CHARLTON HESTON’S NOSE & THE NRA

Charlton Heston’s acting career may not have been possible were it not for the time he fell and broke his nose, giving him that rugged, stoic look. And that look seems to served him well in his station as president of the National Rifle Association. “To the NRA, it must be like having the backing of all the heroic, righteous characters that Heston has played – not only Moses, Michelangelo, Ben-Hur, Thomas More, Richelieu, Mark Antony and three American presidents, but also astronauts, sports stars, saints and even God himself.” – The New Statesman
