Blind Item #8 - Reader Blind

This beloved deceased foreign born actor had a solid acting career until he discovered a talent for a genre he had not acted in before and his career went up several notches. He had several successful films with this group of writer/directors including films based on a short lived TV series they did together.

There is a documentary coming out. It is not about the actor but he is interviewed in it about something that happened to him.  The documentary is about a phenomena that is the subject of much debate.  The actor had an encounter when he was as a young man in which he was taken away for awhile and he also had a number other sightings over the years as well. As a result, he became deeply interested in this phenomena and belonged to several groups and attended events where people who had the same experiences could get together and discuss this.
