Joe Don Baker(1936-2025)

Said in an interview that if he ever met the writers of Misterio en el espacio (1988) he would "kick [their] asses" for their grilling of Maten a Mr. Mitchell (1975). This did not stop them from sending up another one of Baker's films, Final Justice (1985), in which they ridicule him even more. Baker later said the threat was a joke.

[on working with Sam Peckinpah in El rey del rodeo (1972)] I didn't care for Peckinpah at all. He was one of those little guys who tries to bully big guys and he almost got his ass whipped for trying to do it to me. Every time I was going to throttle Peckinpah, Steve McQueen would come over and calm me down like a brother would.
