Eight out of ten. Didn't know about one movie -- never saw it -- and went too quickly and didn't see the 2001 for Planet of the Apes.
7/10 Got tripped up on Pee Wee, he was in second Pee Wee movie.
Wasn't he the ringmaster in that one?
8/10 I remember when he wasn't in the first Pee-Wee Herman movie, he was in the second one called Big Top Pee-Wee.

9 out of 10. I haven't seen anyone of his movies in ages. R.I.P Kris.
"He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction".
takin every wrong direction...
10/10. Though, Kris was in "Big Top PeeWee", the seque!. Where's "Cisco Pike"? I liked that movie.

including me...
10/10; I guessed about half of them. Hard to imagine what Streisand's 'A Star is Born' would have been like had Elvis done the movie like she'd originally wanted. It would have been amazing hearing them sing together, at least.
If Elvis was in the movie, it would have taken the spotlight off of the Babs. Being the egomaniac that she is, she wouldn't have stood for that.

8/10.

I also "got word," years back, that he was a captain in the U. S. Army.
Why any man would want to leave THAT, befuddles me.

My guess: lots of reasons.
His love was music, he wanted to pursue that. The pursuit of happiness is everything 🤙🏽
7/10.
Rest In Peace Kris Kristofferson.
