I'm thnking that dental care was a side-job for a blacksmith.<br />So..all of these movie Conans, including Arnold's gap-toothed version, disply way too much annual check-up status to fit the role of a warrior from long ago.<br />Give me a Conti with teeth splayed all over his dental base anyday.DarkoVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572734667248592785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-53887622421083292822011-09-07T09:53:41.195-04:002011-09-07T09:53:41.195-04:00"Conti" -- yes!

And I thought <a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3185/3051501584_d0896480d3_o.jpg" rel="nofollow">Tom Conti</a>, the diminutive and witty English actor would the appropriate foil to star in "Conan-The Barbarian...Not So Much"DarkoVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572734667248592785noreply@blogger.com
