Starting in 1941, he did seven years under contract at MGM, where his very first film showed at the very least that he was a gifted mimic of a great young master.

As if this point might not come across otherwise, the campaign changed the pre-event soundtrack Thursday before the speech at Cecil Field Naval Air Station. Instead of the McCain road show's usual songs like U2's "City of Blinding Lights," the speakers played "Danger Zone," the Kenny Loggins pop song made famous in the film Top Gun, a story of another hot-dog naval aviator who overcame...
