none. only amerikanjd film made was made 1957(?)
( ibelieve it was of some nine story) mika- these stories
are sacred and do not deserve to be killed by the crappy actors in
hollywood(god i hate that word). furthermore, ol' jd probaly wouldn't
release the rights to anyone unless they were REALLY good. well i

away all mail, so maybe hollywood just can't talk to him.
