William Devane was in a TV movie called falling from the sky about an Canadian airliner that runs out of fuel. He was exceptionally good in this movie and it should be mentioned Paddymaxwell (talk) 21:23, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Birth Year[edit]

Why is 1937 used? The IMDB reference given has a date of 1939, along will all my other sources. Thisdaytrivia (talk) 00:03, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Thisdaytrivia: There's a printed newspaper clip showing 1939, and this one showing he was class of 1957, which works out to be 18, and it ties in. [[1]] TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 17:20, 10 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
