Michael J. Fox(I)

Negotiated the deal for Familienbande (1982) from a phone booth outside a now defunct Pioneer Chicken restaurant in Hollywood because he had no phone at home. He was told the network would need to call, and he said he was only home between the hours of four and five. He waited for the call, and fortunately he was there to answer it and secure the sitcom role.

Pain is temporary, film is forever.
