Peta Brady (born 1972) is an Australian actress.
 She is best known for being the second actress to play Cody Willis, a role instuituted by Amelia Frid in the TV soap opera "Neighbours".
 Since she left the show, Brady has appeared in the film "Mullet", the TV sitcom "Kath & Kim" and the SBS series "RAN (Remote Area Nurse)".

Leprechaun is a 1993 American horror comedy film written and directed by Mark Jones.
 It stars Warwick Davis in the title role and Jennifer Aniston in her film debut.
 Davis plays a vengeful leprechaun who believes a family has stolen his pot of gold.
 As he hunts them, they attempt to locate his gold to vanquish him.
 The film was originally meant to be more of a straight horror film, but Davis injected humor into his role.
 Re-shoots also added increased gore to appeal to older audiences.
The Lamb is a 1915 American silent adventure comedy/Western film featuring Douglas Fairbanks in his first starring role.
 Directed by W. Christy Cabanne, the film is based on the popular 1913 Broadway play "The New Henrietta", in which Fairbanks co-starred with William H. Crane, Amelia Bingham and a very young Patricia Collinge.
 D. W. Griffith, writing under the pseudonym Granville Barker, along with director Christy Cabanne, essentially expanded the play beyond the plush nouveau riche apartment setting of the play, and provided a western element to the story.
 This would give Fairbanks a chance to show his physical prowess cinematically and loosen the play from what would be stage bound constraints.
 Griffith also altered characters; Fairbanks' character's name is changed to Gerald, with his parent being his mother (Kate Toncray), whereas in the play his character was named Nick with his parent being his father played by Crane.
Duane Davis, the son of NFL Hall of Fame defensive end Willie Davis and Ann Davis, is an American actor who has been in such films as "Ghosts of Mars" and "Paparazzi".

 Davis played Duke DePalma, a former boxer-turned-crime fighter in "Team Knight Rider", a short-lived spin-off series of the original "Knight Rider" TV series.
 He played a recurring character in "Sisters", and has been in other TV shows such as "M.A.N.T.I.S.", "L.A. Law", "A Different World", "What's Happening Now", "Head of the Class", "Little Big League", and "Necessary Roughness".
