I always get a kick out of watching an old movie and identifying an actor playing a small role who also was in an episode of Seinfeld. Watching "Home Alone" for the umpteenth time last night I noticed that the husband of the elderly lady who gave her plane ticket to Catherine O'Hara at the Paris airport was none other than Bill Erwin, who brilliantly played Sid Fields in:
Episode 58 - The Old Man
Jerry: Mr. Fields?
Sid: What!?!
Jerry: Hi, I'm Jerry Seinfeld, the agency sent me.
Sid: Agency? What agency? The *CIA*?
Jerry: No, no, the--
Sid: Who let you in here?
Jerry: The woman, she--
Sid: Oh *her*. She *steals* from me. Steals my money. She says she doesn't speak English. My *ass* she doesn't speak English. Plays that freakin' "voo-doo" music, tries to hypnotize me. She thinks she's gonna turn me into a zombie and then rob me blind. Well, I wasn't born yesterday. I may drop dead today, but I sure as Hell wasn't born yesterday. Now get the Hell out of my house...
