[Groop]Sergio in the Movies

[Ruben A]

Sergio was also in the Red Foxx smash-hit "Norman, is that you?" in 
which he plays a motel manager.  I haven't seen it, but apparently it is 
a not-so-good movie, but I suspect Sergio's voice is not dubbed.  

Another credit is "Viva Max!", directed by Jerry Paris, but I haven't 
been able to find out what Sergio did in that.

And finally, not actually *in* the movie, but Sergio scripted sight gags 
(using cartoons) for the recent movie "George of the Jungle".

Ruben.

Gary, can you confirm that the director of To Kill is "Montezuma"?
