      Hey Dan. Thanks for the comment on Mr. Tom Skerritt. I just watched him in a supporting role in Broke with Wyatt Russell and Dennis Quaid. When I looked him up on IMDb I saw he was 91. So I figured getting him an UMR page might need some urgency…lol. Seeing he is in the Top 500 is pretty impressive since his last 10 years has only produced a handful of movies. As a movie fan I always associated him with MASH, Alien and Top Gun. Good stuff as always.
