@lovablecinemaaddiction: Phil Silvers was born on this day back in 1911, he was an Emmy and Tony Award-winning American comedic actor, best known for his iconic, fast-talking portrayal of Master Sergeant Ernest G. Bilko in the 1950s hit sitcom The Phil Silvers Show. Earning the nickname "The King of Chutzpah," his manic energy and "lovable con artist" persona set the template for generations of sitcom characters. Phil Silvers plays the conniving, fast-talking Otto Meyer in the 1963 epic comedy It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. His character is one of several motorists who learn of a buried treasure from a dying thief, sparking an unhinged, greed-driven race across the California desert.
