  Fuze,you're only as old as you act!!!!  I think he could have stated it better the Fonda film was 12 angry men! And Kennedy also had bit roles on Bonanza.  BTW I'm almost positive the narator is Van Heflin.




    :salute
PS: I'm a young squirt to but remember seeing Bonanza when it was primetime!

Guess I qualify as a really young squirt then. 12 Angry Men is a great movie. Again I thought he meant a more promionent role. My apologies.
When I stay up to 4am and watch '12 O'Clock High' I see alot of  that, many young actors in bit parts, way too many to mention.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

So I'm over 50 and a young squirt, how old are you  1000?   Back in those days just about any up and coming actor would have a spot in shows like that. I thought you meant a starring role which he wasn't.

I assumed some younger guy was asking the question.

I am age 60 and though I hurt like heck from hard work, my older friends still call me a kid, but I get $2 off at the car wash and get the Denny's Senior Special without asking for it.  LOL!

No malice or ill intent towards anybody.  I figured I'd get some flak calling anybody a squirt.

There were various different periods of time when I was a kid my family did not have TV, so some of those series I missed.

I sure wish we had the TV programming of the 1950's and 1960's again.

The actor portraying the know-it-all sounds familiar.  Van Heflin, maybe?  The relatively bald headed guy playing the manager type is also a well known actor, later.

Found the same film on YouTube that can fill the monitor screen (though some of you guys already found it, I bet) :
