    Andy Griffith did so well with this part. Kind of a "simple, everyman" portrayal. He could really play different characters well. I like his portrayal of this character. I could feel his angst in the bar with that girl. He knew he shouldn't, yet how often would a guy like him ever have a chance with someone like her!?!? Yet, you could feel his anxiety over the whole thing. Great job!

      You couldn't be more right.💯💯 Now everybody thinks they're a celebrity. Also, with social media, such as Instagram and Tic Tok, everybody calls themselves "influencers" and, most of the time, they're influencing people to do really stupid and dangerous things. I know every generation thinks theirs is the best, but I really worry about the generations growing up with reality TV, cell phones, and social media. They will never get to know just how sweet and innocent things used to be. 😔

    Sadly such is life: Trust no one. All are actors to a degree; even beware more of some stranger who suggest they are involved professionally as one... This guy was too stupid to be true. He must have realised how she had been playing him from the start, as soon as she mentioned the previous tenants by name? However, his thinking was clouded, because of being dissatisfied with who he was, and unthankful for what he had. Same goes for the wannabe robbers. Love the conclusion: Learn to appreciate and treasure what you had been granted, and be true to who you are. Accordingly the young girl was also able to make her wholesome choice.

Wasn't there enough money in the budget for some extras? Or was this an apartment building for deaf people? Laughable story.
