TJ Dillashaw I’ve seen past fighters who don’t seem all there anymore, can hardly walk around or look like the Tin Man, they’ve just been through the wringer. – TJ Dillashaw
Susan Orlean Sense of smell, of course, is only one of those dog qualities that can’t be replicated or improved upon. I’ve been researching dogs in warfare for my book about ‘Rin Tin Tin,’ and I’ve read many accounts of their heroics: carrying messages through battle, alerting troops to enemy planes, and even parachuting behind enemy lines. – Susan Orlean
Shirley Temple I class myself with Rin Tin Tin. People in the Depression wanted something to cheer them up, and they fell in love with a dog and a little girl. – Shirley Temple
Sarah Weinman In 2011, I contributed an essay to Tin House, ‘The Dark Side of Dinner Dishes, Laundry, and Child Care,’ talking about women writers I felt had fallen off the map. – Sarah Weinman
Roger Allam My parents both came from working-class backgrounds, my father particularly. He came from a very poor family, 12 of them lived in a little three-bedroom terrace house in Fulham, it was very small with an outside loo and a tin bath on the scullery wall. – Roger Allam
Rob Page If we have to dig a trench and put our tin hats on at times we will do it and we proved we can do that as well as play. – Rob Page
Rich Moore I loved the Scarecrow and the Tin Man and the Lion and you could kind of see the actors’ faces in them. It wasn’t an entirely new face sculpted around them. What made those characters so human and appealing to me was seeing those great actors underneath there. They weren’t lost behind a bunch of appliances. – Rich Moore
Rene Russo I loved ‘Tin Cup’ because even though that character had her own career and was strong, she was pretty confused. I think she was my favorite character because she was well-rounded. She didn’t have it all together. – Rene Russo
Rene Russo Tin Cup’ was great because I loved the comedy aspect of it, so that was good. – Rene Russo
Peter Wright I’ve had to do all kinds of jobs to pay the rent. I’ve even worked in a Cornish tin mine. – Peter Wright
