RIP Mr. Goorwitz. Allen Garfield was one of my favorite actors. Great slimeball in Busting (1974) with Elliott Gould and Robert Blake. A familiar face to all movie fans. R.I.P.

Mort Drucker's artwork for MAD was my favorite part of the magazine. The movie and TV parodies were sometimes more entertaining than their original sources, and Mr. Drucker's illustrations were so densely packed with funny images and surprise cameos (the Peanuts characters were frequent guests) that scanning them carefully after reading through the parody was a feast for the eyes.
RIP, and thanks for all the laughs as one of the top members of "the usual gang of idiots."
