Yes, I consider myself very fortunate to have met these two actors. I specially loved Astaire. I think I have all his songs and have seen all his movies. When I asked him for his autograph, he gave it to me with a very nice smile. I made sure to place the autograph somewhere very secure so I won't lose it. I must have put it somewhere so secure that to this day (some 29 years later)  I have not been able to find it! 

Peter Ustinov is a very good choice. He was a very smart and prolific actor, writer, and director of both film and theatre. He was also a great story teller whom I always enjoyed to listen to.

I would have loved to meet Peter Ustinov. Probably one of the most Brilliant and prolific actors of his generation.

This was a very funny video. It is very difficult to talk to someone who is so famous and you don't know. I mean what do you talk about, unless you know a lot about their movies and you then can talk about those.  I have met a number of actors but the ones that I was really happy to meet were Fred Astaire and Tony Curtis.
