Five Easy Pieces...

My Stepfather, William Challee... in a scene from the film "Five Easy Pieces"  with Jack Nicholson. He played Jack's Father. The film was directed by Bob Rafelson. And Fred Roos was the casting director. Fred later went on to cast me as the voice of Wedge Antilles in Star Wars: A New Hope.
