If you grew up in the 60’s, you remember Little Donnie Holland as the adorable “Butchie” in the Andy Griffith rip-off “The Telly Savalas Show.” Or maybe as “Billy” in the “Lost in Space” knock-off “Moon Family” with Charles Nelson Reilly. After losing out to Ron Howard for a role on “Happy Days,” Donald descended into a life of drugs and alcohol, popping up occasionally on Love Boat, Hollywood Squares, and The Gong Show before becoming a porn actor in the early 80’s. After almost dying, he found Scientology, got married and had kids, wrote a memoir, and was rediscovered in the late 90’s, which led to a decade as the favorite character actor for indie directors. But just as he reached his peak, winning Oscars for Best Actor, Director and Picture, he left to become an MMA fighter and befriended Vladmir Putin, making Russian versions of Rambo movies. Needless to say, there are plenty of tales.
