Dom DeLuise portrayed Marvin Zindler as Melvin P. Thorpe in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, but the two never actually met until the late 90s live on Eyewitness News of all places.
WATCH THAT MEETING HERE
It's as wild as the picture suggests. I purposely created the above graphic with a comic book feel in mind. Can you blame me? The whole event seems like a cartoon. The two even compare themselves to cartoon characters.
On a side note, I had to cut out some of what DeLuise said. Live on the air, he talked about how his next project is a porno movie...he was joking of course but went into too much detail for a family audience! I can just imagine how people behind the scenes responded to that humor.
BTW, I added more classic 70s Marvin stories to the page since the last time I posted. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
