Hugo Fregonese (April 8, 1908, Mendoza, Argentina — January 17, 1987, Buenos Aires, Argentina) was an Argentine film director who worked both in Hollywood and in Argentina.

A former sports journalist, he attended Columbia University in 1935, then was hired to be a technical advisor for films with Latin American themes. By 1938, he was again living in Argentina. There he worked as an editor, assistant director and short film director.

He made his directorial debut in 1943. In 1949, he directed Apenas un delincuente. Most of Fregonese's American films were westerns and crime melodramas, for example Man in the Attic (1953) and Black Tuesday (1954).

Volodymyr Palahniuk (Ukrainian: Володимир Палагнюк; February 18, 1919 -- November 10, 2006), known professionally as Jack Palance, was an American film actor. During half a century of film and television appearances he was nominated for three Academy Awards, all as Best Actor in a Supporting Role, winning in 1991 for his role in City Slickers.

Constance Smith (22 January 1928 -- 30 June 2003) was an Irish film actress, known as a contract player of 20th Century Fox in the 1950s.

Byron Palmer (21 June 1920 -- 30 September 2009) was an American stage and screen actor and singer. His film credits include Man in the Attic and The Best Things in Life Are Free, while he appeared in Where's Charley? on Broadway.

Frances Elizabeth Bavier (December 14, 1902 -- December 6, 1989) was an American stage and television actress. Originally from the New York theatre, Bavier worked in film and television from the 1950s. She played the continuing role of Aunt Bee on The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry R.F.D. from 1960 to 1970, and won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Comedy Actress for the role in 1967.

Rhys Williams (31 December 1897 -- 28 May 1969) was a Welsh character actor in movies and television, whose career spanned several decades.

He made his film debut in How Green Was My Valley (1941). This movie takes place in rural Wales with a large cast of Welsh characters, but was actually filmed in Hollywood with American, Irish and English actors. Williams, the only genuine Welshman in the cast, was originally hired solely to coach the actors in their Welsh accents; ultimately director John Ford gave Williams a role in the film.[citation needed]

He is recognizable to fans of the TV series Adventures of Superman as a sadistic character in an early episode called "The Evil Three" (1952). His other television appearances were on such programs as CBS's anthology series, The DuPont Show with June Allyson, with Steve Allen in the 1960 episode "Play Acting", and The Lloyd Bridges Show.[citation needed] His later appearances were on Temple Houston, 77 Sunset Strip, The Wild Wild West, Twelve O'Clock High, The F.B.I., Mission: Impossible, Mannix, The Donna Reed Show, Here Come the Brides, and The Andy Griffith Show.

Williams died, aged 71, and his remains are interred at Forest Lawn-Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles.
