"..In April 2004, during the week of "russian Nights" in Los Angeles, Jack Palance (1919-2006) defiantly refused the title of People's Artist of russia, emphasising that he is Ukrainian and has "nothing to do with russian cinema.".."
I did not know Jack Palance was Ukrainian. Love that. I am American but my Grandparents were Ukrainian. They both came here separately....
Good for him.
