patricios.
A group that is left out of kids schoolbooks here and many would like to downplay.
But they are part of history strongly honored in Mexico .
Our heritages are very similar.
A great article:
http://americanindiansource.com/patricios.html

Anthony Quinn was trained as an architect by Frank Lloyd Wright, who took the young Quinn under his wing.

Wright sent Quinn to speech classes, explaining that half of the the success of architect depended on his making convincing presentations to the well off people who commissioned such work.

Quinn went to the speech classes, then acting classes and dropped the architecture.
