I was envious of my buddy Tony when he met actress Marley Shelton. Fortunately, I evened the score at Flashback Weekend last month.
The Sandlot is one of my favorite movies, not just one of my favorite sports movies. Shelton played Wendy Peffercorn, who had a memorable scene with one of the boys.
Of course, Shelton has a much longer resume of parts than just Wendy, but that scene is iconic. Some of her other projects include Bubble Boy, Pleasantville and The Lottery, as well as a couple movies in the Scream franchise.
While talking with Shelton, I mentioned a couple of her roles, but had to add I really loved that famous scene. She smiled big and said that really touches her heart to hear fans speak so fondly of that role and scene.
While I was happy to match Tony with the picture, I was really happier just to meet Shelton. She had been on my list for many years.
