I have always liked Sam's work.  I like the comments here about leaving the guy and his wife ALONE, they are just normal folks and  they just want to do normal things out  in the public like most of us.  

I have a fishing friend of 30 + years and he has known Sam for over 40 years.  My friend takes Sam fishing in his driftboat on the McKenzie River.  5-6 years ago my friend called me and asked me if I wanted to go fishing with him and Sam.  I said sure, because my friend knew that I would NOT badger Sam about his successful film career.  We met for a early morning breakfast, I met Sam, we went fishing, caught fish, had a great day on the river.  During the whole day,  we NEVER talked about Sam's career, just plain everyday conversation between 3 guys fishing.  I can tell you, Sam is just a regular everyday guy,  he does NOT have the Hollywood EGO, he is a courteous, respectful, humble man.  At the end of our day, Sam THANKED us for not wanting to talk about his career, or take (cont.)
