Charles Cahill Wilson (July 29, 1894 – January 7, 1948) was an American screen and stage actor. He appeared in numerous films during the Golden Age of Hollywood from the late 1920s to late 1940s. Born in New York City in 1894, the white-haired, burly actor was often typecast as an earnest police officer, newspaper editor or principal. He appeared in over 250 films between 1928 and 1948, mostly playing small supporting roles with a few sentences. Charles Wilson began his acting career at the theatre, including roles in six Broadway plays between 1918 and 1931. In 1928, he directed the Hollywood comedy Lucky Boy (1928), where he also made his film debut. According to the Internet Movie Database, Lucky Boy was Wilson's only film as a director. His most notable role was probably Clark Gable's "wonderfully aggravated" newspaper boss in Frank Capra's comedy It Happened One Night, which won five Academy Awards in 1935. He was also cast in small roles in other Capra movies such as Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936) and It's a Wonderful Life (1946). Shortly before his death, Wilson appeared as the boss of the Three Stooges in the two-reel comedy Crime on Their Hands (1948).

Francis Veber, né le 28 juillet 1937 à Neuilly-sur-Seine, (Hauts-de-Seine), est un réalisateur, scénariste, producteur, dialoguiste, dramaturge et acteur français. Il est principalement connu en tant qu'auteur de comédies à grand succès dont il a signé le scénario (Le Grand Blond avec une chaussure noire, L'Emmerdeur) ou également la mise en scène (La Chèvre, Les Compères, Les Fugitifs, Le Placard...). Les scénarios de Veber privilégient le burlesque et sont réglés sur une mécanique boulevardière, reposant parfois sur le ressort du duo comique traditionnel comme l'Auguste et le clown blanc. Expatrié aux États-Unis depuis les années 1980, il signe son retour professionnel en France avec Le Dîner de cons qui, sous forme de pièce de théâtre en 1993, puis de film en 1998, lui a valu l'un de ses plus grands succès. Fils du journaliste et écrivain Pierre-Gilles Veber et de la romancière Catherine Agadjanian dite Georgette Paul (1901-1990), Francis Paul Veber est également le petit-neveu de Tristan Bernard, le petit-fils de Pierre Veber et le neveu de Serge Veber. Son fils, Jean Veber, est également réalisateur. Il est par ailleurs l'oncle de Sophie Audouin-Mamikonian, auteure de la série de livres pour enfants Tara Duncan. Francis Veber est en outre, par sa mère, un lointain descendant de la famille princière Mamikonian, qui a dominé l'Arménie durant le Moyen Âge. Sollicité par des monarchistes arméniens pour être prétendant au trône, il a préféré s'en désister au profit de sa nièce Sophie Audoin-Mamikonian. L'un de ses oncles maternels était par ailleurs l'époux de la fille du fondateur des caviars Pétrossian. Francis Veber est né de père juif et de mère arménienne; il déclare à ce sujet: «Deux génocides, deux murs des lamentations dans le sang, tout pour faire un comique.» Son père, journaliste renommé avant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, passe l'essentiel de l'occupation allemande cloîtré chez lui par peur d'être arrêté; il ne retrouve pas de travail dans la presse après la Libération. Sa mère qui l'a fait baptiser dans le rite arméno-grégorien, entreprend alors de faire vivre la famille en écrivant à la chaîne des romans sentimentaux. La famille Veber vit assez chichement et les parents de Francis Veber, peu satisfaits de leurs carrières respectives dans les lettres, l'encouragent à suivre des études pour trouver un métier stable. Médiocre élève, il suit laborieusement des études de médecine, avant de s'inscrire sans plus d'enthousiasme à la Faculté des sciences, pour satisfaire sa famille qui l'imagine alors successivement chirurgien puis ingénieur dans le pétrole. Il finit par renoncer à ses études et, durant son service militaire, devient reporter à Bled, le journal de l'Armée d'Algérie, où il a pour collègues Philippe Labro, Jacques Séguéla, Cabu et Just Jaeckin. Il parvient à placer quelques textes dans la presse et devient, après la fin de son service, journaliste radio à RTL, métier qu'il exerce durant trois ans mais pour lequel il estime rétrospectivement avoir été peu doué. ...

The union produced one child, Dalton Bruce (born October 4, 1989) (who can be seen in Terminator II as "Infant John Connor"). Bruce and Linda divorced circa 1989.
