 | | Louis that Arkin caught a casting director's eye, who later met with the actor to tell him about a comedy troupe he was assembling in Chicago and if he wanted a job, it was open. | | | But after another year as a struggling actor at 29 years old, Arkin called the director and asked if the offer was still open. | | | Arkin was a member of mid-50's folk group The Tarriers; in 1956 they had their biggest hit with a version of the "Banana Boat Song" (it reached #4 on the Billboard charts), the same year that Harry Belafonte recorded his more famous version. |

| | This may be the richest deal in festival history; Miramax purchased “Happy, Texas” for $10 million in 1999. | | | But the film builds to a stunningly funny climax, one that is a moment of familial growth without an ounce of schmaltz. | | | The plot's about "a family determined to get their young daughter into the finals of a beauty pageant take a cross-country trip in their VW bus," but I was among the Sundancers who really enjoyed this R-rated ensem-com, so believe me when I say the skimpy synopsis doesn't do the flick justice. |
