Matrix

I was watching Michael Roemer's film Nothing But A Man from 1964, and I noticed a lady whose lips and eyes were perfectly those of the Oracle in The Matrix from 1999. It turns out it was Gloria Foster, who indeed played Lee in Nothing But A Man and the Oracle in The Matrix.

Ivan Dixon was playing the main character, and that was a treat, also.

There are so many very good actors that we submerge into obscurity under the weight of our peculiar Popular Celebrity: as if Ivan Dixon was born to play in Hogan's Heroes...and nothing else.
