Bianca C Byrd (1977 film)?
[edit]Filmography lists a Bianca C Byrd (1977) but there is not listing for this film on IMDb, nor can anything about this film be found on a Google search. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Groundrush (talk • contribs) 02:50, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
Year of birth and age
[edit]IMDB is saying that he born in 1941. Indiewire is saying that he was 78 while Variety is saying that he was 70.
Which is correct?

- IMDB is not considered a reliable source and should only be used in the External links section. Yoninah (talk) 01:11, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
Can his IMDB page be added then? MikaelaArsenault (talk) 08:25, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
- Yes. It is listed under External links. Yoninah (talk) 11:24, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
