John Huston's birthday
Written by Al Barger
Published August 05, 2003

John Huston was born 97 years ago today, on August 5, 1906.

Among many achievements in a long career, Huston directed The Maltese Falcon, The Treasure of the Sierre Madre, The African Queen, and- personal pick- Night of the Iguana.

He was also a screenwriter for some of these, and an actor. Angelica Huston is his daughter. More impressive, his daddy was ol' Scratch himself, Walter Huston.

Unreformed hawkish Hoosier hillbilly and sometimes candidate Al Barger runs the still squeezin' down the psychodelic Kentucky moonshine at MoreThings.com, what with the paranoid religious visions and the Pentacostal music and visions of God and Sarah Palin and anarchy running amok and such. Somebody oughta call the cops to report his out of control freedom of conscience. Till they come to take him away somewhere where he can't hurt anyone else, you can check out his weekly column of NEW ALBUM RELEASES.
