michaeljcarey, thanks for making those corrections to the cast and characters of The Greatest Man in the World. I read the first comment (Smidgeon-as-Smurch)and was momentarily befuddled; having seen this movie when it was originally on TV, I remember very well Brad Davis's performance as the non-PC hero Smurch.
I was happy to find this on Netflix...it's just as funny 28 years later! Today, of course, his transgressions of drinking, having a girlfriend, and coming from the wrong background may not even considered transgressions,and would probably be given a positive spin in the tabloids and other press.
