On TV, there is a slapstick comedy team (Abbott & Costello, maybe?) clowning around in a room. Then a distinguished-looking gentleman bursts through a door, sees what's going on, and shouts, "What's the meaning of this!?!" My question: was the gentleman in question *Don Ameche*, in an old film? (It looked a lot like him). Please mail to me, I will followup if I get any replies.
