Archived from groups: alt>movies>silent (more info?)

A couple of weeks ago I was spending way too much time watching Young
Frankenstein, and the last time through I saw something that looked
suspiciously like a very odd Ogle sighting. (This was on 35mm and I
couldn't back it up...)

The brain on the left of the screen, left of the Abnormal brain during
the stealing scene with Feldman, seems to have a label on it saying
Charles Ogle.

Can't say for sure, but it looked like it. Anyone know for sure or do
I need to get to a screening again?

Eric

I just checked the DVD, and it's close but not Ogle.

The visible part of the label says

Charles Opie
MISSIONARY --

It looks like there is something before "Charles" -- perhaps "Dr.", but
it's not clearly in view.

But there's no doubt that it says Opie.

I checked IMDB to see if this was an inside reference to someone who
worked on the film, but it returned no matching names. Google didn't
find those names together either.
