carny

Hollywood came calling, and Robertson was cast as a lead in the 1980 film “Carny,” which he also produced.

During preproduction, Robertson leapt from producer to star, appearing alongside Jodie Foster and Gary Busey in the 1980 film “Carny.”

Director “Baz Luhrmann wanted the carny world to provide an enticing location for Parker to cast his spell.”

I’m a carny, and I’ve left the tent.

Combining old-fashioned practicality with the shameless hustle of a sideshow carny and driven by a narcissistic thirst for attention, Davis, who patented the body armor in the early 1970s, certainly makes for a timely protagonist.
