Dark Shadows & I Never Sang For My Father

Hey gang,

I was watching this excellent film the other day and spotted several Dark Shadows alumni in the flick.  Appearing along with Gene Hackman and the late Melvyn Douglas were Lovelady Powell (Portia Fitzsimmons) as Mr. Hackman's paramour, and Daniel Keyes (The Eagle Hill Cemetery caretaker) as a medical doctor.

Mr. Keyes portrayed a physician, who was assisting Mr. Hackman in finding a suitable nursing home for his elderly, and recently widowed father, Melvyn Douglas.  It was strange seeing Mr. Keyes portraying a character who was so lucid and in command (so unlike the wonderfully spacey Eagle Hill Cemetery caretaker character).

You know, the film's title, "I Never Sang For My Father," could almost also apply to Barnabas' somewhat strained relationship with his own stern and domineering father, Joshua, imo.
