RIP, Dr. Bennell

Kevin McCarthy died over the weekend at age 96. He's probably the most famous for playing the lead, Dr. Miles Bennell, in the 1956 film "Invasion of the Body Snatchers," and I'll always love that movie.

And I'll always brag that, technically, I co-starred with him in his last movie, "Wesley," which shot here in N.C. in 2007. Sure, we never met because we were on-set weeks apart. And sure, I was an extra who lucked into one line of dialogue. But... technically.
