Speaking of those Bradbury-esque moments in ICFOS, as an actor myself, I try to imagine Joe Sawyer's reaction to his dialogue.  After years of playing dumb brute tough guys, and dumb brute comic foils, he must have had some strong reaction when he read through his part.  I can imagine him either saying, "What is this &%$%&!  It's like a !*&^#+* poem or sumthin!"
or, "Wow, look at this--they finally give me something decent to say." 

I would love to have heard Sawyer's thoughts on that.
