Also rent "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" while you're at it. Oh yeah, and...Zero was also the original Tevye in the Broadway production of *Fiddler on the Roof* (long before the movie version came out). He also appears in Woody Allen's *The Front*, as Zero had actually been one of those actors (as portrayed in the movie) blacklisted during the McCarthy Era.-- Nanaea
