 Ohio Reading Road Trip | Russel M. Crouse Biography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
It could be said that journalist and playwright Russel McKinley Crouse had writing in his blood; born in Findlay, Ohio, Crouse's father was a newspaper editor and publisher.
Crouse met his destiny in 1934, when he was recruited at the last minute to help write a musical with a writer named Howard Lindsay; the production was in such disarray when Crouse was hired, even the name had not yet been selected.
Later, when Crouse's daughter was born, he named her Lindsay, after the man who had shared his fame and success.

 Lindsay Crouse   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Tall, thin, and blonde, Oscar-nominated actress Lindsay Crouse has been appearing onscreen since the mid-'70s -- though contemporary, television-savvy fans may be more familiar with her thanks to memorable small-screen roles on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Providence, and Hack.
Crouse is a New York City native and the daughter of Life With Father author Russel Crouse; her literary father named her after his longtime writing partner Howard Lindsay.
Indeed, Crouse was equally effective in both film and television; small-screen roles in Norma Jean and Marilyn and If These Walls Could Talk (both 1996) proved just as compelling as her turn in Michael Mann's acclaimed 1999 drama The Insider.

The latter (played by Lindsay Crouse) meets the former (Joe Mantegna) when one of her clients is driven to despair from his debts to the card shark.
Lindsay Crouse's performance (what seems a very dry, unemotional persona is in fact a vulnerable, heart-breaking one) as a psychiatrist who needs help herself is chilling and unforgettable...
The acting was laughable (Lindsay Crouse was dull and wooden, while Montagna's lines came across comically though not usually intended to be so), the plot was entirely transparent (just imagine - getting conned by con men), and the character development left much to be desired.

While in Mexico, he meets a fellow scientist (Lindsay Crouse), who is there on her own investigation, as she has noted major atmospheric changes, which indicate that global warming is occurring at an alarming rate, almost as if there were a greenhouse effect.
The script does have a few head-scratchers here and there (I was particularly miffed that Lindsay Crouse's character, an environmentalist, wasn't familiar with the concept of terraforming) and some contrivances, but they're hardly bothersome and aren't noticeable until a second viewing.

How this perennial favorite came to the stage is worthy of a play itself: Having seen the professional actress, Dorothy Stickney perform, Kesselring sent her a copy of his original script, hoping she might be interested in playing one of the aunts.
Stickney (who was, not coincidentally, wife to the playwright and actor, Howard Lindsay) guffawed her way through a first reading, and Lindsay, curious as to what had caused his wife to collapse so helplessly with laughter, asked to read the script.
Lindsay and Crouse seemed to have been operating under the rules of this other universe when, having helped Kesselring create this third nephew, they had the idea that the best person to imitate Boris Karloff would be—Boris Karloff!

Within moments of his return to work after a getaway weekend in the woods with Maya, Spencer is named an "impostor," a genetically engineered cyborg with a "bomb in his ribcage" (at least he doesn't have a hugely symbolic uterus, like the bomb-carrying girl robot in Eve of Destruction).
According to Agent Hathaway (Vincent D'Onofrio), an imperious government flunky, Spencer is not who he thinks he is, but the Spencer-bot, sent by the aliens to assassinate a vital ambassador (Lindsay Crouse, on screen for about a minute).
In an instant, Hathaway captures Spencer and has him strapped into a chair to be executed.
