I thought that tuba player looked familiar. Guess I should rewind a bit. The Ralphie I'm referring to is the blond kid with glasses in the 1983 classic A CHRISTMAS STORY (the film TBS plays for 24 hrs straight on X-Mas.) The actor's real name is Peter Billingsley. Today (at 38 yrs. of age) Pete is still in showbiz. Though now he mostly has smaller film roles like in The Break-up, Elf and yes, Iron Man. And like all actors in the C and D list category, Pete has done his fair share of 30 sec. product hawking. He starred as Messy Marvin for Hershey’s Syrup and (as I recently discovered) is in 2 scenes of one of the most overplayed BIG RED, Jingle-riffic commercial of all time (see below). My apologies for jamming this song back in your head.
I'm gonna shoot you for this!
ReplyDeleteI can't even let myself click on it because I know which commercial it is!
ReplyDeleteYou'll put your eye out!!!
ReplyDeletePeter Billingsley is a big time director now isn't he? I think he collaborates with Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau all the time.
